Drew Brees sure can throw 'em. So, in his honor, here's a poem!
ESPN ^ | 12/30/09 | Rick Reilly

In New Orleans town The fans hit their knees, Thanking good heaven For a Saint named Brees.

Dozens of QBs All tried and all failed To do what dear Drew Has nearly nailed:

Take the Suff'rin Saints Out of their black hole And drop them into A real Super Bowl.

Misfits, scatter arms, Collections of bums -- Only good for selling Wheelbarrows of Tums.

For 42 years They whiffed at a ring. Try to name them all? Sure, but this might sting:

One owned a Heisman. His name was Wuerffel. But once he turned pro, He was just err-ful.

But Drew stomped and Cried Crocodile Tears
When he and the team crapped the bed against the Buccaneers

The Saints aren't getting anywhere near the superbowl.

They've shot their wad and are in a hole.

It does not matter. The winner of the Super Bowl will come from the AFC not the NFC

Awww, now, the Saints could go to the Super Bowl.
They could buy tickets- or sell hotdogs.

Every little Brees
Seems to whisper "TDs"
Name the QBs
Who can do it like Brees
Most of 'em ain't
Near as good as the Saint
There's darn few
Like Drew

Brees' arm is just fine;
But its the end of the line;
Dem Saints ain't that great;
They petered out late;
They're so 2009!

Isn't that the coolest thing? I could watch it over and over again. On top of all of his talent, Drew and his wife are lovely people and are actively involved in charity work here in the city.
