Gonna be fun educating Mr Newton today. May not be many more opportunities to do so
I noticed the network

Chose to go to commercial break instead of the National Anthem. Moment of silence for Mr Davis, then straight to Commercial while the NA was sung.I only know, because I listen to the Homers on the radio

From the 4? Saints have not been exceptional from the Red Zone this year and it got them beat against GB
Newton shows what a great arm he has

Submitted by Boudin on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 2:33pm.
When the Panthers call a TO with 2 seconds left allowing the Saints to kick a FG? Weird
Saints up 20-13
Saints drive to the Red Zone again
Submitted by Boudin on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 2:55pm.
But settle on another FGto start the 2nd half
Saints up 23-13
As with so many NFL games this year
Submitted by Boudin on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 3:14pm.
It seems the Refs have picked a side, calling fouls where there are none, and ignoring the ones that were committed. Panthers take advantage for a TD.
BTW Shockey is taunting constantly, considering what we have seen so far this year, I am little surprised they haven't thrown a flag for that. But considering the officiating so far, maybe not.
Saints up 23-20
Drew throws a pick
Submitted by Boudin on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 3:33pm.
Panthers take advantage and the lead.
23-27
Unfortunately, the refs have taken this game over.
Drew composes a masterful drive
Submitted by Boudin on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 4:00pm.
for a TD with :50 left
Saints back up 30-27
Panthers have 3 TO left and Cam Newton
Saints hold on to Win
Submitted by Boudin on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 4:21pm.
This Panthers team will be a force to recon with shortly. Seems Shockey was the first one off the field. If your a Panthers fan, I am warning you, Shockey will cost you yards in penalties, when he is healthy. Thats why he isnt here anymore.
The refs really stunk this game up in the 2nd half, nonetheless,
Saints win 30-27
Geaux Saints!

Damn SCam! LOL! Changin' yer stripes didn't help did it. From cat to kitteh.
GEAUX SAINTS!
I said the heck the Panthers
Submitted by ricklail on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 4:27pm.
I said the heck the Panthers when they drafted sCAM. I was hoping the game would come down to a John Kasey field goal to win it. It serves the Panthers right because they got rid of Kasey. The Saints won and that is all that matters. Most NFL teams don't mind sCAM throwing the ball around the field as long as they are not winning. I figure pretty soom most NFL defensive coordinators will have him figured out. They only had 4 games worth of films to watch. They'll figure out his tendensies and he'll be slowed down and even stopoped. So with all that said GO FALCONS.
Dem Dirty Birds are looking pretty good

Got the turn-over, now looking to go up by double digits
Holy cow

Falcons up 14-0 on the vaunted Packers.
Where's Dave??? His Falcons
Submitted by killa37 on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 9:12pm.
Where's Dave??? His Falcons are taking it to my long-time favorites, the Packers - although I'm a Niner fan also - depending on how they're doing. I have to admit to getting a little sick of Fav-reh in the later years..........but I'm liking the current team. I'm also a Redskin fan, because of one of my sons - but they haven't been worth rooting for in years........maybe this year.
Heh, my Falcons are up two TD's on the World Champions already

GO FALCONS!

Rodgers is looking a little
Submitted by killa37 on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 9:40pm.
Rodgers is looking a little discombobulated..............and there's a rookie running back for the Pack from Hawaii!!! A running back from Hawaii???? I didn't know we had any!!!
Sure there was Killa
Submitted by Rukus on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 10:29pm.
He'd catch the ball and run down field, then he'd come 'runnin' back'. Sheesh!
Here come the Pack
Submitted by Boudin on Sun, 10/09/2011 - 10:33pm.
Nice job of the Falcon to stop the 2pts.
GB 15-14
