Haha my Drew Brees story is that he was dating the captain of the dance team at the same time I was dating the future captain, so during our senior year we'd go watch the girls dance and then double-date afterward. He led our school to its first and only football state championship that year in addition to being a National Honor Student (as was most of the team) so we've all believed in that magic arm of his when others haven't.

And thanks for the nice words b/c he absolutely fits the bill of a role model and model citizen. Katie Couric did a touching interview with he and his wife about the immense philanthropic work the two have done for the city of New Orleans and the projection between the team and the city after Hurricane Katrina. It's almost inexplicable how much the Saints mean to that city and the entire Gulf Coast region. When 85% of the city was underwater I don't think anyone could have EVER foreseen that just a few years later New Orleans would have its first ever sports champion - and with Mardi Gras just a week away!
