How about them Bobcats??

Finally...you see, if you get enough of your players out of jail and sobered up...you have a pretty good team !!

I requested that my mother and her man Dick plan a trip to New Orleans next year about this time....as it seems they end up in "playoff" cities quite often. They were in Carolina a few years ago (with their Seahawks t-shirts on) and they are in San Diego this year. I told them to get their little tiny hineys to New Orleans, since my Saints need ALL the help they can muster.

You ask why I am a Saints fan....(or maybe you don't - but you are getting the damn story anyways.)

When I moved to Jackson with Dad (1981 !!!) we watched very little TV, but what we did watch was sports. We watched Thursday night fights faithfully (and I still love to watch boxing). We watched football too (I think Dad was a Packer fan??) and I LOVED Earl Campbell. Of course, I watched every Houston Oiler game I could. Therego, I thought Bum Phillips was the man !!

So, when Bum moved to New Orleans...my fanhood followed. Why I still like them...because I have some cool Saints hats and one sweatshirt. I like the Fleur de lie....way better than an OIL RIG for a logo.

I remember the day John Lennon died. I think we were watching basketball...I was pissed.

I have to go now....MY UNCLE BILL just walked in.
