that is one great interview

my favorite-

NewOrleansSaints.com: So the Saints brought you in and you really didn’t look around anywhere else. Fair to say that you liked the offer enough to sign it this morning and what you heard from Tom Benson, Mickey Loomis, his staff and the coaching staff. Did you feel that comfort level right away when you arrived here?

Ben Grubbs: I did. Everything that’s important to me, the New Orleans Saints have it top to bottom. I met Owner Tom Benson, I just talked to some of my teammates in there – Jermon (Bushrod), Jahri (Evans) and (Jonathan) Vilma. I’ve heard good things about all those guys. I knew that I couldn’t go wrong. When you talk about winning, the Saints know how to win. Just the mentality here and the mindset, it’s all about winning. The Saints kind of build the organization around character and winning.

I'm not afraid to say that after knowing decades of pitiful to pathetic Saints then reading this stuff when you know it's sincere and correct kinda chokes me up.

+1

Don't get me wrong, Nicks is a great player. But I was pretty excited to hear that we got Grubbs to replace him. I remember him at Auburn where he was a really good player. I think he'll be that much better playing with the Saints.
