cheering crowd fed felt football home hurricane lost obviously personally regardless
It felt like an away game. The crowd obviously was cheering for their home team. But that's irrelevant. We lost a football game. . . . I felt personally like we fed them on a platter, and they ate. . . . Regardless of where we're living, regardless of Hurricane Katrina, we lost. No excuses.
against errors fellow giants hurricane mental mistakes practice road san speak throw travel
We are not going to throw that up there as an excuse. I'm not, ... If I could speak for my fellow teammates, I don't think they'll tell you that being on the road and having to travel to practice or being in San Antonio is a distraction. We made mental errors and made mistakes against the Giants in that game. That's how it is. It had nothing to do with Hurricane Katrina.
board fans football games hurricane loved orleans people regardless sitting trying win
Our fans loved us before the hurricane came. They've wanted us to win football games for 30 years. We should win football games for them regardless of the disaster. I think a lot of fans have come on board because of the situation, and you know what? We're all for it. It's not about the New Orleans Saints. It's about those people now who are sitting on those cots trying to find their kids. That's what it's about.
coming focused football gives harder homeless hurricane initiative orleans people saints saying smarter super team watching win
I keep saying this, but before the hurricane got here, we were focused. The New Orleans Saints football team was focused to try and win a Super Bowl. By the hurricane coming and the homeless people that are here now watching us play, it gives us a little more initiative to play harder and play smarter and go out and win a Super Bowl.
cell coach head hell hurricane phone player pull question sideline
I'm only going to have one question for him, and it has nothing to do with Hurricane Katrina. How in the hell can a head coach pull out a cell phone on the sideline and not get fined and a player can pull out a cell phone and get fined $30,000?

We lost a football game that I felt we should have won.
emotional everywhere feels game good kept orleans people sitting sleep watching words
It was very emotional for us. It feels real good because we know all they went through, all they lost. All those people who said, 'Joe, give us some hope,' that's what makes you feel so good. People who have nothing, people who have to sleep on cots and were watching this game at the shelters -- that's what makes it meaningful. We want to take that with us everywhere we go. Their words kept going through my mind. . . . It's not about the New Orleans Saints. It's about those people sitting on cots with their kids.

cried drop fly four reading whatever
Reading the people's lips: 'Where's the food? Where's water?' ... They were there for four days. I mean, drop something out of the sky. Fly helicopters over and drop something, whatever you have to do. That's what killed me, man. I'm cried out. I'm just cried out.
believe bigger calls football nfl simple whether whoever
Believe that, ... Whether I'm in the NFL or in 10-15 years when I'm out of the NFL, no one's bigger than the NFL, and whoever the commissioner is he calls the shots, simple as that.
