Photographer: Philip Gould New Orleans was on a high like no other when the city celebrated its beloved Saints playing in the Super Bowl last year. It was a moment of deliverance.

Through the Checkpoint to the Information Cave
November 29, 2011 – 11:19 am
There was a lot to love in last night’s Saints win, but time for two non-game-related notes: – I’ve vented before about my irritation with the information blackout in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, but last night when Will Herring made the interception in the end zone, there was no replay.
