Quick hits before kickoff

  • From the T-P's endorsement of President Obama this morning,
    He possesses expertise that should endear him to the New Orleans area. He knows cities - historic cities, gritty cities. He came by his knowledge pounding the streets of Chicago's South Side as an organizer, grappling with the needs of poor people. For our own great and complex city, we could use a national leader who appreciates that we are more than a sentimental memory of a college romp on Bourbon Street; that we are a culturally rich American treasure, filled with resilient citizens and worth protecting from the encroaching forces of nature.


  • I think the Saints minus Bush and Poochie are the strongest they've been all season and have an excellent chance to win today.


  • I think that Les Miles should be fired immediately.


  • I think Chris Rose can be an enormous douchebag as evidenced by ridiculous columns like this one... but a man's personal demons are no laughing matter and are deserving of every human's sympathy and concern.



There's a lot of football to talk about. But right now I'm watching the game. More later.
