nice nola.com piece...

At 32, he's retired from the game, now working at the Shaw Group, the Baton Rouge oil and engineering conglomerate. His exact job description is "energy efficiency, renewable energy and sustainability consulting."

anybody here know him? deal with him?

What was the second best play of your career?
I blocked four punts in my career, which was the most anybody in the entire league blocked during the span of my career.

I do believe Reis is the new Gleason. I've liked this guy since the Saints signed him.

I can only think of one guy who has reason to hate him... but football is a contact sport.

He always kind had a cult following until recently when he blocked that punt in 06. I remember a few years before that we had a bunch of guys in our section that wore home made Gleason shirts to the games and would go nuts anytime he touched the field.
