Going Back To The Big Easy - Saints Talk

That picture was from Katrina, right?

or any attempted "joke" using Katrina and you'll be banned

I could care less, to me if other teams fans can insult our city and fans than that makes everything else fair game, even Katrina jokes. I'm a heartless prick.

That picture will always be funny in my book, the original one.  The guy probably lost his house but foudn the time to look Heinekins, how can you not laugh at that. 

People stealing ps2's after their property floated away, and the justification that they were only getting needed supplies while people are wading thru the flooded streets w/a raft and TV's on the rafts..

Back to football related issues... I notice a disturbing trend, involving Stonehands Tapeh in the offense besides blocking.  I can't be the only one who shudders everytime he gets the rock thrown to him or gets a gift carry. It doesn't happen alot, but even once a game is too much IMO. The pass he dropped by the endzone the other week could easily have popped up volleyball style and got picked. All I'm saying is it scares me and I wish they would stop attempting to use him.

He dislocated his finger nastily 5 plays before they threw it to him.  I blame that on the coach when a guy's finger is sideways why throw it to him.

The NFL Network's bottom line has Tapeh listed as questionable so he may not even play.

Right on, like I said I think Katrina jokes are fair game, I understand PE.com not wanting it on their website though.

Everything is fair game.  Everything.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Thomas Tapeh, the only fullback on Philadelphia's roster, is questionable for Saturday night's playoff game at New Orleans because of a knee injury.

Tapeh missed practice Thursday for the second straight day. Coach Andy Reid said he'll be a game-time decision. If Tapeh can't play, tailback Correll Buckhalter would take his spot at fullback.

"We've been using him in there all year, sparingly and in lead situations and other things," Reid said of Buckhalter. "We're comfortable with him in there. We'll do the same things."

Tapeh is used mainly as a blocker. He ran the ball just five times for 9 yards and had 16 catches for 85 yards and one touchdown this season.
