Scouring the official NFL website, I keep reading about all the other teams coming to agreements with their draft picks. It occurs to me that I haven't heard word one yet from mission control on the status of our draftees yet. I am sure it is possible that I missed the announcement, but in the case I didn't....is it time to worry? 7 days until camp kicks off, and i need to know if anyone has the scoop on our picks, and if unsigned players are even allowed to report to camp. That would be a nightmare start for our rooks to miss time learning the system due to negotiations.....sign em already!

On a lighter note for you locals...my bar is having our 21st annual Mid-summer Mardi Gras parade on Saturday, August 28th. It is more of a costumed bar stroll through uptown ending with a ball at the Mapleleaf. Tickets are $15 with Ivan Neville's Dumpstafunk featuring Walter Washington as the entertainment until 4am. The Saints are hopefully sponsoring a golf cart and have agreed to donate autographed footballs by Joe Horn and Deuce Mcallister that will be raffled off at the door. Let me know if ya interested and I will save a ticket for you...would love to meet the other local fanatics on here!
