    If the shoes fits, wear it, so on Tuesday the NFL's pre-eminent kicker, Morten Andersen, was unanimously elected into the Saints Hall of Fame. For Andersen, 48, the Saints Hall is expected to be the first step along the road to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.

    One of my favorite Saints !

    (not to mention the one who got me interested in the Saints in the first place)

    I met Morten at a local event about a year ago, and despite the fact that he was playing for the Falcons at the time, there was no doubt that the Saints were still the team in his heart. He spoke for a long time about how he had received a message from Tom Benson saying that whenever he would be eligible the entire Saints organization would support his candidacy for the NFL hall of fame.
