Since I was out at Saints Camp, working my other job producing WWL radioÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s Draft Fest, I kept a running journal of the dayÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s festivities. ItÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s a whole new world without the big manÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€ÂBuddy D....

5:50 p.m. ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ Saints just took safety Josh Bullocks of Nebraska. My first thought was, ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã…Â“What the $#%?ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬? Maybe they forgot they signed Dwight Smith in free agency? Then again, Jay Bellamy is 50-years-old and if they have an injury, do you really want Mel Mitchell or Steve Gleason taking a lot of snaps? Me neither.

For all you people wanting Georgia linebacker Odell Thurman in round two, remember this: the guy reportedly flunked three drug tests and one Saints front office person wanted the team to take him off the draft board completely. In other wordsÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã‚Â¦Thurman might have more drugs in his system than Keith Richards did at Woodstock. The guy likes to party, so New Orleans might not have been the best spot for him.

hmmmmm

This doesn\'t sell me on Bullock, but it does cool me on Thurman quite a bit.

he had some definite red flags-
mother died in a car crash when 10
alcoholic father died in 2003
kicked off team as a freshman for breaking rules and a barfight
underage possesion of alcohol the next year
dispute with a girlfriend last year
suspended for 3 games

no known flunking of drug tests though. these are officially reported like dt hawthorne.

sounds kinda like a young ray lewis. marvin lewis must have thought so too.

ray lewis was on trial for murder so your saying you don\'t wont ray lewis on your team

The cowboy dynasty was full of crackheads but they did win super bowls.

Too what about adrian M past its clean either but everyone loves the pick

????
He wasn\'t on trial for the murder, he was on trial for being an accessory and not cooperating with the law.

I never said I didn\'t want Thurman on my team. He was my 2nd favorite choice. You just assumed I did because I posted an article about his reported drug problem.
Where did I say I didn\'t want him?

.. I cannot trust that man as a source... The Rolling Stones did not play Woodstock.. :P

Imagine that. Someone assuming the intent of another poster\'s post. Why, that would never happen around here.
