John Kass is an ass

Dapoblog discusses an article that a two bit sports writer from Chicago wrote about the Saints
Here's an excerpt
People of New Orleans, lend me your ears.
We are not your sponge......So no matter what happens Sunday in the NFC championship game between the Bears and the Saints, it has nothing to do with that flood of yours.
We're not sopping up your water.
This is football....... ..Oh, I get it. If the Bears lose, New Orleans will rise above the place where it now sits, below sea level, where some ridiculous Frenchman put it, ignoring the warnings of his engineers.


I think this headshot of the assclown would make a perfect center for a dart board, don't you?

Nagin & the Chef Landfill

The landfill debacle that just won't die
New Orleans officials traded a zoning waiver needed by Waste Management to operate the Chef Menteur Landfill for the promise of a portion of the landfill’s revenue, according to a federal audit that deems the deal inappropriate and concludes the city should pay the money back.
Officials in the Nagin administration had no comment on the audit.

Of course.
bastard Nagin.

Scuzzbuckets of the week

These and other Bear fans who have proven themselves to be
sick, heartless S.O.B's.

from The Dead Pelican

Bears fans taunt Katrina victims, Saints fans... Mike Baham, who was there and took the photograph, tells THE DEAD PELICAN that he "witnessed the TV guy from New Orleans getting beer thrown at him and was the target of more katrina cracks and physical threats than I could have ever expected." (Photograph By Mike Baham (C) 2007)

May your balls freeze off if you have any, boys.

Apparently, they weren't the only nasty Bears fans out there
more and more reports..this from da poblog

What a season

From other bloggers, here's a compilation of what the Saints 2006-07 season did for this area:

From Ray in New Orleans
a message to the "Who Dat Nation".
There is a magic that imbues to the perpetual underdog that is unavailable to the routine winner. We, the City, will never be declared the winner...there's really no such thing…...


No pickles dot net proclaims We are proud of our Saints We are proud to have hosted 9 home games instead of on the road for 16. We are proud that the work ethic that brought our team into the national spotlight is something our political and business leaders can choose to emulate if they want our state to rebound. We are proud to be Louisiana natives, New Orleans citizens, and Saints fans. Our heads are held high.

From Schroeder
" Just as Sean Payton groomed his team to eliminate prima donnas, New Orleanians are organizing themselves with the support of fellow Americans around the country, and we’ve begun to operate as a team.

Sure, the Saints lost the NFC championship, but by playing as a team, they helped to win back New Orleans — an achievement far more worthy of our gratitude

From Cliff's Crib I can't be more prouder of my team. It's much better to be playing in January for something meaningful than to watch your team get embarrassed during the year and never get this chance.


Ernie chimes in You played a great game, and you had a great season. You give us hope, and you have shown us what excellence and commitment can do. We're proud to have you represent us, and we can't wait to cheer for you again. You guys are the best!

Thank You Saints!

I could watch this video forever. The feeling evoked this night - Sept 25th 2006 - was electric. After everything we'd been through, the elation was spontaneous; just as it is today, four months later.

Brian Bordelon at No Pickles explains what all of this "hoopla" is about to Saints fans .
The success of the Saints is not merely a feel-good story for us. It is the realistic possibility that some part of us can overcome the odds and succeed after the storm. It is a celebration the entire state is long overdue for. Every year we lose people, industry, coastline, all sorts of tangible positives that could help us become bigger and better. Thanks for putting it into words. Brian.

Thanks for the wonderful season. Next year will be one game longer!!!

Bless you boys!

WHO DAT!

They're showin you the money, Ray

From the TP
Nagin is in New York this week, trying to get financial support from nongovernmental groups: Wall Street firms and foundations that might provide loans or grants for a new criminal justice system and the reconstruction of city buildings and other storm-damaged infrastructure, his office said.

...Nagin often complains about how slowly his city gets federal hurricane recovery money, but figures released Thursday show that nearly $600 million is available — if only Nagin would request it.

I think Ray just likes to travel around and forget "all his troubles".
Hope all you assclowns that voted for him are resting well, knowing that you're helping to delay NOLA's recovery.
