Perhaps not the most momentous event, but notable nonetheless.
"One of the most prolific careers in NFL history has come to an end... Drew Brees, 42, retires as the NFL's all-time leader in career passing yards (80,358) and ranks second all time in touchdown passes (571) and completion percentage (67.7%). Brees will always be revered for helping to revive the Saints franchise and the city of New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina."

"He professed his affection for the community in countless interviews, talked up the city's renowned restaurant scene and was a celebrity rider in Mardi Gras parades. Brees has donated or committed more than $35 million to charitable causes in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast region... New Orleans resident, political pundit James Carville said, 'No one has ever scored higher as far as their combination of athletic achievement and involvement in a community'.”
