So, it's been six weeks now since… *ahem*… THE NEW ORLEANS SAINTS WON THE SUPER BOWL! Is it too soon yet to start wondering when we're gonna get some good news for a change?

Yeah, probably too soon. Oh sure, we all knew that at best this was probably gonna be the most boring, uneventful offseason in recent memory, if not ever. Best we could really have hoped for was keeping the team intact, a few long term contracts for core players, and the draft.

Clearly, the time to panic is now. If only we had some of Desmond's huge DHARMA syringes left. Damn that little punkass Australian baby! Now we're totally screwed! Continue Reading…
