Take A Nap

 As I sat watching the Saints Sunday, the fans began to file out early - this time because the game was out of reach in a good way.

I chose not to leave, but instead to just drink it in right up to the final snap.

Is this the best team - team - the Saints have ever had?

Probably.

What does it mean?

Not a Thing.

There's a long way to go.

 

But it just proves that turnarounds can be quick in the NFL when you answer the question we always have asked ourselves as we sat there year after year.

Why can't we get some better players?

 

Last year, as every year,  I thought we were just a few players away.

Sean Payton assessed the team and agreed.

A few players.

About 40.

 

So I marvel at how well disciplined this team is with just a short time together.

 

Now comes Dallas.  Unfortunately I have an instinct that the team that loses this game will then have the upper hand in a playoff rematch.  So, we need to go to Dallas and dominate - and leave no doubt, or play it close to the vest.  Remember, they pounded us in pre-season in Shreveport.

 

Either way, it's a great opportunity for us to have a terrific Sunday night viewing party.  We may even tailgate in the front yard - weather permitting.  Bob Richards plans on cooking a turkey, Donnie is thinking Red Beans & Rice.  It should be a great time - and you'd be foolish to miss it. 

 

If you worried about work Monday morning - take a Sunday afternoon siesta.

Take a Nap during those other boring NFL games.

See you Sunday night.
