• 10-0 and Ready For The Patriots

  Number of comments: 2
  
  I have no clue what to do when my home team is 10-0. Am I supposed to feel over excited? Should I handle it like the team and take one game at a time? Should I rent the SUV to drive to Miami for the [...]

  Number of comments: 7
  
  First let’s go over the positives after today’s game….
  9-0 is sweet no matter what. At the least we won’t have a losing season.Any long time Saint’s fan hates the Rams so anytime we beat them it is special. Reggie Bush has finally awakened and [...]

• My Weekend Vibe : Grown Man Thoughts

  Number of comments: 2
  It's such a nice day outside that I am almost tempted to sit outside instead of watching football today. If the weather could stay like this all year it would put everyone in much better mood. My trade off for not going outside is to open the windows and let' [...]

  When you add it all up it's been a good weekend. I purposely didn't say anything about the Panthers game out of fear of angering Steve Smith and feeling his wrath. It's been a long time since Saints fans didn't go home with visions of [...]

  It doesn’t matter about the race or ethnicity of a person when news breaks of a corruption indictment in New Orleans. My reaction is always the same. I get sad because I think of what we could have done with whatever money or opportunity [...]

  There is nothing that brings me more pleasure in sports than when the Saints beat Atlanta. There's also not another team that reminds me of how rough it's been over the last 30 + years of following this team. These Saints/Falcons games are personal. I [...]
