Monday Night Football 1979 versus Oakland.


Saints up 35-14 at the half.

Lost 42-35.

My dad was some kinda mad, and he didn't even watch football much.

I respect many of you most of the time, and some of you none of the time.

I must be old, dumb, or both.

Maybe just missing something.

Did Dreadlocks of Doom happen, or not?

I must be missing something.

Edit: Reading comprehension fails me again! I see now: basketball and football. Very different.

Life's Rich Pageant and Queen is Dead.

Saw both in New Orleans that fall.

I like the first version of these:

I forgot about these. I've read two of them.

When we had Brees it felt like we were never really out of a game. I know that's not entirely true, but if always felt like a good team.

Fournette was different before J.D. Moore got hurt.

While I agree with most on this question - I don't ultimately know regarding this young man and certainly don't care - I'll answer for the sake of knowledge.

Dual enrollment is replacing Advanced Placement courses in many high schools. Students take a greater variety and larger number of courses from the local community college. In many cases these classes transfer directly to the state college. I think the number may be between 5-15 classes.

Yeah, not to knock any of our past coaches, but his recall of the game specific situations, he explanation and transparency on decision-making, his complimentary nature toward us, and his support of his players...are impressive.

When I was taking guitar lessons in the 80's, we usually worked on scales. One day the teacher was absent and the owner of the music store ran the lessons. We strummed the same four chords for an hour. It made an impression on me.

Like a taekwondo weekend event that I attended once, and the teacher had us stretch for 30 minutes - until it hurt.

"Astylos of Croton in southern Italy won a total of six victory olive wreaths in three Olympiads (488-480 B.C.) in the stade and the diaulos (twice the stade) events. In the first Olympiad, he ran for Croton and his compatriots honoured and glorified him. In the two successive Olympiads, however, he took part as a citizen of Syracuse. The people of Croton punished him by demolishing his statue in their city and converting his house into a prison."
