This season nowhere near the level of the first 3 seasons.


At least they play soccer in this season. Season 3 was an after-school special about not saving nudes on your phone.

Yeah, season 3 was so saccharine I got diabetes. Season 4 doesn't hold a candle to seasons 1 or 2, but not nearly as many cringe moments as season 3.

show needs a good foil like Rupert and so far, I don't see one.
Agree, but the new assistant soccer coach is a fun addition. Also need to bring back Nate.
Don't think there is much of a market after that game. He's still worth more to us, even as a 3rd stringer, than some 6-7 pick swap or similar nothing pick we might get for him.

Going to be some difficult decisions with the WR room


The only decision is do we keep 5 or 6 on the active roster.
Olave
Tyson
Vele
Brown
Lance
Maybe Austin Jr

Everyone else gets a shot on the practice squad.

This. I long ago realized airline travel is a measure of mental fortitude. OP failed.

You don't think Bill will vote against Blanche just because Trump promised not to endorse his opponent in exchange for confirming RFK, and then went back on his word, do you? Who would be that petty?

NOF was one of the last one's to come around to Shough and admit his talents.
NOF was easily lured back to dick riding Rattler again cause that was always their primary motive.
I listen to every podcast. This is nonsense.

if a QB desperate team is willing to give the Saints anything beyond a 6 or 7 round pick in a trade the Saints have to strongly consider it.
If he's good enough for another team to trade for him, to replace him with a similar caliber QB would be much more expensive. The value of a good backup if your starter is down a couple games is huge. Saints would have to get a premium to take the risk. Excluding player for player, anything less than a 3rd is not worth it.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with wanting answers to questions like this. We have the answer now we can move on.
Im some rando on the internet and I heard you are secretly this rapist kid. I demand you prove you are not him. I just want answers!
Social media is a cancer. And too many of you believe anything some rando posts just because it's online. Some poor Butler look-alike on campus was a couple days from being lynched if it was up to the tards here.

"Once Upon a Time In Hollywood"
This is mine as well, I think because on first viewing everything was tainted with dread and tension because I knew it had to end with the Manson murders. And then of course it didn't. On 2nd viewing I could really enjoy the movie as a celebration of a Hollywood era, and look forward to the revenge fantasy. Sure was awesome when those hippies got theirs.
It's always the black ones. I blame the culture.

Hope he wins a superbowl on the Broncos, even if it is with Denver Against New Orleans.
Well since you're clearly more of a Taysom Hill fan than a Saints fan, does this mean you'll start trolling the Broncos fan message boards instead of here? Gotta follow your guy, right? Please?

Just go away.

Upham isn't a character. At least not one as a single individual. He is there solely as a personification of lost innocence.

Upham represents every scared, innocent American boy who tries to see the best in others (like the German POW), can't bring himself to kill, until finally his innocence is thrown away and he kills the guy at the end. Upham is just Spielberg's vehicle for this.

I've also read that Upham represents the United States - pulled reluctantly into war after millions(?) have already sacrificed their lives, losing it's innocence as a nation. Letting the Jew die, stabbed in the heart by a German, is the U.S. not intervening early enough to stop the Holocaust.
quote:

That he signed for less than Drake London is wild
The difference between Olave and Drake London's contract probably reflects the additional amount the Saints had to pay Lloyds of London or whoever to insure Olave's contract against injury. Olave's team probably knew this would have to be accounted for from the start of negotiations.

And remember, if Olave gets hurt any insurance money paid to the team is credited back to the salary cap. I guarantee the Saints are covered.
