The New Orleans Saints are ready to kickoff the 2019 regular season and finally put the 2018 season firmly in the rear-view mirror. The Who Dat Nation on the Gulf Coast and across the world has their eyes set on another long postseason run. This is the time for blind faith, optimism, and hope - hope that Drew Brees can win his first MVP, hope that the Saints can win their second Lombardi, and hope that the Atlanta Falcons can suffer another embarrassing loss on a national stage.
For me, I have an oddly specific hope - a request, if you will - of Sean Payton and the New Orleans Saints: Please, for the love of all things that are Drew Brees, embrace your role as villains in the NFL.
