What an incredible memory for him and y’all....thanks for sharing that. Makes me wish I could have had some beers with him.My wife and I met him at the Saints Hall of Fame in 2011. He told us how back then the players didn't make much money and most players had other jobs besides football. He told us every day after practice he would bring a case of Dixie Beer in the trunk of his car and they would sit in the parking lot and drink the entire case of beer. He was indeed a wonderful soul and we have truly lost a legend. RIP Mr. Dempsey.
The way I’d heard it from stories told about it by Buddy D, the special teams coach said “should we send out the kicking team?” and Coach Roberts called for the punt team (I guess he didn’t have much situational awareness). The special teams coach then frantically said “No! Stumpy!!!” Which was what they affectionately called Dempsey.I remember there was talk that the coach at the time meant to send out the punt team but accidentally sent out the field goal team instead. However that honestly doesn't make sense to me since the Saints were trailing by 1 and there was :02 seconds on the clock. Anyone know anything about that story?
Anybody know what the hell this meant?He died years ago. I spray his widow's home for pest control and talk to her about him.
