So far Prophet, Mars and I. Hopefully Jargom will come too.

ejmat, jargo, marst, prophet.....would be nice to have a bunch of pp.oers in the big easy. We should probably have Ned and his cane in case things get out of hand.

Once the dates are released and the game gets close I can point y'all to the spots to check out gameday (pre/post.)

See y'all down here.

Have you ever been to Willie Mae's Scotch House? I heard they have the best fried chicken.

Took some out of state friends there once. The fried chicken was very good. IMO if you are only down for a limited time I would go for the crawfish and other seafood.

Gameday you will find the the Dome is not like other places as it does not have a large parklot that everyone sets up and tailgates. There are many small parking lots/bar close to the Dome that everyone enjoys. The French Quarter is within walking distance for after the game. At some point next season there will be a new tailgating park opening up next to the Dome. It should be very nice!!!

Spoken like a man that currently lives >1000 miles from the ocean and is moving to a desert. You wouldn't want to eat seafood when you are below sea level and a couple inches from the Gulf. You are probably one of those guys that goes to a famous Honduran restaurant and orders a hamburger.

PLEASE STOP CRYING ABOUT THE NON CALL !!

The roughing the passer call 2 plays before that extended the drive and was total BS ! The non call was a payback for the one that shouldn't have been called.

Also on the end around handoff the uneccesaary roughness call was also BS. After Favre handed the ball off he was running right at the Saints player and got leveled. Favre is a blocker and fair game there. There was nothing illegal about that hit.


Let's not forget the Cheap shot FAVRE ( Fined $10,000 by the NFL) delivered on the crackback block on Eugene Wilson earlier this year causing him to miss 2 weeks. Don't think for second players around the league forget stuff like that.

The Vikings had 5 penalties for 32 yards while the Saints had 9 penalties for 88 yards.

I didnt see the Saints getting to Manning much last Sunday, how about we look at our O line instead of the refs ?

First I'm going to start off by saying the refs didn't cost the game. Turnovers were a big cause. However, don't sit here and say the roughing the passer call was BS. By rule you cannot piledrive or force the QB to the ground. He did that. I don't agree with the rule but by definition it was a penalty.

If you think the Vikes had the caalls in the game then just look at the OT. PI? My ASS. 1st down and the run by Thomas? My ASS. Catch to set up the FG? My ASS. Penalties are going to be part of every game but let's face it, the Saints didn't earn 1 of those first downs in OT. Not one of them.

I do agree when Favre becomes a blocker he is fair game. No complaints there. But let me ask you. If that's Brady or Manning, do you think they get that call?

Manning or brady would not have got hit in that situation, watch the replay Favre tried to get himself in fron of th e tackler and was promptly handed his ass. He could have easilly avoided that hit.

Did you forget that Favre like to block once in a while and is not the cleanest guy when he does as he was fined 10K and put the Texans guy out a few weekss with that crackback block in a PRESEASON game no less !

Nope I didn't forget at all. How do you know Brady or Manning would have never let that happen? Are you in their minds now? Are you telling me neither of them ever threw a block? LMAO! Besides, that wasn't my question. Do you think they would have got the flag thrown? My answer is yes.

Favre was handed his ass and the Saint organization openly admitted they were trying to take QBs out of the game. However, did you not freaking read what I posted? Here let me repeat. "I do agree when Favre becomes a blocker he is fair game. No complaints there."

This isn't the 1970s. There are now rules in place that forbids that type of behavior on the field. Do I agree? Not with all of it. It doesn't take away the fact the rules are there and that the Saints played dirty in this game (openly admitting it).

Where did the Saints openly admit "trying to take QBs out of the game"???? Link????? Are you talking about what G. Williams said about Manning (after the NFCCG)?? If so go back and read what he said. The whole thing.

Where openly admitted playing dirty????? Again Link?????? There was an illegal hit and they were fined for it.

Link where they admitted it or be proven a cry baby. Favregot hit just like the Vikings hit Romo!!! Again the Saints had ONE illegal hit and was fined for it.

All teams try to take out the QB. Not in an illegal way but by knocking him on his ass the legal way. That was what happened to your QB in the NFCCG. Were you upset at the Vikings for tagging Romo like they did??? I think not. If your team wins they are hard hits and if they lose it was dirty??? That is how it comes off.

Dude, we can go back and forth on this. No one is going to convience the other. Yes I am talking about what Gregg Williams said. "We are going out there with the intentions of knocking the QB out of the game". You want a link? I will presume you don't need one since you knew exactly what I was talking about.

As far as Romo is concerned, show me one illegal hit. Just one. You can deny what you want pal but the Saints did play dirty by intentionally piledriving the QB and by going after his knee/ankle. That is considered dirty in today's game (fine or no fine). Just because the guy lost money on it doesn't make it right just like when Favre was fined I didn't cry, whine or deny it was wrong.

The difference between you and I is I can admit when someone on the team I am rooting for does something wrong. Eviedntly you cannnot. So continue asking for your links. You know exactly what happened and so does the rest of the unbiased world. Link - LMAO. Do you really need the links to your questions? Really?

While you are at it there was another play where they hit Favre late and it wasn't penalized. The fact is, I am not here to whine or cry about hitting. It's all part of the game. But you seem to want to take it there. YOU are the one that brought it up by saying the Vikings and their fans are whining about it. The Vikings lost the game because of turnovers and in turn, the final score. Not because the Saints beat them. The Vikings beat them in every legal facet of the game other than the final score. Lucky for you and unfortunate for the Vikings fans the one place where it counts the Saints won.

Consider this post your link.
