Hey, Z, uhhh ... I mean Ben, sorry I missed you guys last weekend. I knew it would be a victory, since I was NOT there. I think I am usually a bad-luck charm. And when my friend Ron comes with me, we are the Black Death! Together we have been to numerous UL games (FB, BB, & Baseball), to an LSU game and to a couple of Saints games and I don't think we've seen the first victory yet! I take it back, after watching the Cajuns fall to Stanford the first time at the 2000 CWS, we did see LSU beat Texas. There, so we are 1 - (A LOT)!
I'm not sure when I'll be able to make it back to Cajun Field this year. It is NOT from lack of desire to see the Cajuns play. It is more of a work thing. Working for the Boy Scouts, it seems weekends are almost always involved with some type of event or activity.
Elbow at full extension; light weights come next
Injured Carolina Panthers quarterback Jake Delhomme met with the media Wednesday for the first time since having Tommy John surgery on his right elbow six weeks ago today.
"I feel great," Delhomme said. "... I'm at 100 percent flexion and extension. We can actually start doing some light weights tomorrow.
Delhomme said he won't throw until at least mid-February.
"I won't rush," he said. "... Dr. (Pat) Connor told me, `Hey, from week eight until week 16, you're going to twiddle your thumbs. That's part of it. And I will not try to go and throw a ball in the backyard, because that makes absolutely no sense."
Delhomme added: "Everybody thinks you get smarter as you get older; maybe you just learn a little bit from being dumb when you're young."
Delhomme said he's getting treatment seven days a week, even on the mornings of Sunday road games. He'd like to be back before training camp.
"I'm very optimistic," he said. "Maybe I'm too optimistic, but that's just my nature."

It is pretty clear that the Panthers need real insurance at quarterback for next season. If they invest a high draft pick, or serious dollars at the spot, Jake might get screwed by the football gods.
Shocker, an article about Jake Delhomme and you two are the first ones to post anything.
Hey Panther fans, you see that big black thing up ahead of you? Its big and black and there's a gold stripe down the middle of it. Its the Saints ass. Enjoy looking at it from the bottom of the conference standings for the rest of the year.
Heres another shocker! As soon as I posted I knew it was gonna be a matter of minutes before you responded!! I dont have quite the same feelings for Carolina since Jake is down, so enjoy the rest of the year...I'll continue to search for that fountain of youth Brett Favre found in the off season!

Aw, come on...I think Z's response to my post proves its all in jest.
But, to answer your question anyway...Becasue they're not Saints fans. They're the enemy, our division rival. Why else? Besides, JD is washed up. He hasn't finished a season in two or three years. by the time he's able to come back, he'll be too old to knock off the rust.
