I don\'t think he is drunk. I heard him do an interview on a radio show during Super Bowl week and the best way to describe the interview was awkward. He is not a good speaker at all.

I thought his speech was very good. That's who Rickey is so why change anything. He said on WWL during the week that he wouldn't go up there with a written speech and that he would speak from his heart and he did. He was never one for words. He would let his play do the talking.

Way to bring your "A" game, Ricky. Guess that is what happens when you bring a fricking towel with you to the podium instead of a speech.

When they cut over to shots of Rice and Smith, you could tell they were trying so hard not to burst out laughing.


Who cares, congrats Rickey

Poor guy just gave the most important speech of his life. You see how nervous he was, sweating it out. We're lucky the country bumpkin from Pohokee(sp?) even remembered his name.

I don't care about the speech. I was just glad to see a Saint giving one.

OMG, what a terrible speech. How many times did he say Home Town? He didn't once mention any of his teammates from Saints. Hardly a thing about his playing time on the team.

Seriously... asking Rickey Jackson to do a speech is like asking your dog to create an Excel spreadsheet.

Dude was put on this earth to tackle people, not invent lasers and shite.
