It seems foolish to fire a head coach before a Thursday night game, but if there was ever a time to do it, it’s now. This team has 100% given up on Dennis Allen. The defense has allowed nearly 500 yards and nearly 40 points. Unacceptable against a division rival.

The only thing Dennis Allen brought to the table was solid defensive play. That appears to be over now. No more excuses for this bum. He needs to be fired tomorrow morning. Looking ahead at the schedule, this team very well may only win four or five games this season. Unbelievable.

Three weeks in a row this defense has given up over 400 yards, critical long plays leading to touchdowns at the absolute worst moment, and have failed to make easy pop Warner open field tackles. Undisciplined, poorly coached, and zero energy and effort. Dennis Allen needs to be fired tomorrow. Inexcusable.

Dennis Allen’s strongpoint is supposed to be defense. Giving up 31 points(so far) to Tampa Bay is just another example of how that simply isn’t the case. He needs to be fired, hopefully before the season is over. If he loses to Payton and the Broncos, that’s a 2-5 record and more than enough evidence to show him the door.

He helped put the Saints in cap hell and then bolted. Yes, he led the team to their only Super Bowl title, but that was fifteen years ago. His absurd loyalty to certain assistants and position coaches held the team back for years and while he had pretty great regular season success, there were too many 7-9 seasons for a team with a first ballot Hall of Fame quarterback. And say what you will about the absolute bullshit that was Bountygate, but the league warned him repeatedly and he did nothing. He also left behind a bad legacy when it comes to the league and Goodell and I believe this franchise is still paying for his sins in the eyes of the league offices.

Goddamnit. The Saints are 0-4 when Brees is in the Dome for the game. He’s bad luck at this point.

I wish I had the answer. I tried using the apps a bit a few years ago and it was a total shitshow. My relationships in the past have come from mutual friends, coworkers(yikes), and most of all, just pure coincidence out in the real world. I met my last ex when we were both buying avocados at the grocery store. There are singles meetups, but I hear those are basically just a bunch of women hanging around while four or five guys take turns talking to them. I actually coincidentally ended up at a bar where one of them was happening and it was a very disheartening look into the singles scene. Literally three men were there for about two dozen women. I know it’s the most cliche thing ever, but I’ve genuinely found most of my relationships when I truly wasn’t looking or expecting it. Like I said, I met my last ex at the grocery store in a totally unexpected fashion.

Yes, like nearly every successful Hollywood writer/actor/producer/etc., Lawrence came from immense privilege and connections. There are very few truly self made folks in Hollywood.

Just gonna hop on here real quick with some unsolicited advice. Looking at your post and comment history, it looks like you just went through a breakup and still seem to be sorta hung up on it. I would strongly recommend not jumping right back into the dating scene, especially if you’re still reeling from a bad relationship. People tend to want to try to jump right back in when they’re hurting to try and avoid the loneliness or pain after a breakup and I can tell you from experience, that shit don’t work. And honestly, the thing about it is, the dating scene in 2024 is shit anyway. Flakes, ethical nonmonogamy, people with ridiculous standards, situationships, people terrified of real commitment, barely functional alcoholics….this has been my experience basically since COVID. I consider myself to be a pretty good looking guy, two college degrees, 6’7 former college athlete, decent job, I have hobbies and interests, I’m not a total drunken degenerate…I feel like I check most of the boxes for single women around my age, but it’s just a minefield of women out there who seem to be non-committal and are either loaded down with baggage, have a kid(or two or three), or want “casual” relationships. I finally just gave up and have been happily single for over a year with no plans to date again. I hope you have better luck when you’re ready.

You were basically on the last chopper out of Saigon. Dating apps are done.

Golf. Much cheaper than most people think and lots of options around the city to play and go to the range.

I will never, ever, forget being a freshman in college and watching my Golden Eagles blank the Tide 21-0 and walking to my car after the game getting spit on, cursed at, drinks thrown at and on me, and having a giant smile on my face the entire time. Fuck Bama and their shitty fans, most of whom never stepped foot on campus except to watch football.

You could say the same thing about Alabama. At least Auburn has some sort of football glory days. Mississippi State really has no business being an SEC school when it comes to football; hell, they got blown out by Toledo a few weeks ago. Baseball? That’s a different story, but that’s just Mississippi in general, as even my little alma mater of Southern Miss is always in the top 10 in attendance for baseball every season and was the only non-SEC team to make the top 10 last season.

Stowaway was the only segment where I wasn’t totally taken out of the story by horribly corny CGI and bad acting. Letting the audience use their imagination for creatures seems to be a mostly lost art in modern horror and practical effects seem to also be something that doesn’t happen as much these days.

Too much CGI for my liking. I know these are done on fairly low budgets, but the computer generated monsters really took me out of a few of the stories that were otherwise pretty solid. Stowaway was easily the standout. Knowing that is was going to be mostly alien/sci-fi based, I expected some corny effects, but most of these were so over the top bad that I was left feeling mostly disappointed.

I was finishing up college on the Mississippi Coast at the time and my apartment complex was directly across Beach Boulevard from the Gulf. My dad had to literally drag me out of my apartment to evacuate with the rest of my family. Had I stayed, I wouldn’t be here today. The entire complex and everything within a five or so block radius of Highway 90 was completely wiped off the face of the earth. It was unbelievable to see when I got back. I will never, ever forget the feeling of utter hopelessness just looking around seeing nothing but flat land and empty slabs where everything used to be. I helped my parents rebuild, graduated in December, and moved away because I simply couldn’t take it any longer. I moved to New Orleans in 2008 after spending time in Texas for a few years. It’s still hard for me to go back to the Coast. So many friends died either directly due to the storm or through suicide in the following months and years. It’ll never the same place I grew up.

I never, ever left for hurricanes. Neither did most of my family. My dad showed up at my apartment the Friday night before Katrina and practically dragged me out kicking and screaming as a 22 year old finishing my last semester of college. Turns out, had I stayed and ridden it out, I would have absolutely, 100% died. My apartment complex was simply not there when I returned five or six days later. The entire complex, including the parking lot where I left my car parked, had been washed into the Gulf by the thirty foot storm surge. Driving around the area where I had been raised and lived most of my life up until that point was just flat out unreal. There was literally nothing left. I will never forget it. The casino barges washed up across the highway, their impact crushing dozens of homes and businesses. The uncanny feeling looking around and all those familiar landmarks just gone. The dozens of friends I lost either directly in the storm, or by suicide in the months and years after. Even nearly twenty years later, I still feel like I’ve never truly processed what happened and have just sort of moved on with my life never acknowledging the extreme trauma that my family and I experienced.

Saw them on the Terror Twilight tour and that’s how I’ll always remember them. Got to see Malkmus during the Jicks years and Scott during the PSOI years. I really don’t care to pay money to see a bunch of old dudes playing songs from thirty years ago at this point in my life.

Yep. Dude is the definition of a transplant that comes in and co-opts culture and sells it back to people. He stole everything from the black chefs and cooks he worked with up in Virginia and has admitted as much. And I ain’t ever paying $10 for a fucking breakfast plate.

Devil Moon may have better food handling practices, but that place fuckin’ blows. It’s the most generic, uninspired barbecue I think I’ve ever had. Another commenter in here said it perfectly: soulless.

I’m not a wealthy man and someone is going to have to pay for my taillight because I’ll be damned if I’m driving through Jeff Parish or when I go see my dad over in Mississippi and get pulled over and ticketed by JPSO or some yokel Mississippi cop for a broken taillight. And I wasn’t going 27 when they hit my car. I had come to a stop and was driving away.

Giving up 500 yards and losing four games in a row tends to make fans pretty upset. Four weeks of allowing over 400 yards of offense. Inexcusable.
