If it didnt happen after the Rams no call it will never happen.
I took a ~5 year break after that one, only casually watching 1-3 games per season when I had family over. But here I am, back at the NFL teat after being excited with what I saw from Shough over 2-3 games last season. I can definitely say that it's not nearly the same level of fandom, though. I'm pulling for the Saints, but I used to be pissed for days after every major loss.

Anemic pass protection is going to hurt the Saints for the rest of the season.
The good news for the Saints is that the problems are mostly on the right side of the OL. Richards did fairly well replacing banks, but looking to the future:
Banks/Edwards/McCoy are OK.
RG Ruiz fricking sucks, and RT Fuaga has shown flashes but not looking great generally.
We've obviously been iffy with our OL draft picks, but if we want to fill those positions in free agency, those are cheaper/easier to find than the left side. Just don't tard out and give Ruiz/Fuaga a big extension like we did with Peat.
If the Saints are looking like they've got a good chance at winning the division before the trade deadline, I'd hope that they'd look into trading for a competent RG from a tanking team. That may legit help Fuaga.
Their fans have been ghetto as frick since the mid 80's at least.
I seriously think that Boyz N the Hood both represented the ghetto fans, and also brought in more:

There was pressure up the middle, Shough was backpedalling, threw it 35+ yards off of his back foot, and it landed in the absolute perfect location for Vele to catch the ball. The defender made a great play on it, but I wish Vele had tried turning around and catching the ball higher. That would have eliminated the chance of getting YAC, but made it more likely that he would get the catch, and also increased the chances that he'd draw a PI, since the defender definitely wasn't looking back at the ball.

ALP makes the best pouches. They’re strangely easy to order considering it’s nicotine.
Good to know. That definitely could save me some money buying in bulk. But I'm pretty sure that I tried them and wasn't a fan. It wasn't the flavor, it was just the mushiness/texture that I didn't like. Their website even gives it an "8/10" on "moisture" (super arbitrary giving moisture a rating, but whatever). I'll buy a can next time I see them available and give it another shot. If I like it, then I'll make the switch for the cost/convenience.
I've never seen Fleabag/Atlanta. Chernobyl, BCS, and Arrested Development are too low. I actually watched most of S1 of Girls and wasn't impressed. The list is also missing some elite Brit comedies(Peep Show, IT Crowd), but other than that, the list is pretty legit.
ETA: Fargo fell off in S4/5, but S1-3 (especially the first two) were so good that it needs to be on there.

re: It’s time to end tnf

With 17 game seasons, NFL should:
-go back to 2 bye weeks
-do TNF on week 1, then limit it to teams coming off of a bye.
That would greatly improve the quality of the games. The NFL would still be able to have Thursday night games for all but ~6 out of 19 weeks. I suspect that fantasy football is what's making them hesitant to go back to the 2 byes.

They may have changed things, but the little nicotine pellet thingies covered every pouch + the interior of the can. And it wasn't all of the flavors, but On was the only pouch that's ever burned my gums/inner lip. The price was right but they weren't my jam.
Has anyone found a way to get online shipments of pouches to LA?
I started off with Zyn about 4 years ago. I've tried 5-7 other brands since, and only one of those brands (I forget which) could compete. Everything else was either too dry/powdery, or felt super mushy as soon as I put it in my mouth. Zyn and that one other brand were the only Goldilocks pouches.

Gentlemen,
I used to be quite the fan of the Crane brothers. That admiration ceased once I heard them besmirch Tchaikovsky and utterly disparage his 1812 Overture. They are no longer welcome at my wine and cheese soirees. Maris remains a frequent attendee, but rarely partakes in our charcuteries and mostly focuses on the wine.

I'm so sick of this bullshite narrative. The run blocking game has been awful this year. It was awful last year until we played some bum defensive teams.
Absolutely. But Ettiene and Miller are running behind the same OL, and they're outperforming him by a fairly significant margin (Ettiene 4.2YPC, Miller 3.3YPC, Kamara 1.7YPC).
It's early, and it was Kamara's first game action in quite a while, but he just doesn't look good anymore. I want to keep Kamara involved for a bit to see if he improves, but Ettiene/Miller needs to see more touches if AK keeps playing like this.

I live in Colorado and go to Durango often…..I hate Colorado and would be in Louisiana in a heartbeat. 4 months of summer here and bitter cold the rest of year.
For July, Durango has an average July high of 84°. That's only a bit higher than NOLA's October average. Relative to NOLA, Durango doesn't really have a summer at all.
But I totally understand the cold complaints. I was there in mid-May and there were still some park entrances that had a good bit of snow/ice. Durango is the prettiest area on my list, but it would definitely require the biggest adjustment.
I'm sure that you've already done so, but take the Durango-Silverton train ride if you haven't already.
