***CORRECTION*** For those of us in the Central Time Zone (New Orleans), that is Noon...

JoeSam League guys should be familiar with time zones, finding autodraft an hour into the draft has ensured your donor status for the year...

I am on a wait and see. Yesterday was not encouraging, but I want to see what we hear after that and what we see Sunday. Getting the snot beat out of us in practice doesn't necessarily mean a thing, but Sunday if we don't like competitive or at least solid Some worries will creep in.

Want to see what our dline brings sunday.

I am on a wait and see. I am not going to sit here and make a bunch of excuses for piss poor play and I am not. yet, going to scream the sky is falling.

But let this be a lesson to some- losing two players on your offensive line matters. Losing starters hurts.

I was glad to hear Ram did a really good job and it is nice to know Unger will be back. Those two things are worth their weight in gold

Another player who has been quiet in OTA's, scrimmages, pre season thus far ...

Coby Fleener. I joked a few weeks ago about him taking a big hit in practice from Vonn Bell that has him "gun shy" but I'm starting to re think that Fleener is nursing some type of injury. It's time to bring it. Of course I'm not expecting him to be Jimmy Graham great but at least Ben Watson good. Minnesota (game #1) will be here before you know it.

I keep reading and hearing on the radio that the Saints know what they have with Fleener and he doesn't really need the reps so they are taking it slow.
That's B.S. at the very least Fleener needs to be on the sideline playing catch with a 12 year old so he can learn how not to drop the ball.

Marcus Williams with a pick, Al Quadin Muhammad with 2 strong wins and Lattimore breaking up several passes.

This is what I like to hear.

Secondary sounds on point today. Looks like Lattimore is just fine. If his hammy holds up he could be the real deal.

Starting to think this team is better coached and better talent than previous. Could win some games this year

WRC Curtis Johnson > Brandon Coleman, Corey Fuller

DLC Ryan Nielsen > Hau'oli Kikaha, Sheldon Rankins, David Onyemata, Trey Hendrickson, Al Muhammad...

LBC Mike Nolan > Stephone Anthony, Alex Anzalone


So that's three new position coaches with a definite uptick in the performance of those players...

Not too mention how much better A.J. Klein and Alex Okafor will improve as well...

Not holding my breath or holding it against Curtis Johnson, if Ginn still doesn't gain reliable mitts...

Now these are the nuggets that I truly appreciate...

Starting tight end Coby Fleener headlines a group of players not observed on the practice field. Fleener has missed two straight days of work for unknown reasons.

Joining Fleener are tight end Clay Harbor, wide receiver Travin Dural, wide receiver Jack Lampman, center Jack Allen, linebacker Stephone Anthony, cornerback Taveze Calhoun, cornerback Delvin Breaux (fibula).

Anthony has missed three straight days of practice, but it is unclear as to what is keeping him from the field.


Tight end Josh Hill, who was not on the field Thursday, returned Friday morning and put in a full practice.

Ted Ginn Jr., who hasn't been on the practice for three consecutive sessions, was on the field Friday, but did not participate in anything outside of the stretching portion of practice.

------------------------------------

Word is that Ginn has been soaking his hands in a softening solution.

Is Ginn using T.O.'s urine? Worked pretty well for him.

As we transition from Training Camp to full on Preseason, I gotta say, this is the type of camp and competition the team has needed...

That West Virginia dalliance of Sean Payton's really set this team back a few seasons...

We're the Saints, hot, humid is what makes a mean, tough, nasty team...

The Junction Boys made for a good movie. Modern medical science now shows it's the absolutely worst conditions for an athlete to train in. Altitude and ideal weather best (Seahawks, Pats, Denver, 49ers).

Major, I don't discount the science, but it's the mental toughness that's gained...

Those teams have been better because they've made better personnel decisions, draft management...

Look at what happened to the 49ers when one man had all the control...

Belichick may be running the show, but he's been wise to put personnel people he listens and trusts...

Payton, till very recently, had to feel he was pushing all the buttons, pulling all the levers...

that's the difference between us and them...
