I did an interview with Phil Anselmo about visiting his beloved New Orleans Saints and playing football with some United Way kids.
“My poor kids,” he recalled with a laugh. “With me at QB, I’ll not tell a lie … Michael Lewis threw four TD passes and there was a kid on his team, where we were like, ‘Let’s see his ID. Where is his birth certificate? How old is he?’ Since he was so good.”

I interviewed Phil Anselmo, and asked him how he’s dealing with the loss of Dime. Said Anselmo,
I will say that with each passing year, it gets harder and harder and harder. This year was really rough. This past December was excruciating. When I look around today and see what an impact that we made, and where heavy metal is at today, and I think of what could have been? What should have been? It’s very hard. It’s hard to come to grips with it.
