You’re sick of hearing about Katrina? I’m sick of still living with it and I live over Mississippi where she really hit. God knows I would NEVER wish on you what happened to me here. Don’t make cracks about something you have no idea about living through. When was the last time Tampa had a catastrophe like Katrina? I, for one, hope to God you never have to find out.

That being said, the Bucs are a good young team in a very tough division. Good young qb and good defense. We’ll see what happens this fall between the Saints and Bucs….should be fun to watch. But please quit spewing venom and quit talking about Katrina….I’m tired of hearing about the storm, tired of still living with it and I’m ready to get back to football.

1. The Bucs watched the playoffs at home, this is a fact. It doesn’t matter what they would’ve done in your fantasy world where they make the playoffs and Josh Freeman feeds you grapes in a thong. Keep your fantasies to yourself and come back to THE REAL WORLD, neo.

2.The only person I see bringing up Katrina is you.

3.The only person that will care about anything that has to do with the labor dispute and Brees’ involvement now that the season is underway, is you.

So basically all signs point to the problem being you.

The Bucs got lucky because they were flying under the radar last season. Sure, THEY DIDN’T MAKE THE PLAYOFFS, but they had a competitive team.
Other teams won’t be taking them as lightly this year and will likely be more prepared for Freeman’s ridiculous haircut this time around.

Patriots gave up their 2011 1st Rd pick, No. 28 overall.

Saints gave up their 2012 1st Rd pick, which assuming the Saints are a final four team, should be in the Nos. 28-32 range. In other words, the Saints should be pretty darn good this coming season.

In return, the “extra” compensation in the deal (beyond the swap of the two 1st Rd picks–albeit in different years), was the Saints 2d Rd pick in 2011.

In contrast, the Lions gave up substantially less to move up to get the No. 2 rated RB in Leshoure in Round 2. Basically, it worked out to a giving up a 4th Rd pick, plus switching draft positions with Seattle in Rounds 5 and 7.

Keep dreaming buddy. The Saints are going to sink that little rowboat the bucs like to clown around on. Better hope the games aren’t blacked out again this year or you might not see! HA!
