re: Saints might have very tough draft decision next year !!
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 4/29/25 at 10:04 am
What a retarded question, the reason the Shough pick is good is because it’s only a 2nd rd pick… he’s got top level traits, let him play this year and see what you’ve got, and you don’t have so much invested that if he doesn’t work you are hindered from picking a qb high next year.

re: Best Male MTV Challenge Winner?
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 4/22/25 at 12:34 am
Wes and Bananas are the 2 best Challengers as far as the entire dynamic. They basically became producers and knew how to create good tv and also were great competitors.
I’d argue Johnny often had casts stacked to help him and numerous random twists would randomly help him or frick over Wes. Also, Wes’ run on fresh meat w Casey was one of the most impressive things on the show ever
CT is all time, great character arc and has the wins.
Jordan, hard to ignore his success, but my caveat is he’s not a great tv character and much of his success is due to the Challenge finals becoming so much of a running/endurance event where he crushes everyone.
Evan or Kenny would probably be next for me… if they don’t get kicked off then Johnny probably isn’t nearly as dominant and probably doesn’t have the career he has now.

Should you take “lunch pail” guys earlier in today’s culture
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 4/21/25 at 12:16 am
Was having this convo with a friend and curious to the boards thoughts,
With the exploding contracts of so many skill players including guaranteed $$. So many guys sit out games at the slightest injury and aren’t nearly as hard working and gritty as it takes to succeed in the nfl…
Would it be worthwhile to pass over some talent in early rounds of drafts to specifically focus on positions and players who are true football junkies and “lunch pail” types and swing for those better athletes in the mid rounds.
So in theory you end up paying guys big $$ who will still be grinders and the guys you took in the mid rounds are still incentivized to ball out to get their big contract.

Ideally we draft a LG in the 2nd and Radunz becomes a high level depth piece.

Who are the modern era “Great Men of History”
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 2/24/25 at 9:54 pm
Saw something about great men of history and that got me wondering who would qualify from modern times.
My first thought was
Trump- pretty obvious, his business career and celebrity and then his legacy as president and dominating this era culturally
Elon- resume is also obvious with his business career and now DOGE
Steve Joba/Bezos creating such big companies that capture the culture
Modi- leading India into the modern age
President Xi- China is now a serious competitor to us because of his leadership
Michael Jordan/Tiger Woods- their sports career transcended their sport and were worldwide cultural forces
Any others?

Not only was he in Nola during Super Bowl week, but he came back a few days later too. Not saying it’s anything but..

Yes which tbh I like. I think having a HC as the offensive play caller is important in today’s offensive dominated era. You need the stability in your offense and having a great OC can just see them leaving for their next gig
Kellen Moore is gonna be HC
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 1/29/25 at 9:44 pm
Doug Nussmeir will be OC
Trump is paying back his voters in the best way
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 1/23/25 at 6:39 pm
So much of politics is bullshite but Trump is paying off the coalitions that got him elected. This is how politics should work. ask for votes, coalitions tell you what they want for their votes, you win and you fulfill those promises.
Tulsi &RFK voters got cabinet seats, libertarians got Ross freed, Arabs got a ceasefire, crypto getting reg framework. Lumlee tribe getting recognition. Business community is getting reg cuts and tax cuts. Immigration hawks are getting ICE raids and arrests.
This is how you build coalitions and remain popular.

This kid was dominant the last few years and as a big bodied Wr is the perfect compliment to Olave and Shaheed.

hes much more in line w trump policies than most think... he has a chance to become #2 on the bench behind Vance if things go well. And something people dont seem to understand is Trump really really likes Marco and listens to him, especially on central and south american issues

re: All Taylor Sheridan shows are outrageously bad….and yet I watch.
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 1/1/25 at 2:07 am
Yellowstone- started great… lost the plot. Still finished but they made some very odd choices story wise.
1883 was my favorite. Amazing show
1923 was very good and excited about new season
Lioness I’ve really enjoyed and doesn’t even really have any “Sheridan” dna in the show.
Landman, I think this could become the biggest of them all. BBT delivers epic monologues and the supporting cast is amazing.
Haven’t got a chance to watch Mayor of Kingstown or Tulsa King yet but I’ve heard good things.
Also movie wise I really liked Sicario and Hell or High Water.
And he’s got some cool stuff coming too, 6666 show, The Madison, 1944, and empire of the summer moon show…
So if you’re tired of him… sorry

We just need talent at any position. We’re years away from competing for anything meaningful and we don’t exactly have a talented or young roster. It really doesn’t matter as we’re in a rebuild. Just get somebody who will be playing at a high level and on this team in 4-5 years.
Feel like we should build around our OL, if healthy we have 2 good tackles, a great center, a decent guard,.. we need another guard. The better this unit gets it can make our whole team better.
Beyond that I pretty much agree we don’t have much to build upon,, maybe our corners. Davis and Werner but Davis is old and Werner hurt a lot.
What do you want to draft in first 3 rds
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 12/29/24 at 8:13 pm
I think our first 3 picks should be, Run stuffing DT, DE, WR. Would almost be cruel to draft anything else.
I think we can sign a pretty good starting offensive guard in free agency at a decent price.
With our first I’d love Mason Graham or Abdul Carter. With the 2nd Tre Harris would be a steal and fit well w Olave and Shaheed
With the 3rd I’d look for best DL or a safety if you really like someone

Help with camera equipment
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 12/26/24 at 8:27 pm
My mom died about a decade ago and we havent done anything with her camera equipment... she had a Nikon D300 and sigma lenses that were pretty expensive. Was looking for where the best place around Baton Rouge would be to find out what this is worth, how to possibly use it, or sell it.
Any suggestions? thanks

How upset are you about the Saints losing seasons of late?
Posted by Lsujacket66 on 12/21/24 at 12:59 am
Was curious if anyone else felt similar to me.
Im 34 and grew up a big LSU/Saints fan but the Saints were always my #1 team... and i basically never missed a game since i was about 8. We had season tickets on the 20 about 12 rows up and just remember the frustration of the Ditka/Hasslet years. I remember how much Aaron Brooks used to piss me off. but i also remember how insane the stadium was for the Hakim dropped the ball playoff win.. but then i was in 9th grade and a friend told me in Geography that the Saints just got Payton. In my delusion at first i thought he meant Peyton Manning.. but alas, i will always remember that moment because Payton brought in Drew Brees and we got Reggie Bush and it was a new dawn. I will defend Drew Brees being the best qb in the nfl to anyone and think he performed a miracle bringing a super bowl to New Orleans. We obviously are/were a pretty pathetic franchise and we shouldve done more with Brees.... but the super bowl and years of winning...
has made me appreciate that moving on from a sports god (in my mind at least) was never going to be easy and we probably arent close to turning things around and competing for super bowls.... but damn i can remember how awesome that super bowl was and how much fun watching drew brees was and that eases any frustration with our current dynamic.
