Post New Orleans Best Athletes

FanHouse is posting the top five current athletes for America's top 20 sporting cities (see: City's Best). With a nod to Dan Steinberg, our three criteria are: 1) Who would a New Orleans sports fan say is his or her favorite local athlete? 2) Would the player's name be familiar to someone who doesn't follow sports or only follows local sports casually? 3) Would the player be recognized walking down the street?

Re: New Orleans Best Athletes

Drew Brees won the honor, followed by Deuce McAllister, Reggie Bush, Chris Paul and Marques Colston.

Four out of five were Saints. What do you think of the list?

I know Joe Horn does not play there anymore, but I think he would be number 1

Not bad, Brees, Deuce and Bush at 1-3...that is about right I would think...
