Ouch. This is getting ridiculous. I know the Titans are “good,” but this just isn’t the same Saints team as last year. Marques Colston and Devery Henderson aren’t catching everything thrown their way; Before he went down with what appears to be a season ending ACL injury, Deuce McAllister is not having much success pounding it up the middle; Somehow, someone transformed Drew Brees into Rex Grossman.
I have four theories:
- “Playing off of emotion,” my favorite sports cliche, is actually a real, scientifically proven phenomenon. If I were any smarter, and a grad student in sports psychology, I’d conduct a study…hint, hint.
- The Saints had a great game plan last year and this year, every team they’ve played has the game plan figured out. Maybe in an effort to supplement his income, MachiaBelichick has begun selling his secret videotape stash, analysis and intel on The Saints. It’s not a stretch. He must have thought he’d play the Bears or the Saints in the Super Bowl before getting beat in the AFC Championship game by the Colts and so it’s not out of the realm of imagination that he has volumes of research. Hey, the Bears are 1-2.
- After playing possum for a year where a Bush finally came to help the Crescent City, the real Bush is back to fuck New Orleans again.
- Voodoo, bitches!
As for the Titans, Vince Young still throws like Uncle Rico but that dude wins games. It blows my mind.
I’m off to Wisconsin for the week. I’m expecting everybody to be going crazy about the Packers 3-0 start. With a big rivalry game on Sunday against the Vikings, maybe I’ll file a report from the NFC North front line. In either case, you’ll be in the capable hands of Alikat and C.J.
Cheese curds and Leinenkugels, here I come.
