Most Super Bowl rings have similar features. The team's name and logo usually appear on the face. The date of the game, that year's emblem, and player numbers and positions also appear somewhere on the ring. The Saints followed suit and did just that...and so much more.

Saints fan are very thankful this year for their team.á Never in franchise history has the team gone a perfect 10-0 to start the season, for that matter only once before has the team ever had a run close to this.

It's time to get on board the bandwagon, and there's still plenty of room! Your invitation requires only one thing...be positive. For those who still are not sure of the ability of this yearÆs New Orleans Saints, I would like to remind you: Never in our history have the Saints started 8-0. That means as of right now we cannot haveáa losing season. Hell, for that matter, one more win means ...

Gumbo is always better the second time around! My first serving was served to my guests on May 29, 2009.á It was so well received that I thought it would be nice to defrost for a second helping. I hope you enjoy... á It is second nature to people in southern Louisiana, all gumbo starts with a roux. What is a roux? Tangible, roux: a binding agent that consists of flour and butter.
