We're doing right now -- can't -- that you saw him this was different things unity. I have no idea what that everybody else did so I'll excitement any you know -- brought up by incident different coaches go about their business that always wow when I went in this thing that -- bounds in the coach Martin and Jerry Glanville was the one day. I'll go to Prague my first year is nineteen Hendry. And Jerry Glanville has the whole team. You know well things we practice him to go to team meetings that night he said no luck fellas -- on out party as a team. And he called -- back Q of these wings. And we had three busloads -- Oakland hit the count and bucket. And hope he said if you come -- before midnight. He goes you better about the play are prominent cuts. And he goes and I don't know if you rookies -- place even -- to so many you can party on the ice it wake up that way they'll hope that a great -- was. -- gonna have a regular early morning practice. He wanted to see who can hang on night and now. The act guys stretch the next morning -- -- trying to recover and Nolan MMI Glanville. Is that you know we going out on a different clubs on the bus -- as a team. -- the most beautiful women you ever won at the line. Was following -- -- everywhere. Something. The coach and look at these girls just on them riled Ohio and -- case told me cornerbacks gotten Oklahoma. He said and it because -- -- them to me it says that's the that's the opening victory he makes this. That Jericho to meet him there now of these women in the follow Robbins counties. Don't believe -- he paid the girls the. Are all young young young. And these are some of those gold club girls that -- six figures goal and program six figures yet he had note that these wire when you run of the mill. My girls a higher and I'm not saying coach calamity do anything he just wanted him to follow him morale. And and it's showing on the team that don't think -- good look at all the studs on the stellar and his team look for the women follow me around so. I never got over that and and I remember. You know we stand on all night that you wanted to. That next morning about the practice full speed to see how we handle -- all right enemy -- -- that if you hit it would be you'd never get over the fact that you couldn't go. He wanted to stay out past midnight and effect that he had escorts to be able saudis these owners all know that that didn't bother me because it. -- on the Dallas way over his head it right climbed on the night saying. He's ugly man right but he was always wear black like Al -- -- easy to -- area that whoever knows that dedicated yet Alice and Johnny Cash don't know if it was. It was something Athens and is it and -- is backing college time -- they can visible and you know it's begun and after curfew and be ready for a practice the next day. But here on one and you team on trying to be accepted and do whatever it takes -- yet obviously a combined three of four hours. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- And work with teammates before he. Comin' back Saints I mean David Thomas takes into the radio volatile Bradley. Always probably a hair and a bogey -- of you guys big out of this is sports felt on WW it's. Exports to your own Saints radio WWL because not a welcoming Saints tight end David Thomas David thank you so much the donuts we appreciate it I certainly don't guess. David has can't go for it this far. It's been good come every day we I think -- -- teams -- rather to work hard and it's been really competitive camp really physical camping would push through a lot of stuff than. It's been really good horse. And David look at that this morning an outstanding practice. A number -- big plays he made tough catches and it seems like now at times you know people wanna talk about -- Jeremy Shockey means that his team. And now will know by the trust factor between drew Lance Moore is seems like you've developed a relationship -- that he really trust you and in the stands where you gonna be in the row. Vote on the go in this office is important understand -- -- no matter what restaurant and you have a chance to have to get the ball and so it's important work hard every day no matter no matter what's going on there really earn the trust the quarterbacks in the coaches and you know every day -- start over -- him with a clean -- and and that's important keep pushing through everything. And David myself you know playing fifteen years professional football to me Allison may ease. And how quickly. You know you're able to pick up things and actually play in a real game last year. That he did did you treated just like cramming Coke bottle are suddenly developed helped the team out because. I mean I'd -- I you know you probably have bought the team in there a couple of weeks and it wasn't even a week then all of a sudden. You know real game make -- place. It was definitely took me about my college days. You know burly center employed homes stay in the playbook but. A lot of low low Canada from from coach Malone -- tight ends coach working with me in. Of course all the other side Benson and the quarterbacks and it was a it was a 'cause there's a group effort for -- Lot of work and that in the two whole season while we're going to let you know it's a new year and we got a lot of work to do. And David did you ever envisioned you playing at University of Texas a at a high level. You noted as the -- -- not even know you played any fullback at that Texas. But then -- isn't the point where you in the NFL that it. The more you can do evolves like coach being tell you look I think he can help a simple bike you just accept that responsibility. You know if if if they wouldn't go to back their failure to do it so you know later said earlier -- when your number's called just step up and really enjoyed both a challenge that of one -- in the backfield and moves is good experience for me in. Just don't try to do everything I can help him. -- -- Dave thomas' us basic -- -- -- Saints radio WW they -- talked about the -- she when you came to New Orleans be with Brady become more breeze. And then this year the three quarterbacks you've been associated with. All altogether the same time Brady last week brief databases and innuendo -- Vince Young they have a pop DA did you see these guys again it's the same time the pre season. Dad didn't. He and Jordan C Tom of course all the guys like New England a lot of different still there and we gotta get a lot of good work against them and well affords him this to win when we did when we -- so receive it -- -- long -- -- right now -- -- work to -- -- that point. You've been in some versatile offense -- College in new England and here in New Orleans a great. Great quarterbacks in all three places. What was different about these -- and David is it was a some similarities there's like by the sit -- and the way you have to pick things up the similarities maybe across the -- Allowed to become any dispute writing. Thought there there's a lot of similarities on the -- you start some. With the -- -- coaches just did not -- -- forces play for a lot of good coaches and minister that the quarterbacks -- but played through -- through the best quarterbacks out there and I think anytime you have a great head coach -- recorder recchi gets us be successful on that you know out of forces we have some teams -- that the both of them. And David now. Would you experience in the NFL. -- -- getting better you get worse what do you feel individually. That you need to work on obvious you can improve and any area but what what's one area that's probably been the biggest struggle. Playing in the NF those that run blocking court against guys maybe. That -- that's a big son of a gun and you know trying to have the proper technique is that one phase that you always will have to improve on. Considering the competition in the NFL. I think. Just not everytime they can improve and run blocking category not something we try to take pride in us. There's being physical and and -- moving on scrimmage but. You know our -- across the board and if so every time and to get better among we -- -- better kitchen and run better routes and so I think that's important every day the -- really evaluate yourself and evaluate the film you bulldogs put on the field and then I really learn from learn from what you're doing. -- now let's -- Spain David has -- we use as the players about food music in these poets but. Let's say we're going to watch Texas and Texas -- in Miami and Alston and about an outcome and Dave Thomas don't take us out somewhere. What where where would you take his team would have been witnesses although inclusion is barbecue -- Minnesota when he hot spots and you it UT. There's a lot well first personal take your breakfast we'll red river cafe. This in the -- -- this afternoon game or go to someone somewhere say. Matzo -- of his Mexican food and then after the game we'll go do some barbecue out of out of Salt Lake. Now that the most important question -- do we do we mean -- -- go out after that I guess six review plays go on a lot of stuff happened downtown it's history. You give Beckett takes as much it to give -- -- -- has been all we could go back when you get a chance to watch him play. I try to go back you know every chance again I just go and asked him -- game this past year. Nearly summer get a chance during the summer and Spurrier took Novak can conceal the players and coaches and please support me give back his statistics that so much for me in the support we give back there and in the give back something. If founded David number one Dolphin history the last four years and keeps -- what I could you improve. Do you guys that something that you have to focus on it is always room for improvement to kind of humble yourself to keep moving forward is it. Well no that's that's he won a Super Bowl what you have success from their -- of valuing -- and then there was going to be the best so it's important for us not every complacent to always stay humble and and to be honest -- ourselves that that there's stuff we knew better and just keep working. Saints tight end David Toms David thank you so much could look the rest -- what -- got stronger and Saints had and David Thomas joining us right day here. Saints radio WW FA MFA him and that common guy who comes in here may issue of Bobby. And really puts on a good show taken advantage of opportunities sign at the the injuries to tight end Darnell Dinkins in Billy Miller that was lost for the season. He comes in on September the fifth right the Saints -- around quickly and wind up playing. The Detroit Lions and the guy who comes up Bobby starting eight games may see appearing in 1535. Receptions three or 56 yards and a touchdown. But the way he was able to block him coming simply fullback in some games as well a lot of versatility and for his effort to Saints resigning in April to a one year deal. Yet you know the more you can do and Jackson they went back in the play fullback dealing with all the -- to be going get the job done. And so yeah yeah accepted that role but to me the most amazing thing though. With how quickly was able to contribute. And their first game and the Saints uniform I mean the acumen even -- week. And understand that concept and go out there and contribute. And step up to the plate itself in the -- standpoint I'm telling you bagels a long way. I trust factor with the coaches and that we can put them out their and he knows what he's doing. He's not just because I thought the you'd be Indies to two weeks right NN has been a week ago that -- that and you know he was utilized in the post season. If you look at them out just three catches for 32 yards as long as the seventeenth. But that's a guy quit being trusses and and I'll tell you this no matter who's to quarterback. It seems like all of them whether it's Patrick Ramsey cheese and -- -- he Drew Brees as an outlet like today you then all the receivers in receptions. Any Justine is a more reliable pass catcher even at times that it Jeremy -- In other than other than the quarterback was anybody that had more to learn last year than David Toms did knowing that you said. Tight end fullback slot guy. Yeah iron short yardage situation I mean. Put him in motion and all -- yet. I mean he he actually did more things in Jeremy Shockey did Jeremy Shockey never really that Africa all lined up at fullback right David Thomas had to do that and I mean. He did it with. 89 -- kind of flowed right in. You know talked -- no word from you -- it. In bits and so revote idea and that'd -- you go back that was it Dave Campbell moved from Michigan. Really don't began in the -- you hear them like Dave Thomas -- and at T he immediate -- I don't know if you isn't surprised. As how quickly picked an advocate this guy's gotta you gotta have stated that national scholar athlete if you know when he had as soon and you -- it's as -- as. All the time leading or tied in receivers in in Texas here's to on the best blocking tight end -- -- -- course was meant and that's a championship team and in. -- folk -- Bill Belichick. In the end Sean Payton so you just look at -- across the board mean Mack Brown is Marco run Belichick's smug coach Sean Payton this Marcos of these guys. Out of like small player. Well I mean it just a progression of things and a man I'm glad you brought that up I mean Mack Brown. Dusty necessarily run a pro offense I'm not sure but he's got pro players that come out of his program every year and so therefore you kind of have to put two and two together and say he gets these gallery to go in the NFL -- and men. David Thomas -- just one of those guys that. You know the heck he came here is like. And Bobby you I think he brought up the best I mean he came in here equals one it's like the guy knows it's like he'd been a part of the top may have -- They entire training camp. Yeah -- know the you know it goes a long way also. Because the only big compared. I guess. You know study a final are cramming for a final maybe behind and in you know you gotta make you can agree. It is Tennessee wouldn't GPA was and University of Texas. But he also gave credit and this shows you -- kind of coaching staff that we have been he said that coach Malone. And you know working -- him and putting index at times we could contribute. From the get go yes but that's still important player coach relationship in -- -- and the saint. As far as a tight end position I think coach Malone has been an outstanding job when you look at the productivity. All the same -- dealing -- in his Billy Miller also comes on and a Nolan -- outstanding. You know season so assailant whoever they plug in at night and they've gotten the job done that's why I'm gonna look at Terry Malone. And what he's done I think this could you couldn't beat a better place to be like -- Jimmy Graham he still learning football and yet that type of coach. And that -- quarterback Drew Brees yeah he's in the right place right time when you're dealing little. You know those individuals to make you better for the phone to go for the. All on the Iowa Paul thank you for calling -- UW real. Appreciate it very difficult personal -- great as usual. I have 22 historical. Into the death like to get there but -- -- then. Double one Hokies at one time like gets you catch a pass out of the backfield. Running toward that didn't decide in the don't stadium. Hit it out of bounds. One -- the bandit was coming up that are dependent may have let up a little bit and to hook it took off our. Industry break -- a lot of cant remember what the score. But it's done this stadium that look like an obvious just get out of bounds types stop the clock like that and. You know polished on -- to an -- but it. Well well hope you are never I was never accused being Franco Harris it is particularly easy ride out out of bounds -- -- -- you know I've I've heard people relive that played them in -- in it Hughes is opening the cup the ball out of the backfield and this awesome opening going down that line and. Well it's it's that it worked -- -- -- much. That the sector was that the fact that they'll stand off. In Atlantic game where it's Damon's agent. It's -- -- in the game and got watched -- -- jumped five yeah you know post and team right mailing. This game in the ribs and -- rebel yet. My -- and analytic Iowa's chuck Smith that right now that's exactly it was. Yeah. Yeah and -- anyway it would mean a thing. Illegal it's -- mean again I jumped up you know he was trying to block the pass and then just punch him in the -- He gets that call up its fifth when he needed it it was. Who wanted to buy an island that same chuck Smith and it's been did that too young you know Ryan Whitney yeah and now as the one to memory that will really -- Willie role for fourth sacks of one game which is unheard of I guarantee nobody has had the kind of game it's with the rules like chunks of that. In its ironic -- the same one standpoint and make that commitment and once that -- that was put him over there -- to beat. Well Bobby and. -- as if this this season was not anticipated. NFL announcing crew of -- -- kickoff parade. He in the Big Easy today reunion if there has adopted the new format would kick off the entire season on a Thursday night. In the home of the defending champion issues that New Orleans Saints they would take on the team they defeated its Super Bowl forceful.

The Super Bowl championship they called and wanna smoking Mary trained float on and key it's. Who upon the NFL's play sixty campaign Netscape he would -- about making a move -- that make gains. Eat pet in the you know I bet you know like idea I -- -- -- right they -- move around you know do some. NFL sponsor E. A. SPORTS and although all the people will be involved having promote that can be a huge parade. The -- that debt can be this city will be campaign like it was. They reopened but the players not word about the celebration I think Reggie Bush is that it has really when they visit the White House. Dallas -- the last formality. For his -- that -- change -- season behind him and as far as the fans. It then get any better you know you know about the fans and players right right right -- they've focused on the game. And dig it well you hit a thing now. After this happens and in that this is -- would be decent -- but at this happens whereas in vocal music. You know you now think about it I went as a mad when as a Madden 2000 -- overall they don't destroy three -- deactivated eight viewed as a better way of they had a lot of people turn on the -- it was made yeah meaning they ought to mandate because I mean -- and the light is no ill but immediately had a parade like -- -- they still haven't they would have a chance they would have a. Great this the first time to look at the NFL hold the parade the ring and it ring in his ninth first season you know to celebrate the saint James should note David said. It is the first time they've never even put a parade in the confidence Finley because. It's Marty Crosby can't really have operate yet if you look at E. A. SPORTS and how big PR. Now look at the big sponsors these Snickers -- yell involvement at this that the NFL's ninth annual. Football and musical festival did you throw parade in their because it's in New Orleans and visit the seventh consecutive year. The NFL has salute -- syllable chant went with opening game in their own stadium on Thursday night in prime time to kick off this season that's kind of reward. The fans not so much the players yeah obviously -- kick -- this season but this is really just celebrated championships with defense to go into relative. Well let me say this to -- you -- -- -- the commissioner. On and we get 32 great teams out there great days it. What do I really want a parade where if you -- where. -- -- I wanna do that and let me think about it -- -- minute -- visit and I needed a no brainer is that and you -- Macy's parade field this is -- -- you all the celebration parade that's right. It's -- it may guys over. Part of the opponents view them as this game. -- -- Hasn't always -- you -- on the and a -- -- element out last night majority. Midnight children that have to do after the game and that's why you Dallas. Both feet coming back -- lap back and we'll just exit the radio as he hits it. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Yeah. Yeah. Something -- -- Hurricanes and every -- storms fifteen kids taught in sports leader yeah. Seventy. Game that yeah. Not me. Have saying. Yeah. And welcome back to sports -- here on stage radio WWL AM as payment data com operas not welcome in -- -- -- Anthony Waters to the radio out and thank you so much of the time. And me this week big weeks -- pre season game and a year ago at this point he really had to stand out performance against the Texans. -- you know. No -- plays listening appropriate position and make plays and beat photos does not paying you not just got to go out and make plays whenever my Tom's call. And -- that they are looking now. Put to a was always says more you could do. -- yeah you pretty much looks like you playing both inside and outside linebacker. Yeah you notice sort of say no more you can do we know trying to cross trying to a lot of guys and Medicare to give me a step ahead of a step ahead of you know north troop positions so so like you say no more you can do better off QB so. Whatever they ask me to do you know home home home wounded you know pretty and it's on the -- it must have been. And Anthony look at this morning you would add a couple of sacks. And base and performance last year in the actual game against the Texans. Not only did he get a sack in the red -- on the goal line but you also stripped him I think caused the fumble. Is that the kind of plays you have to admit it to make increasing chances to make in this team when you have that opportunity. Going make a difference in -- -- coach's eyes. He started doing this is a great seeing you know you have a lot of great guys rise so. So in order to stand out you know we had to do great fan but I did make great plays and had to do things to do make the coaches think about tuna you know. This dominated decisions so. Mo whatever whatever I can do you know it -- what I'm willing to do so far got to make a great play you know the sauce on trying to do it every time we talk about. Nobody assertion on defense so coach I was so do where the ball we know it -- just -- to -- -- -- make -- tackle and you know try to get the ball out. And Anthony look at -- special teams and obviously. You look at last year even though the team won the championship. It was 32 in punt coverage 34 twenty ninth. And a kickoff coverage is that something that value do you can make a difference in May be be their specialties clearly put him make -- rely upon. He's not have been working real lawyers Trammell or else this would change any notice yes -- this really wanted to talk about you know not run on Chinese characters. He knows recipes -- you know guys guys who can cover kids. Guys who can get out blah thing you know. Then there's this mom my focus on now please not realize you know been in this situation that I meant. -- change is gonna is gonna make it a break from me. Vijay was saying is I'm back Anthony Waters here on Saints radio WWL AM FM and I come anywhere you out there on the field. Whether it's Toronto had to say so running reward his greatest strength having an award is against the run. I'm going to whoever inferno the fifth if it. And and against the pay it's what do what is up and it is difficult for you that you've been able to pick up field pass enough they're pretty strong fast covers knocking. Hockey here knocked around so he -- it go both ways you. And Anthony look at it you background. High school playing for the Clemson Tigers. Any nicknames you got W home boys are somebody is so many got to Clemson. Would did -- that I have views. Muddy Waters so quickly for.
