Never realized he was terminated by the Saints before the season started.

True Bouman story:

Back in 1999 a few friends and I went to the Vikings Monday Night Football game vs. the Tampa Bay Bucaneers. The Vikes won 21-14. After the game we decided to check out "Deja-Vu" gentlemans club before driving back to Brookings for Tuesday morning class. At the club they ladies were tossing out nerf Vikings footballs and I happened to catch one (I think I caught the eye of one of the strippers b/c she threw it right to me). We finally decided to head out about a 1/2 hour before close. Wouldn't you know as soon as we set foot out of the club, we see Bouman and a few of his friends. I didn't recognize him but my buddy, who's a huge Vikes fan did. He grabs the football and tosses it to Bouman, shouting, "Hey, Bouman! Toss me a pass!" Bouman winds up and whips it everything he has only to miss us by about 15 yards and throws it right into the hood of a car parked in between us. My buddy (the Vikings fan) shouts back while laughing, "That's why you're the backup!" Good times, good times....

Re: Bouman signs one-year deal with Green Bay

rabbitinverm, that's a funny story....how drunk was Bouman when he tried to make that throw?

If Favre retires, Bouman might b able to stick around Green Bay for a few years as Rodgers' backup since their coach was at New Orleans for a couple years with Bouman.
