A little sumpin' sumpin' from ASaint

Ugh..Hmm. I'd like to start off by saying that I am popping my fanpost cherry with this one guys.

First off my initial inspirstion. Yasisnskas over at ESPN qouted Will Smith as saying the following,

"We're a lot faster and a lot smarter," defensive end Will Smith said. "That's a different feel than last year."

(Hey Saintsational Dave, like my box?)

FINALLY!!! Somebody on the defense admits we were slow and dumb! AMEN!

     But know I will continue with the post, instead of doing some on-line classing that is due tonight, but I just can't focus until I let a little of this excitment go. I am the proud father of an addorable 2 year old little girl. I know proud. And I'll be damned if that's not the word that best describe's today's performance. Also proud of the fact that my little terror loves to run around and say "FOOBALL", but she wen't apeshit when scored the first touchdown. Largely in part, OK, entirely because I jumped off the couch and literally hit the fan. Bottom line...she digs it.   

     Pierre doing what he does, and got a chance to do it. I would have loved one to break, but over 5 ypc. Can't complain. Reggie "Just f-in run you fast SOB, and you wouldn't get tackled" Bush, did just that and put one to the two yard line, IN THE ENDZONE FOR A TOUCHDOWN! Bress was solid, got rocked a few too many times if you ask me, we need to get on that. I just hope it's because it was Tampa, and they do that to us even when no one else does. Devry, really, I mean c'mon, just when my Tiger lovin' homer ass is actually giving up on you, and ready to say adios. I just don't know what  to say. I sincerely appreciate it, becuase if you would have dropped it.......Anyone ever hear about the Argentinian Goalkeeper?

     Porter. Ellis. Gay. Vilma. Without those guys on the field today, you KNOW what our defense is, it's OK....I'l wait. Oh, What's that, Will says he does, slow and dumb. Ladies and gentleman, my favorite of the day, Charles Grant! Applause and confetti, celebration commences (I'm sure he wouldn't mind a couple of strippers and a turkey leg or two either). Lots of pressure, lots of sticky coverage from Porter and Gay. Although Glenn was getting on my nerves. Even in preseason, I haven't been a huge fan. I saw him being an ass during a preseason game, shoved some dude in the face, rubbed me the wrong way. Performance did get better at the end of camp though. Tackling was suspect, and that dink and dunk game is absolutely nerve wrecking, ESPECIALLY with poor tackling. They turned 3 to 4 into 7 to 9 way too much.

       I think that getting off to a good start was key to the outcome of this season. They had to know that all the hard work they put in this offseason would pay off. After last years early season slump, 1-0 is perfect.
