I missed their pub food and being able to just walk up to the bar to taste and order beers. The atmosphere pretty much sucked. We left after several minutes without ordering. It used to be one of our favorite stops.

That's pretty much the story of local eateries and pubs of late in NOLA.
Covid and crime has ruined many a fan favorite, sadly. Truly hope it improves. It can only improve, right, or is that asking too much?

One would hope so. I lived in New Orleans in the seventies and crime has only gotten worse. Hey, at least it's not Mobile Alabama where they have the second lowest life expectancy rate and consistently rank number one as the murder capital of the US.

There will be more. Don't forget that basically our entire coaching staff was Payton's hires, not Dennis Allen's, especially on the offensive side.

That would be nice but somehow I don't see Roger Goodell letting us have compensatory picks if he can get away with taking them. He's an evil little man.

Edit: I wonder if Rodger Goodell will continue to hate on Sean Payton in Denver? It's obvious that he's got a grudge against Sean for calling him out.

Goodell has no say on compensatory picks for coaching hires. That said, compensatory picks for coaching hires only applies for an upward hire of a minority to either a coordinator or head coaching position or to certain front office positions.
