If boating out to your home built upon stilts in the middle of Mississippi river delta is your thing...
might be some good red fishing...and duck hunting out there.

That support for the Saints will be short lived, especially if they aren't winning
The Saints haven't won for 40 years and the dome still sold out regularly despite 1 playoff win in franchise history.

The people that are gone from NO are people who didn't go to Saints games anyway, unless it's part of a welfare program.
Would you like some chapagna?

Pretty cool that BG has a history of hosting pro-ball camps.

Are you taking private posting lessons from Flipper? :smt081
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

Well the stats tell the truth and they didn't sell out their stadium... it was full just not to capacity.


As for the CFL comment... they tried that in the US... and it failed miserably.

Are there other cities that could support a team? Sure... would they? Whole other question. Plus what happens when the team is bad and you are in Oklahoma City, Birmingham Alabama... when you have the Sooners and the Crimson Tide?

And for the A-hole who made the comment about the twin towers... where is your heart... because you don't have one. Those towers were knocked down by terrorists not by a natural disaster that was inevitable... unless you're saying that inevitably all Sky Scrapers will be knocked down by planes... and if that is the case... I hope the NSA is listening in on your phone calls.
