1.Porter's Super Bowl pick-6...I literally lost it. Lost total control. My brother called and I cried like a baby on the phone: "They did it, oh my God they did it, they did it, oh my God, oh my God!..." I didn't think it would be so before it happened, but this was bigger than any of LSU's baseball or football titles hands down.

2.Hartley's FG vs Vikes. I just sat on my couch in disbelief holding my head between my hands. I thought they were going down for sure with Favre driving. I remember being sick to my stomach because they were gonna blow it at home after all the magic that year. I was relieved more than anything.

3.Steve Gleason's blocked punt to open Dome in '06. I teared up, screaming at the top of my lungs. And it was against the FALCONS!

4.Porter's pick vs Favre. Dodged a huge bullet.

5.Hakim drops the ball. There is a God.

6.Benson hires Mora & Finks.

7.Dome Patrol's goal line stand in Pittsburgh to clinch 1st playoff berth in '87.

8.'06 Divisional Round win vs Philly. The OL & Deuce jamming it in Philly's arse for the last 8 minutes for the win and trip to first NFC Title Game.

9.'91 win in Arizona to clinch 1st division title.

10.'09 Saints 38 Patriots 17 on Monday Night Football.


Honorable Mention (no particular order):
-Signing Drew Brees & hiring of Sean Payton

-Beating the defending Super Bowl champs in St. Louis in 2000. Aaron Brooks' 1st start.

- '06 demolition in Dallas on Thursday Night Football

-'01 comeback in St. Louis. They were down 34-6 at half. Scored 25 in the 3rd quarter to hang on for a 34-31 win. Carney hits the game winning FG with 1 second left.

-'92 beating Steve Bono & the 49ers offense to a pulp in the Dome.

I didn't put Gilliam or Dempsey because I'm not old enough. These are just the biggest for me.
