Saints News

John Clayton at ESPN's reporting that the Saints are in the final negotiations for a trade that will bring John Vilma to New Orleans. John Vilma is 25 years old, won the Defensive Rookie of the Year Award in '04 and is one of maybe five elite middle linebackers born in the 1980's, that is to say, way better than Mark Simoneaux.

Profootballtalk.com, a notoriously inaccurate rumor mill also suggested that the Saints were on the top of the list to get Asante Samuel's services at corner. Asante Samuel is one of only two people ever to return two pick-sixes in a given year's palyoffs. This morning's reports however say Asante's first stop will be Philly, who are rumored to be trading their shutdown corner, Lito Sheppard.

I on the other hand am hoping the Saints take a chance on Pacman Jones, who before he got suspended for an entire year for an incident involving strippers, money-rain, a now paralyzed bouncer, and Nelly, was widely considered the best young corner (and return man) in the game. Some people might say that New Orleans would be a bad environment for Pacman, whereas I say he'd fit right in.

As happy as I am to hear that the Saints could get Vilma, their most pressing issue is obviously the dust-eating, consistently burnt Jason David. I'm pretty sure I could beat Jason David deep and I haven't ran since that time the cops saw me getting a blowjob from Jason David.

All the Fake Reggie Bush's Had the Birthday Right

If you search for Reggie Bush on facebook, it comes back with 7 of them, only one of which looks even a little authentic. Humorously, the one with the most friends (900+) has as a favorite quote:

"Off the field, I'm quiet. On the field, I'm probably the exact opposite of that. Split personality on and off the field." - Reggie Bush
I don't think he's the real deal.
Drew Brees may be for real, but his profile isn't openable.
Will Smith has the most honest page (and a very cute family.)
Roman Harper is blocked.
This group and this group appear to have different purposes, but they're basically the same.

I really like Chris Paul.
