Deuce: Can I be Greedy?... :9: (1 Viewer)

Watched the game with a buddy of mine today who happens to be a Browns fan, he asked me who my favorite Saint player is…I replied that it would be easy to say Drew Brees, but it’s Deuce Mc. Not only for what he did on the field but he’s one of us!
 
My favorite personal memory of Deuce. About a decade or so ago, we were playing a game in the Dome on my bday in Dec, I was in a suite that a friend of my Dad has, and Deuce popped in to say hi to said friend. He was told it was my bday, and he sang Happy Birthday to me with everyone else. I have a pic of it somewhere, hopefully I can find it. Deuce is one of a kind...
My Favorite personal memory of Deuce ..I live in northan California and the Saints came to play the Raiders (when they were still in Oakland) and I went to the hotel they were staying at to meet players and get autographs. I was in a line and Duece walked up and Said "I'm happy to meet and sign for kids only". I was trying to get my McFarland figure of Duece signed. I handed it to him and said this is for my son he is a big fan. He said where is he? I said not here. Duece said that's too bad he could have met me and handed it back without signing. A year later Saints were in the Bay Area again and this time I brought my son. Duece walked up and said the same thing to the group in line. When it was my turn Duece looked at me and my son and said "oh good, you brought you kid this time" He was amazing , he signed the figure and took pictures with me and my Son. I couldn't believe it, it was a year later and can't even begin to guess how many people he had to meet and sign for inbetween and he remembered!!! What an amazing feeling he gave to us

Wow, that's amazing. Then again, he clearly has a mind like a steel trap. A lot of the guys stand by that motto of only signing for kids and I gotta respect that.
