Bradley Handwerger: October 2009 Archives
The Saints have hit the magical 6-0 mark for only the second time in franchise history. One more win ties the club-best start from 1991. New Orleans has won games by 18, 26, 20, 14, 21 and 12 points, or an 18.5 point per game average.
We've hit the final day of the work week and that means only one thing - we're one day closer to kick off. But because the Saints play the Falcons on Monday night, there's an extra 24-hour period to wait. I know. Boo! But take in the Hornets game tonight, go trick-or-treating Saturday and rest Sunday. Monday is going to be a long, long, exciting day. But until then, I've done my normal look-through of the entire Interweb and fo... Hello there friends. Hope you have your toboggan on and some gloves. I've brought the marshmallow, graham crackers and chocolate. Who's ready for a fireside chat? ...
Welcome back EOSB fan. We love that you spend a little part of your day here with us. A little less to link to today as the Saints were off yesterday. But that doesn't mean the verbage isn't titillating or juicy. Lots of talk about going undefeated. Blah blah blah. More on that later. But for now, pick up a tasty plate of beignets and fill a heavy mug with chicory.
Hello loyal EOSB readers. Welcome back to another fine edition of Saints Linkage, where we bring you the words and all you have to do is click on the hyperlink. Pretty easy, huh? Lots to go on this lovely Wednesday. The Saints have today off so there's no access for the media. That doesn't mean we won't be writing things for y'all to read. Plenty out there today. If you're not in a beignet mood today, maybe a scone will do. Or ...
EOSB readers must be in delirium these days. Not only are the Saints playing well, they're kind of the talk of the NFL world right now. After wondering where the national media was for the first few weeks, it seems pretty much everyone is on board the bandwagon now. But y'all were on it first. You can always say that. Anyway, there's still lots to read about today. Sean Payton and the players were off on Monday, so today is th... It's Monday morning and I'm pretty sure you're still elated about what transpired down in Miami on Sunday. Um, yeah. that was sort of ridiculous. I think people might just start believing now. How can you not? Keep enjoying this one, folks. Tons of reading out there today. Here you go. Comments are encouraged, discussion is warranted. ...
It's here. We're finally at the weekend. Sort of. We've still got the work day to get through, so the EOSB is glad you welcomed us into your cubicle for education today. Lots out there to read.

As always, comments are welcome and discussion is warran...
For only the third time in franchise history, the Saints have reached 5-0, winning games by an average of 19.8 points per game (18, 26, 20, 14, 21). You're wondering how we got to this point. What follows are some notes and numbers that put the Saints in this position. Hello there friends. Hope you have your toboggan on and some gloves. I've brought the marshmallow, graham crackers and chocolate. Who's ready for a fireside chat? ...
It's late October Thursday and it's hot and humid outside. So you want to stay inside and stay cooled down. What are you to do? You click on the EOSB's Saints Linkage, lean back in your chair and read all about New Orleans' National Football League franchise. As always, comments are welcome and discussion is warranted. ...
We've hit the middle of the work week here in New Orleans and that means only one thing: The Saints get back to practice today. We'll find out more about Scott Fujita strained calf injury. But until this afternoon when we talk with coaches and players, there's tons of words and sentences written about the Saints that I'm sure you EOSB faithful would love to read. Without further ado, the beignets are in the fryer and the chicor...
It's another fine day in the New Orleans metropolitan area, where parishes have shown themselves to be of a higher quality than boroughs. But if you can't get outside, here's some Saints verbage to take your mind off another (painful) day of work. It's lunchtime in the Crescent City. Pick up your roast beef po boy and a Barq's and let's get to reading. As always, comments are welcomed, discussion is warranted. <...
It's a late start here at the EOSB. Lots of training going on today. We're switching to a new publishing system. It'll be more user friendly. Do you care about that? Not really. But it will affect you. The site will change in the coming weeks and things might look a little different. Don't be afraid, though. The Saints are still playing well. Comments are welcomed, discussion is warranted. Here's our look at numbers of...
So, have you woken from your Saints-induced coma of euphoria yet? Figured out that yesterday was real and the Saints actually are 5-0 and yet to trail? Are you itching on this Monday to read everything you can about the Saints? Fear not. After a training session for something at work put me behind a wee bit, we're back on schedule and here's your Saints Linkage. Grab a couple of beignets and a big mug o' chicory. This one's a b... Hello there, friends. Welcome to another fine edition of the EOSB chat. Join me today as we discuss the noon Saints-Giants game. ...
Friday has arrived. We're closing in on this season's biggest game with the 5-0 Giants coming to New Orleans to play the 4-0 Saints. The only thing hotter than that is Saints Linkage. Plenty of words have been written about this game. Plenty more will be written. But here's a look at what's on the interweb on this fine Friday. As always, comments are encouraged, discussion is warranted. Keep it clean, New Orleans! ...
Thanks to the legion of EOSB followers who participated tonight. Enjoy the evening and have a swell weekend. ...
New Orleans has arrived to 4-0 for only the third time in franchise history, winning games by 18, 26, 20 and 14 points. Only in 1991 and 1993 did the Saints get to 5-0. But how'd it get to this point? Let's look at some of how it all happened as we peer into the future at the Giants game on Sunday. This is your non-political web hit for the day. Obama didn't visit the Saints. They were too busy preparing for the Giants....
The EOSB welcomes you back to another tasty version of Saints Linkage, with meaty verbs and succulent sentences written about the Saints. The EOSB, first off, would like to give a shout-out to HABOTN, where good friend Jay Tate fosters an environment we'd like to replicate over here in New Orleans. Let me know if you'd like more features similar to what Mr. Tate gives out to his re...
Thanks to guest linker Tom Planchet for a job well done on Tuesday. Car issues kept me running around town and he filled in admirably. It's Giants week. They're 5-0. The Saints are 4-0. So, yeah, it's pretty big. How do I know this? ESPN has sent some of its people down here to report. Welcome to the national radar, New Orleans. Your fans have been clamoring for it for the past month. Grab your beignets and chicory, pull up a c...
Yep, it's a big week here at Saints Camp. With hometown hero Eli Manning and his New York Giants coming to town, we thought we'd give you an extra dose of Saints Linkage today. I know, exciting. Comments and discussion are welcomed. ...
Hello EOSB fans. Bored at work? Hungry for Saints stories? Fear not, we're back for a whole new week, one that actually includes a game. The bye week is over, thankfully. So, grab the fine plate of beignets you bought awaiting linkage. It's time to munch on fried dough and read about your Saints. As always, comments and discussion are welcomed. ...
It's the last day of the week and you're looking forward to the LSU-Florida game. Understandable. We're all looking forward to that showdown in Tiger Stadium. But the Saints still exist, even if they're on hiatus for a week. We don't take a break from writing because y'all don't want a break from reading. And besides, the EOSB is mom approved. ...
New Orleans has arrived to 4-0 for only the third time in franchise history, winning games by 18, 26, 20 and 14 points. But how'd it get to this point? Let's look at some of how it all happened as we head into the bye weekend. (As always, comments are encouraged from the EOSB legion). ...
It's another hot, sticky day in the Gulf South. So you should just stay inside and check out Saints Linkage. That's my suggestion. As always, comments are encouraged. ...
Good day vivacious EOSB supporters.Welcome to another edition of Saints Linkage, where we gather words about New Orleans' professional football franchise and you read them. On this exceptionally hot and humid October day, is there a better way to spend your time than indoors and not doing your work whilst you partake in learning about the Saints? I didn't think so. Enjoy your beignets and chicory and enjoy linkage. ...Darren Sharper found his fountain of youth with Gregg Williams' defense. And now he's being rewarded with honors - the NFL named him the NFC Defensive Player of the Week for his standout game against the Jets in New Orleans' 24-10 win. Sharper had two interceptions, returning one for a franchise record 99 yards. He finished with a team-high eight tackles and had two passes defensed. Through four games, Sharper has 14 to...
OK, everyone can take a breath now. We're fully invested in a bye week now. The players will have a lightened schedule the next few days before getting back to the grind on Monday. That doesn't mean, however, that we all get bye week's. Our work load may not be as heavy, but stories will still flow off the keyboards of the collective New Orleans and national media. You can pick up a beignet or two or maybe some a bagel and lox ...
It's another exciting day here at the EOSB. Yes, the Saints are 4-0. But the excitement for me is that I get to feed y'all more information after seeing a great concert at One Eyed Jacks last night. Groggy? A little bit. But not bleary-eyed enough to keep from giving y'all the information you crave. NFL offense rankings of interest
I'm guessing it was a long night for the EOSB faithful. Big day of tailgating. Big win. Big night of celebrating. Raise your hands if you're not at work today nursing a hangover (the good kind, albeit)? I know I was out late, though I wasn't celebrating. I was taking in the Blitzen Trapper concert. Good stuff. Really clean, polished live show. One of the up-and-coming bands in this country, hands down. Oh. You wanted Saints new...
I know what you're thinking - it's the end of the week, it rained hard this morning, I really don't want to get out of bed. Then I say don't. Pick up your computer, get a friend to bring you beignets and coffee and sit down with the warm comfort of Saints linkage. ...
New Orleans has arrived to 3-0 for only the sixth time in franchise history, winning games by 18, 26 and 20 points. But how'd it get to this point? Let's look at some of how it all happened as we peer into the future at the Jets game on Sunday.
Hello EOSB standard-bearers. Thanks returning for another scintillating version of Saints Linkage. There's some good stuff on the interweb today - as one would expect when two of the top teams in the NFL get together - and I've compiled a bit of it for you. If you could go for a tasty beignet and some OJ or chicory, now's the time. Plenty of reading material for your perusal. ... |
