Maybe you guys could send some snow to Denver. I’d love to ride on something other than ice this weekend in the mountains

It will be broken now. 43 years of losing has now vanished. It has snowed in NOLA 3 times in the last 2 to 3 months! The only thing negative about this offseason is that the Saints can’t go after free agents because of the rules. We will retain who we have and that’s it. Draft some guys. I think Atlanta finishes second in the division and goes in as a wildcard.

By the way, Atlanta go a half an inch of snow last week and the whole city shut down. We can’t drive in any amount of snow. We only get it one or two days a year so we don’t get much practice.

I see how you can draw that conclusion but every year this tradition seems to hold true. The Saints finished dead last last year and look like they had no chance of winning the division and yet they did. What you said was very logical but that tradition always rears it’s ugly head and the last year’s division winner finishes last place. Until I see the tradition broken, I’m believing in it.

It’s great. There was an awesome victory parade on Tuesday. It was carnival style too. Everyone is wearing saints jerseys nonstop. In fact I’m at home right now wearing my Saints skull cap. I’m off work today because the roads are iced over. Sounds pansy…but we only know how to drive in torrential downpours and high winds…not ice lol.

Saints will repeat as champs of the NFC South. Bucs and Kittens won’t be competitive this year. Atlanta and NOLA will split games and go for the division crown. I see NOLA taking it by 2 games though.

Saints break curses dude. Look at this past season as evidence.

M$ will be reduced to a games publisher only like Sega before it’s all said and done.

Awesome, glad to know there is someone else who thinks King’s writing is good.

I think he will be discussed at the collegiate level at the least. He has written in many genres and his Dark Tower series is the culmination of all his works. He creates a very interesting mythology within everything he has ever done in his career. Anne Rice did something similar in her writing, but never to the level that King took it.

You realize that King wrote Hearts in Atlantis and that it was later made into a movie by Disney I think. In Hearts of Atlantis it chronicles the Whites and the Breakers. Both of whom come into play in the Dark Tower series. He has such interesting tie-ins in his extensive works that I simply find that fascinating and worthy of at least one lecture in school. Maybe two lol.

I was never a big King fan based on the movies, but once I started reading his work, I was hooked.

How is it in Nola after the Superbowl win? You know about our NFC South worst to first and first to worst tradition right? That means the Saints will finish last and the Bucs will finish first in our division. The Saints were last in the division last year but this year they were first and won the big one. The NFC South worst to first and first to worst tradition is just as real as the Madden curse. By the way, EA is having fans vote on the Madden 11 cover athlete and the nominees are Brett Favre, Jared Allen, and Drew Brees. I vote Drew Brees, hehe.
