I've got a little treat for you this weekend with an interview I just conducted with Saints' young defensive tackle Mitch King. You'll remember King as a player that exploded in preseason last year for the Saints lining up huge performances which forced the Saints' hand to keep him on the opening day 53 man roster, even though most projected him as a camp body. King led the Saints in preseason with 15 tackles and also registered a sack, quickly making the Saints' staff and fans realize he could play very well. King bounced from the active roster to the practice squad for most of last year but remained on the team for the duration, and he did play in 3 regular season games registering 3 tackles in limited play time. Many thanks to him for taking the time to talk to us. I hope you enjoy and good luck to Mitch this upcoming season, Who Dat nation will be pulling for him!
I promise it gets better after the first question :)Saints Nation: Mitch, OK, so you knew I w...

Parcells will bring more drama in one season than any other...
