nothing all that earth shaking in the piece. much the same list since we won the super bowl and still failed to reach again last year.

he is a good writer but this looks like a cut and paste job for the most part

News outlets these days want volume with some small amount of quality. When I started in the news business in 1997 it was pretty much the exact opposite. My quota back then was 4 stories a week, now for most reporters it's something in the 12-15 range, plus posting Twitter updates, doing video pieces for the web, doing a lot of smaller tasks that back in the day would've been handled by a clerk or an intern. The workload is unbelievable. So you're going to get quite a few pieces that aren't exactly prize-winners.

We are lucky as Saints fans to be able to read Holder and Tripplett. Two of the best in the business. Read some of the hot garbage other teams' beat writers are doing and you'll understand why. LOL

That's the function of 24 hour news and internet. Filling 25 pages 7 times a week is a different requirement than keeping relevant content on a website to get people to come back more than once a day.
