Heck I tried to watch some of LIV when Zurich was in technical difficulties / rain delay… just not entertaining. Announcers suck, there is no story line really, hard to follow the holes and where players were at. Just not a great watch.


LIV is a tough watch, but it only has 14 events and they are on strategic dates in the early-mid season to compete against the weak sisters of the PGA tour (of which the Zurich is one). They will also compete same week as the Rocket and Scottish.

Add one sentence: “As a result of my shenanigans I got the Saints to reach for a 26 YO injury riddled QB in the 2nd round”

Final round of the Zurich Classic, delayed by weather and a power outage, averaged 1.631M viewers from 3:00-7:40. That's down 12% from 1.852M last year, when Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry won.


That’s pathetic given the RBC last week had 4.4M viewers with no McIlroy in the field.

Zurich has to disappointed and should question their sponsorship of the event.

Agree but it’s still HS pitching and outfielders with nowhere near the speed of the SEC. He looks like a .500 HS hitter all day.

she’s taken huge action in each.


If you mean by hiring 2 guys in Moore and Dumars no other franchise would touch is huge action so be it.

You guys who are satisfied just being in the pro sports club with 0 expectations are funny.

Yet the current state of both her franchises seemingly doesn’t bother you at all.

He’s the poster child on how not to conduct yourself and was obviously parented horribly.

Yes, his conduct got around and shitting on any NFL team gives other teams concerns you’ll eventually shite on your employer too.

Honestly I don't think I'm capable of caring anymore. This franchise will be in the fricking toilet for the next 5 years.


This franchise won’t be here in 5 years which is best for the Pels and all of us. It just hasn’t worked. A shitty owner is not a good fit for a shite city.

He interviewed for 3 HC jobs just this offseason.


Offers? None but us.
quote:

We have a new coach with Superbowl confetti still stuck to the bottom of his shoes. He comes in and hand picked his QB.


Moore may have SB confetti, but only the Saints the job of last resort offered the guy. We all hope it works out but nobody else has ever been interested in Moore as HC.

As for hand picking his QB, just last month Moore told us how much he admires Carr and can’t wait to coach him. Either he lied or is clueless on how to read a room, which should make us all skeptical on Shough when most said not to touch.
quote:

You got it! That's exactly why he hangs with FO members in the off season and still flies on Gayle's jet with Loomis for a wedding and playing golf?


That’s even worse and confirms our worst fears. Payton loves Gayle and Loomis, but thought NOLA was such a shithole he had to leave regardless. Never forget he tried to get out of his contract multiple times before “retiring”.
It’s already one of the worst fields on tour. Probably not getting Rory or many other top 10 players. If we’re being honest like the Saints and Pels the Zurich is a poverty tour event.

You do what you can, to eventually land a franchise QB.....and it is very difficult.


Absolutely correct and the only reason we had our only one in the last 40 years is because Miami didn’t want him.

I’m just happy we have our 1st as of now for 2026.
quote:

We all want this to work. It’s the huge odds that it won’t that’s undeniable, as well as the tough position it puts the team in next year if it has a top 3 pick


The same face painters hailing this pick told us Garret Grayson, Ian Book, Jake Haener, etc were Diamond in the rough great replacements for Brees.

That’s great, the cause is noble and good for the region.

It’s still needs a gimmick team type event to attract anyone. Tiger never came to NOLA and even our own Sam Burns skips the event.

It’s hard to believe but he’s hitting better at LSU than he did in high school as a senior. He batted .314 his senior year.


That’s very difficult to believe.

With how good Dickinson bunts that would have been the time

They weren’t throwing Dickinson in the zone, no chance to bunt but he showed no discipline that at bat and keeps Tennessee in this.
