Why the extra security?

You know who never missed a game for the Saints?
That’s right, Chad “Quatrosiete” Houser. These guys all need to get into pilates or something. We’re awash in a sea of hammy and knee injuries.

His name's Chad
as far as I’m concerned.

Maybe because of the higher security risks that have risen after they caught that new terrorist in Colorado. I think they were plotting on sporting venues and subways and stuff.
On another note , I think we need a new tackle. This has me concerned. Have no more depth there.

nice
And I thought it was fear of right wing nutters rioting over Fujita’s comments on gay marriage.
OR...
.. the stampede of perversion-supporting leftists wanting to get their picture taken with him.

Nobody mentioned the new OT
Renardo Foster was just signed to the practice squad. Jesus, the guy is HUGE – 6’7", 340 lbs. He seem to be kind of injury prone, though. Had some issues in college and then missed all of last year after an injury in the 2007 season.
If he's already injury prone
he doesn’t stand a chance staying healthy on the Saints.

heh, no I suppose not.
Well, the Saints just need to get through one more game before the bye week. No mention of Bushrod being out for several weeks, so he’ll probably be back for the Giants game. I’d still like to see another good tackle on the active roster, though. Like I mentioned elsewhere, if Strief has to play LT, they can’t use him as the extra TE in power running formations. Who knows how long it will be before Dinkens is ready?
actually...
they do that sometimes…Aikman highlighted that in a replay during the eagles game
The Easter Bunny is a savage...
three snaps in z formation
for anyone 6’7" named “Renardo”.
"It feels like a tiny prick " -Reggie Bush
Move Nicks!!
I know they can’t do it this game but if there is a chance Bushrod can’t go against the Giants they should start training Nicks at tackle during the time off and throw Nesbit back in at guard. Nesbit did a great job he just got hurt and Nicks came in and handled business.
Oh
and if Reis is our best option at long snapper no punts or field goals! Just go for the first and go for two!! We don’t need Reis blown all the way back to Morstead and block the punt for them!!
I bet Scott Fujita can sell you some.
