The Saints’ Pierre Thomas Makes Santa’s List for Naughty and Nice
Here’s something to bring all you Saints fans a little holiday cheer; Those players you’ve come to love so much for their talent on the field are total goofballs off the field. And although he won’t admit it, Pierre Thomas may be the goofiest of them all. He’s a certified prankster who’s riding a wave of success that not even he saw coming.
You’ve probably seen him in interviews, all cool, calm and sophisticated but mark my words, this guy’s a character. In fact, in a recent interview with Chicks in the Huddle, he admitted to clowning around with his teammates whenever he can by putting pictures of their celebrity look-a-likes on their locker. Here’s a sample of a few “separated at birth” scenarios Pierre’s brought to life in the locker room.
13 and Inches: The Saints’ Pierre Thomas on the Run to Perfection
When New Orleans Saints running back Pierre Thomas scores a touchdown and looks to the sky, he’s not checking for rain or waiting for fireworks. He’s thinking about his Grandpa Crockett, the man who passed away too soon to see what the Chicago native would become. James Crockett was a major figure in Pierre’s life as a child. He died shortly after Thomas started playing football, never getting a chance to watch his grandson chase his dreams. So, instead of using touchdowns as a way to show off his dance moves, taunt opposing fans, or don a beret and mustache on the sidelines in some PR stunt, Thomas points to the sky as a sign of love and respect for his grandpa.
Gettin’ Personal with Pierre Thomas
Unlike the prude who left you with that epic case of blue balls or the guy who promised he would call, I’m no tease…at least, not when it comes to Chick Chats. As promised, here is part two of my interview with Pierre Thomas. And no, that gushing tone you’re detecting throughout the interview is not just your imagination.
Pierre Thomas On Shrimp Po-boys, Bear Meat and a Handful of Nuts
Consider 2007 the year of the wake-up call for Saints fans. Just when we thought our offensive worries were over, we got off to an 0-4 start, lost Deuce McAllister in the third week of the season, and found ourselves wondering why Reggie Bush in real life was nothing like “Madden Reggie” who scored every time he touched the ball. And just when it seemed like the season would end with all of us racing for the liquor cabinet, a bottle of pills, and a bootleg version of “The Happening” to ensure a slow and painful death, a rookie running back named Pierre Thomas stepped in and gave us something to believe in.
