Knitting behind enemy lines…

Update: Saints win 23-20…Bwahahahaha…! This is the day I’ve been waiting for… New Orleans Saints vs. the San Francisco 49ers. A day that will live in infamy? The times that try men’s souls? How about it was the best of times, it was the worst of times? Fine, I’ll take the latter and in a few hours I’ll be sitting calmly in a bar in … Continue reading Knitting behind enemy lines…

Saints vs. the Ghost of Mike Nolan…

Ed update… I’m really not happy with Greg Williams…and Roby back on a return? WTF? Having lived in both New Orleans and San Francisco, and having plans to move to San Francisco in eleven weeks, one might think I might be a bit conflicted about the playoff game today between the Saints and the 49ers… One might be wrong. Yes, I love the City by … Continue reading Saints vs. the Ghost of Mike Nolan…

Merry Christmas all…

Hey everybody… Yeah, I’m still around, preparing to launch back into things on the 1st of the year, but I couldn’t let the days get by without some holiday wishes to all in New Orleans and along the Gulf Coast… Best to everybody this season…Christmas, New Years and everything else everybody celebrates… Me, I’ll be driving even further north than I already am to spend … Continue reading Merry Christmas all…

Saints vs. Detroit, Robocop and Nazi Sympathizers…

Did you hear an internet group in Michigan has raised over $63,000 dollars to put a statue of Robocop in downtown Detroit? No, I’m not kidding. It’s completely true, and a fantastic idea. If not familiar with the Robocop legend, allow me to so inform: Robocop is a cyborg police officer who not only was a one man wrecking crew in stopping crime all over Old Detroit, but he was a robot … Continue reading Saints vs. Detroit, Robocop and Nazi Sympathizers…

Saints vs Atlanta – Do it for Val!

Ed. Note…well, that statement was certainly painful, especially to Mike Smith… The Atlanta Falcons… Hate them. Really hate them, how can you not? Their quarterback has a nickname and the look of some asshole in Top Gun, one of the worst freaking films ever made, and I say that thinking Val Kilmer is pretty cool overall…little bloated these days, but there was a time I’d watch … Continue reading Saints vs Atlanta – Do it for Val!

Saints vs. St. Louis, Lou Brock, Mark McGwire and family…

So, this week the New Orleans Saints go into St. Louis to play the “Rams.” Ha…sorry, still can’t get over the whole St. Louis Cardinals football team winding up in Arizona, and Los Angeles Rams winding up in St. Louis thing…it would seem to me, why not just have Arizona become the Rams and the Rams become the Cardinals so balance can again be restored … Continue reading Saints vs. St. Louis, Lou Brock, Mark McGwire and family…

Saints vs. Indianapolis, Curtis Painter, Sobriety and Zzzzzz….

Sometimes, I think I like the drink a little too much. ‘Tis true…back in my early to mid-twenties, there was no question about it and during the time I actually lived in New Orleans, again…no doubt. I liked a pitcher or two, perhaps a bit more than I should have but hell, in New Orleans I was taking a break from my social work career … Continue reading Saints vs. Indianapolis, Curtis Painter, Sobriety and Zzzzzz….

Saints vs. Tampa Bay and…uh, my grandparents?

Editor’s note: Okay, that was a big pile of suck-ass, but not something anyone didn’t see coming. When I hear announcers on ESPN calling the Saints the second best team in the NFL, I love it, absolutely love it…but…how many times you going to win on a last minute drive? Well, not every…not this week…and that’s when the status comes into question…oh, and did I … Continue reading Saints vs. Tampa Bay and…uh, my grandparents?

Saints vs. Carolina, and Michael Jordan, and Barack Obama…

Yes, I love the New Orleans Saints…but of equal important in this week’s game are the following five simple facts: 1. I hate Michael Jordan. 2. Michael Jordan is involved with the Charlotte Bobcats, located in the same city as the Panthers. 3. Micheal Jordan used to play for UNC, a college located very close to Charlotte. 4. I’m assuming that since Michael Jordan is so … Continue reading Saints vs. Carolina, and Michael Jordan, and Barack Obama…
