Nice to see something genuinely positive issue from an organization that has otherwise become such an overwhelmingly negative spectacle.

Perhaps without influences like Vilma & G. Williams around, the Saints can build from this & lead by example (but in a good way this time).

“This statue is about coming through adversity. It’s about finding your heroes. It’s about commitment and a rebirth for all.”

This is bigger than football. This breaks down all barriers of human complexity and reminds us what we are all capable of. Steve and his family are truly carrying the torch of compassion, humility, and perseverance.

In these unstable times, it’s nice to know we can still look past our vantage point and see true examples of what we are all capable of in love.

My Dad was a Saints fan since the team’s birth until the day he died of ALS on February 1st. I watched the disease slowly rob him of every bit of movement, his voice, and his ability to breathe. I hate to see Steve (or anyone else) go through the same thing.

Does he really think the Superdome will exist 100 years from now?
