Reports saying that Saints may not go to West Virginia this spring.

Big Plus!
Enough of the Day Spa. Either come back to NOLA, or if you really want to be Battle Ready, take it back to Jackson. The great fans in Mississippi deserve it, and a preseason game. |

Maybe Payton doesn't want Hard Knocks to show how much of a vacation it is in West Virginia.

Re: Saints may return home for camp this year
This NEEDS to happen. We were soft coming off the last two years in camp. Time to man up and get in game shape early to start the year off right and build momentum.

Re: Saints may return home for camp this year
The team that practiced in metarie under the intense heat certainly played better as a unit.

Some of the bigger issues for the Saints and winning had more to do with having an extremely young team on D, coaches & the level of talent in camp vs Greenbriar, WV. I just don't see how practicing in high humidity can assist in conditioning but that's just me.Denver, NE, Seattle, Ravens, Giants (all recent SB winners) have TC's in higher altitude type settings. Flame away  .

Heat, humidity and rain are problems down here. Perhaps they plan on practicing in the indoor facility more than usual. |

Re: Saints may return home for camp this year
Poor choice on a few levels. Don't understand it. There are ways to mitigate the heat.
