Yay! Football!

It may still be hot as hades here in the Crescent City, but it is football season too and I couldn't be more excited! The Saints did well during pre-season pulling in a 3-1 standing. Sean Payton is back in his head coach position. Rob Ryan is doing his thing with the defense. Key players are active and ready to roll. All seems right with the world...at least the world of NFL. The season opener was a home game against the biggest rival of all...the Atlanta Falcons, aka the "dirty birds". Both teams played well, but in the end the better team, the Saints, came out with the win :) I rooted them to their victory from the couch at Joseph Street! And from the couch I am cheering them on as they play the Buccaneers right now. There was an hour long weather delay due to lightening strikes in Tampa Bay, but now they are back on the field and the only thing striking in the vicinity seems to be referee flags! There have been more penalties in the first half of this game than I think I've ever seen! Currently the Saints are in the lead 10-7 but who knows...let's hope for a 2-0 start!
