1) Large beer in the newly renovated Superdome: $9.00 Somehow this didn't make the T-P's glowing review of the "upgrades." Note: In 2006 $9 in the Superdome would get you a DOUBLE Bloody Mary
2) Sean Payton said this about evaluating young players. "If they don't bite when they're puppies, they're probably never gonna."
3) Joseph Morgan is this year's Larry Beavers
4) Johnny Patrick yadda yadda yadda... WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO JOIQUE BELL?
"Johnny Patrick has a knee, X-rays were negative," Saints Coach Sean Payton said.
Receiver Robert Meachem also appeared to get dinged when he took a knee to the kidney area. He left the game but appeared to be OK as he stood on the sideline. Payton said Meachem had a lower back strain. Defensive tackle Tom Johnson left the game just before halftime. He said he tweaked his left calf and left the locker room in a walking boot. Running back Joique Bell also had to leave the game late with an undisclosed injury. Payton said he believes Patrick's injury was the only significant one of the game.
5) Cox Sports employs Tim Brado and Solomon Wilcots to deliver play by play and analysis of the fake games. Wilcots steadfastly refused to surrender his notion that Chase Daniel should be pronounced with an "S" on the end. Meanwhile America refuses to surrender the notion that the word Wilcots should actually end with an "X" so it all evens out anyway.
Also Wilcots informed us that an interception by rookie linebacker Nate Bussey which occurred with about eight minutes to play in the 4th quarter of a preseason game was "big time."
6) Joe Horn's Bayou 87 BBQ Sauce: "tastes so good that you'll have to pick up the phone and call somebody!" Discuss.
7) The further adventures of Thomas Morstead Dream Traffic Reporter of Tomorrow Continue discussion.
And that's enough for one fake game I barely even noticed. Saints aren't back in the Dome until September 1. Hopefully I'll find the flask by then.
