I live in Atlanta- and it is the same here. 90% of my co-workers are cheering for the Saints. My wife spent yesterday stocking up for our Super Bowl party- which will include Steelers, Cowboys, Giants, and Falcons fans cheering for the Black & Gold. She went to 5 different party supplies and gr...

Exposing PC diddling young, buxom blondes probably helps his coolness factor with 18 yr old recruits...not being able to play for championships- now that starts to hurt lil Petey . No way that is the driver- but the story would get more press WITH sanctions....
Stay in Buckhead- not what it used to be from a Nightlife standpoint, but still safer and more things to do after dark than downtown. Transporation is easy- Marta or Cab. ...

Today's Loss & the Alternative

Posted by Chicageaux Mike on 1/3/10 at 7:08 pm
Today was a no win situation for the Saints. While it was miserable to watch Brunnell short arm throw after throw- at least we will have #9 under center in 2 weeks. NE lost Wes Welker today to a likely ACL and MCL tear. We all could be feeling much worse......

Positives \ Things to Build On

Posted by Chicageaux Mike on 9/7/09 at 5:16 pm
Was at the game and have watched the replay. Like others- I am feeling better than I did at 11:30 PST Sat night. 5 areas where we showed improvement over 2007: 1. QB. Jefferson managed the game unbelievably well. Not sure what it sounded like on TV- but this was an SEC road atmosphere and h...
Neaux! Having watched the replay- CS had some solid runs and at times nowhere to run. The fumble hurt, but only his 2nd in 2 years. There were 3 times where KW was late or never picked up the blitz. I don't think the fumbles have limited his PT- its his knowledge of the playbook and ability ...

The Advocate Sports editorial staff look like the HS jounalism club when it comes to LSU baseball. No comparison between the editorial pieces written by Dubois and Dodd vs. Laney. Thanks to TD for reguarly publishing Dubois' work....

90% of my friends are staying Downtown (myself included, but we are making a 5 day trip. IMO, staying near UW makes sense if you are only in for the game. The campus area is limited for tourist type of activities and it is a pretty good haul from downtown with no quick, easy public transportatio...

re: CBS had gone ESPN no respect

Posted by Chicageaux Mike on 4/11/09 at 6:42 am
The Iron Bowl replacing ARK vs LSU as the Friday after Thanksgiving game is not a bad thing for LSU and is not a reflection of CBS respect for our program. In my opinion, the Iron Bowl is the number 1 rivalry in College Football. Regardless of where the teams are ranked- the game is sold out, br...
If you are a golfer- Play one of the Robert Trent Jones golf courses. Houndstooth is a cool bar, and the owner is a good dude- saw him give an LSU fan his tickets to the 07 game. The LSU fan had been pounding drinks and looking for tickets for 2 days in his bar, and he hooked him up 45 minutes b...

re: LSU the new #1?

Posted by Chicageaux Mike on 4/9/09 at 5:11 am
Arky deserves to be #1 right now based on OOC and current SEC standings. That being said- the SEC and Tigers will make them earn the right to stay there. :geauxtigers:...
