    What an awful call. Nats have to win or else this is a stain on baseball.

    I’m sorry are you fishing for praise? Yes the Saints defense is very good. Mitch has sucked all season against all types of defenses. And the Bears had a really awesome defense last year and I don’t remember them holding any teams to under 100 yards of offense until garbage time. Nope. I’m saying maybe him coming off injury and facing a good D that it’s not as gloomy as you guys are posting. Good luck to you and I hope you trash the Packers when you play them.

    I know that I should duck and cover after this, but maybe the Saints defense, especially the run defense, is elite and judging Trubisky on his first week back against this team isn’t a fair assessment? I mean, there was no running room in the first half. Great D line vs a shitty O line.

    Just give Sean Payton Coach of the Year right now.

    What a horse horsefeathers holding call. This game should not be close.

    Ted Ginn has been my least favorite Saints player for awhile now. This is how the Saints have been winning games since Drew has been out. Just enough offense and great D. Not sure it’s enough today.

    Latavius Murray has been completely unimpressive so far this season. Kamara’s toughness between tackles beyond his shiftiness is what makes him a special RB. The Saints run game will absolutely suffer today. Again, if the Saints can pull this off, I’d expect Taysom Hill to play a big role.

    First decade the Yankees have not appeared in a WS since the 1910’s, yet they have the most wins in this decade.

    Crazy not even Joe Buck can stop the chills from happening. Now play the Hughes call to watch me break down. I alwAys thought the Pat Hughes call of the final out was pretty underwhelming.

    Well, yeah. It's not as if landlords are all rolling around in piles of money. I busted ass doing work on a rental property mostly from info on YouTube videos because I couldn't afford to pay workers to hang sheetrock. I've been burned by tenants who didn't pay rent, money that I depended on to make the house payments. Tenants have secretly sublet my place out for Mardi Gras to frat boys who trashed the place and pissed off the neighbors. It's a vital part of my income, not some scheme to screw over people and get rich. That house is nearly as much a full time job as my real full time job. I'm also a landlord, but my wife is handier than me so she does all that blue collar stuff. (Except for plumbing stuff and electrical stuff, she hates that.) Pretty sweet deal for me! The trick is to get tenants who don't suck, and then when you don't screw them over and respond to their issues, everyone is happy. I don't get why everyone doesn't do it this way. My first tenants were awesome and I was great to them. My house was built in the 1870's and flooded during Katrina (which made it pretty cheap, obviously), so the maintenance is a little trickier than the average place. It's been a crapshoot since that couple, though. Sometimes the good ones turn to horsefeathers over time.

    Kamara and Jared Cook ruled out for Sunday. That is going to make things pretty dicey for the Saints. I'd expect a larger roll for Taysom Hill at QB Sunday to get the offense moving.

    Everyone feels this way until someone trashes an apartment they own. Well, yeah. It's not as if landlords are all rolling around in piles of money.

    Mahomes should have been picked off twice in addition to one time he was - we're always reading this about Mitch. Mahomes and Watson both looked terrible at times, made dumb mistakes, Mahomes threw the ball up grabs on several occasions. I'd imagine most would still take either over Mitch and rightfully so, for the most part Mitch has been terrible. Keep hearing about a "good" Saints defense, don't see it, statistically, they're middle of the pack perhaps, it's the sacks, think it's the only statistic in which they're top 10. Do not think it unreasonable that the Bears should be able to move the ball and score some points. The D had a rough start against Houston and the Rams but has been lights out since then, especially vs the run. Here's how RB's have fared against them in the last 4 weeks: Chris Carson 15 CAR 52 YDS 3.5 AVG Ezekiel Elliott 18 CAR 35 YDS 1.9 AVG Ronald Jones II 9 CAR 35 YDS 3.9 AVG Leonard Fournette 20 CAR 72 YDS 3.6 AVG They also have had Rankins and Onyemata return to the D line and are running 9 deep there now. The front 7 is definitely the strength of the defense. Lattimore is becoming a shut down corner, but on the opposite side Eli Apple has been picked on a bit.

    Seriously. South Carolina should have gone for it on 4th and 3 rather than try a 58 yard FG at the end of regulation. Then in the second OT they go for it on 4th and 1 rather than try the FG (they got it but kicked a FG later in the drive). Then at the end of the first OT, they try to center the ball rather than go for the first down on 3rd and 3. I know it was only a 33 yarder but you need to go for the first down. And why at the end of regulation didn’t Georgia call timeout when Carolina was at 2nd and long from midfield then 3rd and long? They would have had plenty of time to drive down the field for a better shot.
  17. NOLA
    The end of game coaching by both Georgia and South Carolina has been awful. Neither of them deserve to win.
  18. NOLA
    This is a joke, right? RIGHT?

    Hawk and Javy probably are the most beloved Cubs since I’ve started watching and old enough to pay attention to things like that.

    There were several Nats WS picks before the season. As mentioned earlier, they might can pull a Schilling/Johnson all the way to a title.
  21. NOLA
    Anyone got an idea how the Nats rotation will set up for the NLCS?
  22. NOLA
    Yeah, I’m rooting for Washington now.
  23. NOLA
    Drew probably won't be back until after Chicago. In any case, I'd be very surprised if the Bears are favored in that game.
  24. NOLA
    Yeah, lol Browns. Odell meltdown coming soon. The AFC North, and most of the AFC for that matter, is garbage.
