3:00 PM START IS KILLING ME

In terms of crowd noise in the Dome, my feeling on it has always been

7 PM Game > 3 PM game > noon game

Night games are typically the loudest/craziest, and I think the Saints respond to it and play better at night....sometimes I kinda wish they ALL could be night games. The way I look at it, every hour spent drinking before the game, ups the noise potential by +1 dB per fan.

So I like a 3 PM kickoff just fine...gives the fans a chance to get a good leisurely head of steam (or should I say "suds") going before the kickoff... I bet Champions Square will be rocking. Plus, looking forward, a lot of people expect to have a light week at work ahead this next week; that week of Thanksgiving, nothing much ever gets done in a lot of places, so people will be ready to start the party rolling on Sunday.
