Here's a little Saints Trivia for you Old Timers (1 Viewer)

[Phil]

Here's a little off season trivia exercise.
I put up a team picture of the 1967 Saints in the image gallery of my website.
Without looking a roster list, how many of the players can you name off the top of you head?

The pic is at The 1967 New Orleans Saints Team Picture

 

[sinner mike]

Not many

 

[Muerte33]

I could not name any of them.
Why can't we have the number 0 or 00 anymore?
Greg Romeus is blank, why not give him zero?

 

[Day1]

I got twelve without cheating- Logan, Kilmer, Roberts, Kelly, Abramowicz, Atkins, Kupp, Williams, Rowe, Tilleman, Durkee, Cuozzo.

Number 61 is my dad Del Williams

Number 61 is my dad Del Williams

My dad was the last on the end second row from the top. Non player but assistant equip manager.

 

[NeverGiveUP2]

Billy Kilmer, Danny A. Doug Atkins, Del Williams, Steve Stonebreaker, Obert Logan, Flea Williams,

Is #50 Jake Kupp or was that later?

0 was Orbet Logan a long, long, long long time ago.

 

[44-4ever]

0 was Orbet Logan a long, long, long long time ago.

...and Ken Burrough was #00 a few years later. No other Saint has ever worn either number.
The only other number in Saint's history that has been worn by only one player is Archie Manning's #8.

 

[broccoli60]

Number 61 is my dad Del Williams

I need to kick myself in the butt for not remembering your dad's name.

Good job I knew a lot of these. Remember the controversy over Charley Durkee's shoe?

Telling my age but i was 13 years old in 1967 and had been watching NFL football for about 8 years when the saints came into existence. And just for the record...........there is no #87 in that pic. Monty Stickels didn't join the Saints till a couple of years later in 1969 after his misbehavings and shenanigans wore really thin with the Niners.

Terrific job, but #27 was Walter "the Flea" Roberts. He played WR for one season, then was traded to Detroit for QB Karl Sweetan. Bill Cody was #66.

 

[Bala Lowkz]

I'm obviously not an old timer but abramowitz stands out like a sore thumb. Is #46 number retired?
