Not injury, tonsillitis. And he was still going to practice and all. Seems weak, but the NCAA may be reluctant to cost this kid millions in NIL.

re: Some credit to Loomis: revisiting trades this year

Posted by Burt Macklin on 12/24/25 at 11:35 am to Lsujacket66

The Richards and Polk trades were pick swaps - player and a 6th for a 7th, not a 6th and a 7th. So basically nothing.

I never saw the remake but the original was a banger. The original ended a little more hopeful - as I recall there was a voiceover from the future speaking of the heroes that died fighting the invasion, with the U.S. ultimately victorious. I remember the remake mostly for the last minute switch of the villains from China to North Korea because the movie studio was afraid to piss off the Chinese.

Do not expect Loomis to make any worthwhile moves. What is happening right now is the absolute worst thing.

You need serious help. If you think finding your franchise QB and winning games is the "worst thing" then I don't know what you're watching football for.

He does not want to and will not do anything to commit to being a contender.

Wut? Mickey's main problem was he kept doubling down on the Saints being contenders when they weren't after Brees. Now that we actually have potential again, it's finally the appropriate time for him to invest in contending.

You weirdos that want to lose for years on end so you can fantasize about top 5 draft picks every year need to become Jets fans.

I don't know if it was this episode or the last when Zosia mentioned something about how the hive communicates via eletromagnetism or something. It made me think Carol (and/or Manousos) is going to get Zosia into a metal safe or some other shielded room to free her from the hive, at least temporarily.

The roster still needs a huge overhaul. Hopefully Mickey doesn’t pretend they are ready for the playoffs next year

In this division, they are ready for the playoffs next year. They could easily be the best team in the NFC south next year with a slightly healthier roster and just a few new starters. This says more about the division than the Saints, but I absolutely expect playoffs next year.

I can't forgive Rogen for turning on James Franco. You don't treat a friend like that. Can't avoid thinking about that whenever I see him. Not funny.

Except they hurt their draft position by winning pointless games which hurts the theory of getting better players in the draft

I will always believe KM and Loomis tanked the first half of the season with Rattler and some peculiar in-game decisions on purpose. I truly believe we'd be sitting at 8-9 wins right now if they'd tried to win from the start. If you're obsessed with draft position, you should thank them for all those early season Ls. Once you put in your QB of the future, though, the tanking has to stop.

the money grubbing female owner,

What are you talking about? Whatever her other flaws, Gayle spends money on this Saints team. All those back-loaded contracts to sign big name FA happened because she paid the cash up front in signing bonuses, etc. Raiders, Jets, and Bengals are examples of actual cheap teams. The decisions may not have worked out, but Gayle ain't cheap and is considered one of the most player friendly owners in the league.

You and some others in this thread better look up some recipes for crow. I have zero concerns about him getting an extra year of eligibility. He played in 2 games as a freshman, by FBS criteria that should be a redshirt year. The NCAA has nothing to gain from not granting him another season in the FBS. It's clear some of ya'll just don't want him and are wish-casting. You better start coming around.

Posted by Burt Macklin on 12/18/25 at 8:24 am

Some of ya'll are overthinking this. All the threads on Lagway, Underwood, Mestemaker, or whoever are a waste of time. I know he's waiting on a waiver for another year of eligibility, but the NCAA always grants these nowadays and he has a good argument. Chambliss has had plenty of opportunities to reaffirm a commitment to Ole Miss and hasn't. I wouldn't expect any of those names bandied around here to transfer in to be his backup.
