The New Orleans Saints and Gov. Bobby Jindal have decided to head down together to coastal Plaquemines Parish on Tuesday to visit areas affected by the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.
The Saints initially planned to attend a lunchtime event at the governor’s mansion in Baton Rouge that day, but Jindal and the Super Bowl champions decided it would be more appropriate to meet in an area that is now suffering the adverse affects of the worst oil spill in the nation’s history.
Oil has washed ashore in Plaquemines Parish, just southeast of New Orleans, killing and injuring wildlife and polluting waters where fishermen work.
Jeremy Shockey hospitalized after suffering seizure, says he’s OK

Saints tight end Jeremy Shockey said Thursday that he’s OK after he suffered what later was diagnosed as a seizure during a weightlifting session and went to a New Orleans-area hospital.
Said Shockey via Twitter:
“I am ok, thanks to everyone who has shown their concern don’t worry about me I will be fine. WHO DAT!!”
Saints coach Sean Payton told NewOrleans.com that Shockey will be hospitalized overnight after an incident that veteran safety Darren Sharper called “scary” to see.
“I talked to Jeremy from the hospital, and the good news is he’s feeling better and everything looks real good,” Payton said. “He’ll likely finish up his tests and spend the night in the hospital. They don’t know if it was dehydration or what. That’s what they’re going through right now. They just want to make sure it’s nothing more significant than that.”
Shockey, an eight-year NFL veteran, spent the past two years with the Saints and was instrumental in helping them win their first Super Bowl last season. He has 469 receptions for 5,280 yards and 30 touchdowns in his career, but he has never played a full season because of various injuries.
