Wednesday's Random Saints Thoughts

 

  • The off-season sucks enough as it is but it's ten times worse when you're a Saints fan waiting to find out just who the heck is going to be tapped as the next scapegoat defensive coordinator. This is a huge decision that will decide the fate of this team and it's importance is keeping me on the edge of my seat. But while we've been anxiously awaiting it's been pretty boring in Who Dat Nation  I was so bored in fact that I actually searched "bored" on YouTube. Not a good idea. Among the ridiculous results that popped up was this video, which I am only sharing because it might help cure your boredom. I apologize in advance. 

 

 

  • Here is some audio for you guys to listen to. Obviously, it's from WWL's Sports Talk. The first two are Drew Brees and Ed Orgeron (remember him?) from a couple of days ago. The third one is more recent and it's an interview with Mickey Loomis. You have to jump ahead a few minutes past random chatter before they get to Loomis. 

     

  • Drew Brees' wife, Brittanny, should pop anytime now. I caught Drew on a post-game interview following the Lions game a while back and he mentioned that his son was due in January. Keep your ears open for that one.
  • Finally, I will leave you with this video. It's no secret that the New Orleans Saints official website sucks. It's slow, out-of-date and poorly organized, among other problems, and Saints fans all across the internet are always complaining. I'm not sure who made this video (IBM?) or whether or not it explains a damn thing about the suckage but at least we now have a face to which we can apply our anger. Jeff Huffman, IT manager for the New Orleans Saints. Gibbs is gone; you think we can get this guy canned next?

You've got the wrong man

Here’s the culprit:

Doug Miller
Senior Director of New Media

“Included in his daily responsibilities is the direction and operation of the club’s newly-relaunched website, NewOrleansSaints.com.”

There’s nothing wrong (so far as I know) with the Saints’ computer system; plenty of companies use blade servers, and that doesn’t impact the structure or content of the website. The problem with NewOrleansSaints.com is that the people running it don’t know how to design a site to make it function properly and look good; nor do they know how to write. So once they correct every conceivable problem, they’re golden. I don’t know why everyone’s complaining.

Fix the damn website, Doug

You think Doug Miller is the webmaster? Not bloody likely.

Jeff Huffman: Jody? Jody!! You got that website ready to go yet?
Jody Barbier: Not yet.
Jeff: Well we gotta put something out there. Just throw it together and show Doug how to do updates.
Jody: It’s gonna suck, but ok, you’re the boss.
Jeff: Priorities, boy.

There’s a bailout coming, but it’s not for you.

Thank you!

Thanks for a mention about the Brees Baby… no one seems to be reporting on the news and fans want to know! Please keep us posted!

Hey, thanks for not saying retarded. That would’ve got you flagged, buddy.
