Sean Payton's message to Jerry Jones
 
Thought this was funny...

Quote:
I smell a nice rivalry cooking.

On Friday night, the Saints' staff at the combine gathered in a private room at St. Elmo Steakhouse, an 108-year-old Indy landmark, for a final celebratory nod to the Super Bowl win over the Colts. This is a group that likes its wine, and likes to have fun.

At the restaurant, word passed that Dallas owner Jerry Jones would have his Dallas group in this exact room Saturday night for a team dinner. Jones had even phoned ahead, according to a waiter, to make sure a magnum of a wine he loved, Caymus Special Selection cabernet sauvignon, was ready to be served at dinner.

Sean Payton told the waiter he'd like to have that wine, too. The waiter told him: Sorry, sir. We have only one bottle left, and it's reserved for Mr. Jones.

Payton said he'd like to have the bottle nonetheless. I assume there was much angst on the part of the wait staff at that point. My God! Who do we piss off? One of the most powerful owners in the NFL, or the coach who's the toast of the NFL, the coach who just won the Super Bowl?

Here came the bottle of Caymus Special Selection, and the Saints' party drained it.

But drinking Jones' wine wasn't enough. Payton gave the waiter some instructions, took out his pen ... and, well, the Cowboys party found at the middle of their table the next evening an empty magnum of Caymus Special Selection cabernet sauvignon, with these words hand-written on the fancy label:

WHO DAT!
World Champions XLIV
Sean Payton

That's the kind of thing Jones will get a big laugh out of. And remember.

Payton is a pretty cool coach IMO.

Tried that Caymus last month at a wine tasting bar. Good, but expensive. I wouldn't pay for a bottle of it.

Yes.. flipping off Brother Jerry is always great.. I'm just so tired of the Who Dat crap. Am I the only one that thinks its dumb?

Gadzooks 03-01-2010 07:43 PM
It was a historic Indy establishment?
I’d think they throw them out by the collar, let alone allowing them to pull an obnoxious prank.
I think everybody likes this story because Jerry Jones is the butt of the joke.
Sounds like BS to me.

No, you're not.

If Sean Payton had any couth at all, he'd have made sure there was a 5 liter box of wine there for Jerry Jones. :D

So, Jones phones ahead and makes reservations for a particular wine.

Payton does not; but says he'd like to have that same wine.

And instead of saying "We aren't carrying that particular wine" or simply saying 'no' honoring the reservation this restaurant just serves that bottle of wine and allows Payton to leave a humorous note.

Sounds a bit contrived to me. And like bad business.

That was AWESOME, he's now my second favorite head coach... stuck it in Jerry's ass, broke it off & then left a smartass lil note for good measure.

Pablo 03-01-2010 08:04 PM
Although if the story is true, I'm sure Jones could have found some humor in it.

Something like "Ahaha, that's classic. Now where's my ****ing wine?"

Maybe he paid extra?
