Skeptical of rotoworld report that Jammal Brown will be traded in the offseason |
Rotoworld is awesome |
||
|
May 3 |
Objection to rotoworld opinion (Jenkins stays at corner) after Sharper's signing for 2010 |
Depends on Sharper making the team. I agree that Jenkins moves to S as soon as Sharper is off the roster. He's on PUP for 6 weeks. Week 7 resolves this: Cut, benched, or starting at FS. |
||
|
May 6 |
Objection to Sharper's contract: $2M if he makes 53 man roster, wk 1 |
I love Frenchie. Frenchie don't love Sharper. |
||
|
August 4 |
Malcolm Jenkins will start 13+ games at FS |
1 down, 12 to go |
||
|
June 3 |
Sharper won't start in game 1 |
Sharper's not too old to prove a point |
When you get old, it takes longer to prove points. |
|

May 4 |
PJ Hill gets picked off the waiver wire and we have to have a party |
I was a fan of Mike Bell. PJ Hill, you're no Mike Bell. |
PJ Hill placed on IR on Aug 23 after being outplayed by Tusk all preseason, mercifully ending the PJ Hill era |
|
|
June 16 |
Not too worried about losing Bell. (Hans: PJ Hill not a replacement) |
Split Bell's carries between all RB's: How is that better than 2009?? It's not. Let's get Ladell Betts!! Um...Ok then, we've got TUSK! |
||
|
July 11 |
Breakout year for PhotoOp, 4 yds/carry, leaves as free agent 2011 |
Kind of a long term issue, like PhotoOp himself |
Didn't take that long. PhotoOp placed himself on season and career ending IR on Aug 14 |
|
|
June 11 |
CP thinks PT and Reggie both gone in 2011 |
Outrageous at first, now looking prophetic |
||
|
Apr 25, May 19 |
CP favors Julius Jones as a Saint |
RB3 in a crappy backfield only because no one else is available. Oops, not anymore. Hey, he's available! |
||
|
May 24 |
CP thinks AP1 (former Bear Adrian Peterson) is as good as Mike Bell |
I doubt that AP1 is on an NFL roster in 2010, let alone on the Saints'. |
AP1 lasted 5 days on the Seahawks, one of the weakest RBBC teams in the NFL |
|
|
May 14 |
Condemned Ricky Williams draft day trade, applauded Tebow draft day trade |
As if Tebow had more potential than Ricky. As if. |
||
|
May 19 July 7 July 15 |
Carolina Panthers are not in steep decline in 2010 |
Lame duck coach: Running game won't help that 12-4? Child, please |
||
|
May 22 |
Favre leads team to SB 45 win starting with a win over the Saints on Sep 9 |
Something about wearing Favre's jersey for 3 months if the Saints lose. Not too worried about it. |
||
|
June 28 July 19 July 20 |
Matt Ryan is a middle of the pack QB |
|||
|
May 23 |
Harry Coleman makes the team |
Who in the hell is Harry Coleman? LSU? LSU?? |
||
|
June 28 |
Falcons more likely to have losing record than Panters |
I just can't see this happening. |

Chargers win the AFC west in 2010 |
Defense wins championships. And their defense sucks. |

Questions about Mike Martz's ability to improve Jay Cutler's performance |
If anyone had mentioned his poor pass blocking, I'd concede this right now. |

July 8 July 19 |
Saints will finish as 3rd seed in NFC in 2010 |
New baby's diaper fumes compel Jeremy to join the madness |

Believes Payton was addicted to Vicodin and Loomis aided cover-up |
Forty Creek fueled raving, but not yet retracted; waiting to be served libel suit papers |

July 20 |
2010 Saints running game will fail, causing team to collapse |
Probably a Steelers fan; I didn't ask |
||
|
July 30 |
It's a big IF concerning Malcolm Jenkins making the team this year |
Either absinthe or mushrooms, root cause of this outburst is still undetermined. |
I like Hans' point about the meth. |
|
|
August 24 |
Saints will cut either Hartely (sic) or Morstead. Unless, one of them can double as a tight end or something. |
I was going to put Orly Taitz on this list too, but I decided to draw the line at deucifer. |
Didn't happen. Did I need to type this? |
|
|
August 24 |
Rookie Matt Tennant will be the starting center by midseason |
Goodwin's contract is up after this year. He'd have to really suck to lose his job before then. |
||
|
September 4 |
Roethlisberger will end up in jail |
Could be rape, could be DUI. I like my odds. |

Dems will lose the House this fall |
Phil's a big bleeding heart liberal. |

Those Damn Diaper Fumes
Man are they bad!
"I can eat oreos faster than him" Scott Fujita's take on Payton Manning SB44
aw, man
I don’t care who ends up being right and who ends up being wrong, it was hilarious to read that and remember the discussion threads.
Good work, Stu. I commend the effort, laud the result, and I can’t wait for the next installment.
Did this exercise help with your rage/ulcers/stroke issues?
And what, no Lonesome Rhodes mention?
It's gonna be a great year.
I stand by my statement. Know what the difference between Jay Cutler and Kurt Warner is? Warner was better at reading defenses, and was smarter with the football than Cutler is. Cutler is risky, but he rarely gets rewarded for that. Warner played smart football.
"Here's the funny thing. Last night, I couldn't sleep too well. I called my dad (Bill) at 2:15 in the morning, and told him I had a feeling I was going to hit the game-winner from 42 yards on the right hash. I think I was two yards off."- Garrett Hartley
all true
And you didn’t mention the pass blocking. Warner had some pretty terrible years too, when he had little protection.
Ain’t it hard when you discover that he really wasn’t where it’s at
After he took from you everything he could steal, how does it feel?
Regarding Malcolm Jenkins
Don’t remember the day, don’t remember the state of mind. Can only assume the “big if” concept was meant to be irony (“yeah, like that’s a big if”) that didn’t make the team. Otherwise, I must have been on meth. Or something. I hope I enjoyed it.
It was worth the wait.
Still can't believe the Jenkins thing isn't resolved.
Rotoworld said on May 3rd that he would remain at corner and I said “not so fast” because I believed he could still be moved to safety despite Sharper being resigned. He’s clearly a FS now. I may have guesstimated wrong about J. Brown, but not about this. I feel like I’m in a Twilight Zone episode. :)

So what you are saying is that rotoworld was wrong?
This wold completly contradict the accountability list.

by jeremysherwin on Sep 5, 2010 6:21 PM CDT up reply actions
Satch, you're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas... you've just crossed over...
It all hinged on Sharper’s health. If he was healthy for game 1, Jenkins would be a nickel back. No way would Jenkins start at FS and a healthy Sharper would be backing him up on the bench.
Ain’t it hard when you discover that he really wasn’t where it’s at
After he took from you everything he could steal, how does it feel?
Guess we'll never know...
Oh wait, we just might comes Week 6.
Since he already lost a step, his best shape, after that knee surgery, probably means he lost another one…
Repeat? Under construction...
Never said he would beat out a healthy Sharper for the FS job
My point was he could still get moved to FS this year, learn from Sharper and back him up, and then eventually take over the job. Even if Sharper were healthy throughout camp, I think they still would have started grooming him to play at FS. Here’s where we discussed this. My “Not so fast, Rotoworld” comment is below:
to Rotoworld: not so fast
I think they could still move Jenkins to FS, since they drafted P-Rob, who seems most suited for CB. Jenkins will be a back-up this year at either position. Why not let him learn from Sharper while he can? Most of the NFL world seems to think he’d be a great free safety as opposed to being a mediocre to good CB.
by David “Satch” Kelly on May 3, 2010 3:09 PM MDT
Where do I say Jenkins will start at FS this year? I don’t see it. I was just disagreeing with Rotoworld that Jenkins would stay at CB this year. Satch 1, Rotoworld 0. I still love the Roto, BTW. And, I still love me some stujo even though we seem to be remembering May 3rd a little differently. I call for an appeal to the ruling. :)

Was never an English major. Only had 12 hours of English in college, but I’ve long appreciated plays on words and various quotations. IMO between Shakespeare, Mark Twain, Ben Franklin, and the Bible, you got enough good quotes to last a lifetime. Maybe I need to remind myself to cast not pearls before swine (not that there’s anything wrong with swine).
"Dang! The Saints won the Super Bowl!" - my wife, Meso "Happy" Hu Dat.
That Vicodin stuff won't just go away by magic.
Even if I hope I’m wrong, Payton seems to have a bit of an addictive side. But I’ll scream conspiracy if we are to hear anything about it just before Thursday.

Superbowl bound!!!...I know! do you?! Go Saints!!
I've been sayin' somethin' crazy since last offseason...
…and Stu just ignores me…guess I’m invisible.
Of course, since Arnoux went on IR before training camp last year, that shut me down for last year – this year however, he’s on the roster.
Before mid-season, he will be the starting WLB.
Said it AGAIN, wonder if he’ll call me on it! ;-)

Unfortunately for you, at this point there’s actually a fairly good chance that might come true. He probably won’t bite. You’ll have to give him something that A) you “know” is more likely than it sounds because B) it’s against “conventional wisdom”.
Of course, then you could end up being wrong. But if you really want on the list, that’s the way to go.
I don't have a problem with Arnoux
rotoworld.com:
Stanley Arnoux-LB- Saints Sep. 5 – 11:09 am et According to Brad Biggs of the National Football Post, Saints LB Stanley Arnoux is an “ideal fit at weak side.” With WLB Jonathan Casillas placed on injured reserve Saturday, the defending champions need Arnoux to play a predominant role on the defense. If the team chooses to keep Scott Shanle on the strong side, Arnoux and Jo-Lunn Dunbar will compete for playing time on the weak side.
If you want to get on the list, tell me how Houshmandzadeh is going to light up the Saints on Dec 19. Something like that. Or go on about how the Canfield deal was a mistake, he’ll be starting for the Wikings in 2011. You know, like Deucifer does.
Ain’t it hard when you discover that he really wasn’t where it’s at
After he took from you everything he could steal, how does it feel?
Houshmandzadeh will light up the Saints
He’ll be so effective that Payton will decide he must have this player, and will trade Colston and Bush for him. We’ll scream bloody murder, and then Payton will look like a genius when Houshmandzadeh wins three consecutive Super Bowl MVP awards. He’ll retire a Saint, enter the Hall of Fame with Drew, and be so popular that he’ll be elected mayor of New Orleans. Later, he’ll enter into a conspiracy with the Mexicans and Chinese to secede from the US and set up an independent nation in the Mississippi valley, extending from the delta all the way to St. Louis. After a bitterly contested war, President Sheryl Crow will sign an armistice granting independence to the Republic of Housh. The official religion will be Islam, and all those under 16 years old will now be 16 years old.
I’m sorry, that’s the best I can do.
It was worth the wait.

I hate it when your psychiatrist gives you homework
but this excercise will help fight those deamons. But, be careful. If this gets in the wrong hands, they might give you one of those jackets that makes you hung yourself.
Two Dat!!!
I didn’t make it before when I was all against Ramsey, but I was right, he didn’t make the team. All I did was complain about picking him up. I guess I would have made the ACC index if I had said he is a washed up QB that no one has a real interest in and the only reason why PayLoo picked him up was to light a fire under Chase’s butt. He’s gonna be gone by the time the 53 man roster is out. I think that might have put me on the index, but alas and alack, never made it…

I am very suprised you have not hammered all of the LSU fans in regards to all the hype surrounding Woods.
In addition you have been pretty quiet on the all the Tebow lovers as of late.

Ahem,
from an LSU fan (just don’t get me started on Les Miles)
I would think he might beat out Al Woods

I feel kind of bad for Woods, and his agent. I hope he improves his work ethic so he can fully realize his potential. LSU!
As for Tebow, I’m waiting for him to do something remarkable, beyond getting a haircut. I think he’s QB2 now though, so maybe he’ll see some playing time this year.
Ain’t it hard when you discover that he really wasn’t where it’s at

He did do one thing remarkable. He got hurt in a preseason game. I don’t think he ever did that in college, did he? So it’s something new at least.
You never seen this?
you know, when you want something, and nobody can stop you from taking it, you just take it, right? I like that, but can you take it?
And in his next game, he still beat LSU. GRRRRRRR

I recall
it wasn’t Tebow that held LSU to 3 points.
you know, when you want something, and nobody can stop you from taking it, you just take it, right? I like that, but can you take it?
What I mean
is he didn’t live up to my turnover expectations like I had hoped he would. He hung in there and played that game. He is a tough customer.
