The LA Rams and their powerful D took on the Raiders and their mighty D. It went back and forth, up and down between the two teams for nearly 60 minutes. In the end the Rams finished off the Raiders with a punishing final blow. The blow left the Raiders gasping for air and in shock as the Rams took to their knees in the final moments of the physical matchup. A LGBTQ parade has been scheduled to honor the victors.
There was a unique smell that filled the air in the New Orleans this past week. Imagine the smell of a Port-o-Potty combined with the aroma of a pile of rotten banana peels, now add in the smell of VICTORY. The delightful scent of the city air brought the residents to their front porches and city streets to consume their boudin, sweet tea and crack cocaine. One local panhandler even went as far to say that the Saints victory gave him hope and inspiration to push the physical limits of his body to add even more fentanyl to his already robust dose of meth. The Saints are a true inspiration to all!
When traveling from Texas to New Orleans, a simple way to find New Orleans without using a map or GPS is to just follow the smell of shit to the east, then head south until you step in shit. You are then in N.O. Now, as promised, the Joke of the Day: 6 combined fumbles in the ATL/NO games, all by the quarterbacks. The Falcons came out the victor in a game that was not as close as the score indicated. 31-24. Obscenities and insults yelled from the Falcons fan base certainly rattled Saints players, not the actual context of the words spoken, but the clarity and obvious basic grasp of the English language is what threw them off.
On Sunday, for a brief 8 minute window of time, liquor store robberies, muggings and voodoo spells ceased as a way to celebrate the Saints win over the Browns of Cleveland. The seven Cleveland Brown in attendance (despite winning tickets via a Bum Fight competition) we're anxious to get back on the Greyhound bus back to Cleveland stating, "how do these people live in a city that smells like a racoons anus". The Who Dat Nation had never heard such a compliment. A stabbing of a random bystander took place to honor the occasion.
Crime, poverty and the stench of raw sewage is what New Orleans is famous for. Beads, and French cuisine can only distract you from the fact that you reside in the "Taint of the South" for so long. Add the Saints week 1 victory over the Bucs as another temporary relief. Come monday morning though it's back to the welfare line and soup kitchen for the Who Dat Nation. A victory week 2 versus the Browns may inspire some residents to seek gainful employment. Stay tuned!
