Quarterback Drew Brees and Coach Sean Payton help in Gulf Coast Effort

Quarterback Drew Brees and Coach Sean Payton of the New Orleans Saints are jumping in to help support the families and businesses in the gulf coast. The quarterback and the Saints team-organization are raffling of a Saints Super Bowl Ring" in order to raise proceeds [$1 million]to support the gulf coast communities and their way of life; those who are out of work because of the devastation of the oil spill.  For $2 dollars, the fans will have a chance to win a Saints Super Bowl Ring. The one that each player will be receiving in a couple of weeks. This will be the first time in history that a Super Bowl Ring will be raffled off. The team was able to bring hack the confidence and moral of the city after hurricane Katrina. The team was able to win the NFL Championship in February. Now, the team is helping in the gulf coast cleanup efforts. A website is provided for those who want to help out can go to www.saintsgulfcoastrenewal.org

Meanwhile, Drew and Coach Payton visited the Wildlife and Fishing Organization where they saw the  "brown drenched pelicans being cleaned up by the workers. Drew said that this was heart wrenching to see and that the workers were frantically saying," bring them back, bring them back.'

When asked about the President looking to emancipate to "kick some ass." Drew said that they would not know what [Drill] they would put the president in they are looking to be in the east coast this August for the season. He also said that Coach Payton has had a chance to see him [president] to play,but he had not. So, may be while on the east coast he'll get a chance to [play ball ] with the president.http://www.cnn.com/2010/US/06/08/louisiana.pelican.hospital/index.html
