On the recordJanuary 19, 2010
The Saints' positive impact on our city is immeasurable. They have done more for New Orleans than any other professional sports franchise has done for any other American city. Aside from the short-term joy the team's success has brought to New Orleans, the Saints' record has put the city back on the map, displaying to the Nation that we are back for the long term. The endless media coverage, nonstop showcasing of the region's unique culture, and undeniable camaraderie created among the New Orleans 'Who Dat' nation are all the results of the Saints' incredible season. This is just the rallying cry the city needed. New Orleans is better than ever, thanks in large part to the Saints.
