Okay guys, I am stateside yet again. I am in Houston awaiting my flight to New Orleans in about 10 minutes or so.

Of course we have a bye week coming up so I will have plenty of time to discuss everything this week, answer any questions you may have about my trip and just relax a bit as we gear up for part deux of the 2008 Saints season. I encourage you guys to come up with ideas on what you would like to see the next two weeks. I was thinking about coming up with awards categories and letting you guys vote on them. What do you think?

On another note I have so incredibly exciting news about Canal Street Chronicles and SB Nation on the whole. SB Nation is about to take it to the next level! Please read this article from the Sports Business Journal!! This is a big...freakin'...deal! I can only imagine this means so much more greatness for all of you guys here at Canal Street Chronicles. I would also like to take this time to thank everyone who has already found a home here and I greatly look forward to see how far we can take this. Between this great news and my amazing trip to London, I am feeling very good about everything I have been doing and I cannot wait for the future. Unfortunately, I have to.
