The Saints plane for Arizona leaves in a couple of hours but first the team is getting in one final walk-through before the first pre-season game.
9:44 a.m. This is what you might call a "visor" practice. It's so relaxed that helmets have been replaced with caps and visors. The team is basically just trying to make sure everyone knows where to line up and what formations they are going to use.
9:50 a.m. Make sure to log on tomorrow as we will have a full preview of the Saints/Cardinals pre-season game. We'll tell you how long you can expect to see the first team offense in the game and who needs the make an impact to earn playing time or just a spot on the roster. Plus, what is Coach Payton looking for specifically.
9:56 a.m. I apologize because I really don't want to speak or write the name Brett Favre, but according to reports it's a strong possibility that Favre will end up in Tampa Bay. I only bring that up because the Bucs come to New Orleans the first week of the season. Get your popcorn ready.
10:03 a.m. Reggie Bush got his game day haircut, nice clean cut for when he sees his boy Leinart.
10:13 a.m. Practice is over. Sorry for the lack of updates but it wasn't a very riveting workout. Tomorrow will be the fun stuff and we'll look ahead to that again with a full preview on our site tomorrow. No media availablity right now, so log back on for more Saints coverage in the morning.
