Remember back in August when our biggest worries as Saints fans were whether our backup quarterback was acceptable, and whether or not the Saints were going to keep the right 4th tailback on the roster? Good times.

NolaChick over at Chicks in the Huddle has suggested that the Saints drop the "Earn It" mantra in favor of "Do It For Deuce." I think that’s a fine idea, but I have different suggestion. How about: "In The Land Of The Blind, The One-Eyed Man Is King."

The 2007 Chicago Cubs are the perfect role model for the 2007 Saints. The Cubs absolutely stunk early in the season. Then a certain batshit-crazy Venezuelan pitcher punched his functionally-retarded catcher right square in the face. Then he did it several more times.

The next day, their crusty old redass manager gave the people what they had been waiting for: a ridiculously transparent preplanned "spontaneous" outburst all up in the grill of some schmuck umpire. The functionally-retarded catcher was dumped on the Saint Didacus Fathers, where he proceeded to sink their playoff hopes, and the Cubs went on a midseason tear, becoming the one-eyed man in their very own land of the blind: the NL Central. And tonight, the Cubs will participate in what? That’s right, a playoff game.
