I grew up in the New Orleans area, where our football team is the Saints. My father was, and still is, a die-hard Saints fan, and as a result, I often heard a great deal about the local team. Well, as a child, when I heard about the holiday All Saints Day, I believed that it was a day to commemorate the athletes playing on our local football team.
