Assorted Gameday Notes and Pre-Game Open Thread for the Purpose of Pumping You Up
Post-Game Show
After the Saints administer a thorough beat down of the NY Jets later this afternoon, tune in to our live post-game podcast at 7pm Central and call the show to drunkenly scream about how great it is to have an undefeated football team four weeks into the season. Here is the link to the listen to the show. You can click it right now and set a reminder so you don't forget. And assuming you're man enough to call the show and chat with us, the call-in number is (347) 215-8037.
Follow My Twitter Updates
I wanted to try something new for the game today. When the open game thread gets posted at 2pm today, it will include a small Twitter widget that is directly linked to CSC's Twitter account directly below the usual game information table. Since I sit directly behind the Saints bench and can see everything that's happening on their sideline, I thought I would give live Twitter updates on anything pertinent or interesting I see. So you will definitely want to be checking that widget (or my Twitter account) frequently during the game.
This thread should be considered open for all discussion about anything seen or heard here in this post and also for all early game/pre-game chatter. The official open game thread will open at 2pm Central.
Make the jump for tons links, video, audio and the newest Saints-related Who Dat song.
Don't kid yourselves, Who Dats. This is a big game.

this isn't a division game
so it doesn’t determine the rest of the season. if it were the the Atlanta tweety birds then yes.
It's about the direction for the rest of the season.
We are going against another undefeated team that has become the darling of their conference. They have a HUGE fan base and are highly touted everywhere. If the situation were the same with another team, say the Chiefs, this game would not be getting all the media attention it has this week. How the Saints respond to this game will definitely say much about the direction the team is headed. That is not to say a loss would equal a bad direction, but that our response to the Jets on the field and to the outcome of the game, whatever that is, will tell us a lot about how high we fans should set our hopes.
If we could just sythesize life in a laboratory, we could prove that the creation of life requires no intelligence.

I'm so jealous

WHO DAT
I agree
I am on my way to watch the game with other saints fanatics, but it sure would be nice to be walking into the dome. For you guys who are going:

I feel your pain
I wanted to go to the game but had a wedding this weekend. But I will get to watch it on TV instead of my laptop.

I'm a Believer
Anyone remember that Saints song from ’87? I wish I could find it.
Before you pick your Super Bowl winner ask yourself this: Can you name an offense that can keep pace with the Saints?- Jerome Bettis
Hornets
Not sure if you guys know this but the Hornets will be out in full force to watch the game. Nice show of support from the other NO Team.
I agree
Not a huge basketball fan but I can recall seeing Reggie at a couple of the Hornets games last year. My oldest boy went to a Hornets game and called me to tell me he was sitting right behind Deuce. Support between the teams is great.
Classy move from the Hornets!!!
Can’t wait to see how it continues through the rest of the season. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of something like this happening before….
