Internals and externals… Why do I do what I do? Why do I write the things I do on the internet? For what purpose? Do I believe that by writing all the things I’ve written over the past year or so about British Petroleum, Ken Feinberg, the GOP, Barack Obama and whatever else will create a world of my liking…that British Petroleum will finally admit … Continue reading In here is more important than out there…
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…
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….
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?
Jacksonville… God, even the name is boring. I’m having a hard time getting up for this game, maybe it’s because its Florida, the nations graveyard. You see, when you live in the north, what Florida’s really known for is being the place where people move to when they get old, you know, for the climate. And when you hear that for a few decades, what … Continue reading Saints vs. Jaguars…
Though I grew up in Green Bay Packer territory, grew up watching the likes of Lynn Dickey, Don Majkowski and early Brett Farve…to this day, there’s only been one authentic football jersey I’ve ever owned and it was the New Orleans Saints, Pat Swilling #56. Jersey’s long gone by now, but not a loyalty to a team that’s come to define something much more than just a … Continue reading Uh, did somebody say the Saints?!
And now, a word from our sponsors… Pantera – Domination The hidden subtext? Obviously… Their singer, Phil Anselmo, is from New Orleans…so, you get the idea… Have a nice day. Continue reading And now, a word from our sponsors…Playoffs Version
Ed. Note…17-14…New Orleans over Atlanta…Who Dat!!!! And to Mr. Hartley…a 51 yarder…it almost, almost makes up for what you did in week three…like I’ve said before – though I do forgive you…the forgetting part is really, really hard…but, great kick tonight… Go Saints! Hey everybody. So todays’ the day and yes, certainly the Green Bay win over the Giants helped and the Saints are practically in … Continue reading Have I mentioned I hate Atlanta?
Ed. Note…ok, Baltimore won, but they still suck and the next game in Atlanta is all the more important…and I really hate Atlanta… Sometimes, you need a break… Rob Zombie – Superbeast “Shriek the lips across ragged tongue, convulsing together, sing violently, move the jaw, cry out loud, bound up the dead, triumphantly” The hidden subtext? Obviously… The Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints are … Continue reading And now, a word from our sponsors…Baltimore Sucks Version
For those of us so unfortunate to not be watching the game in New Orleans today, we go out in this to find a bar with satellite television…. Enjoy the game everybody…not as bad a weather as elsewhere in the region…but it sure ain’t great either… Go Saints! -Drake Continue reading New Orleans Saints Football…when not in New Orleans
