What up Saints fans! Nola Chick is taking a break, if only for one night, and handing things over to a…(gasp!) Cardinals fan. But wait…don’t reach for the Google button just yet. You see even though the Cards are my roots, I’ve recently been bitten by the black and gold bug.
While I’ve learned a lot about the Saints by covering the NFC for a Fantasy football site, I wasn’t totally sold until February 29th. Before then, something was missing or shall I say “someone”! Then came that fateful day in February. Call it the scale tipper, the confirmer, the DARN straw that broke the camel’s back. I’m talking about the signing of Jonathan Vilma! Ladies and gents, from that day forward the fat lady had sung. I’m sold on the Saints!
As a pseudo Vilma stalker turned “black and gold” convert, you can bet I’ll be glued to every Saints game, keeping track of my boys and watching to see how we fix our “ish”…as in some serious issues! “Issues like what?” yelled some belligerent drunk dude in the back. Well, allow me to elaborate.Read more »
While recently flipping through the pages of US weekly, (don’t worry, I just read it for the pictures) I recently stumbled upon an article about Reggie Bush and his media whore girlfriend Kim Kardashian. In the article, the skank bag, oh wait, we can get sued for that… the “alleged” skank bag gushes about her relationship with Bush and hints that wedding bells are just around the corner. To that I yell, (while running toward him in slow motion) NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!Read more »
I had so much fun watching this year’s NFL draft in my midriff top and daisy dukes and brushing my streaked, blonde weave while mispronouncing the name of New Orleans. Oh wait, that wasn’t me. It was the Fantasy Sports Girl.
While we know it would be hypocritical for Reggie oglers like the Chicks in the Huddle to judge the folks behind fantasysportsgirl.com for using a sports blog to showcase their love for T&A, we can’t help but judge the folks from fantasysportsgirl.com who’ve decided to use a sports blog to showcase their love for T&A. The website sells sex about as subtly as Jenna Jameson. Read more »

Will Smith, the other Man in Black, is officially back with the Saints. Smith and the Saints agreed to a six year, $70 million deal. That makes him the third highest paid defensive end in the league. Below are his stats according to the National Post sports ticker.

You can get the complete scoop on this million dollar man from Jimmy Smith (no relation) at the Times Picayune. Read more »
Raheem Brock is a key player for one of the strongest defensive teams in the NFL. A seventh year DE for the Indianapolis Colts, #79 is now proving he’s more than just a powerful player, he’s also a big giver.This weekend the star is in his hometown of Philadelphia hosting his 2nd Annual Celebrity Weekend to benefit Brock’s Kids and the Raheem Brock Foundation.
I got a chance to talk with 6ft. 4’ – 274 lb Brock, about turning 30, starting his own foundation…and oh yeah ladies, he’s taken!
By now you’ve probably heard of Saints Coach Sean Payton’s ambitious plan to launch a new non-profit organization called “Payton’s Play It Forward.” What you probably don’t know is that the organization may never have gotten off the ground if not for one fateful night over a bottle of wine with a Texas chick who doesn’t take no for an answer.
We’ll get to that night in a moment. But first, we want you to meet and understand this lady from the Lone Star state. Karen Hegner, pictured above (left) with Sean’s wife Beth, is the essence of all things southern. She’s got charm, smarts, wit, and balls. That’s right, a chick with balls…but not in the RuPaul kind of way. She’s got the kind of balls it takes to start up a non-profit and grow it into a hugely successful welfare to work organization called Crossroads Housing. She’s got the kind of balls it takes to approach the almighty Dallas Cowboys and convince them to sponsor her organization. And she’s got the kind of balls it takes to push a man like Sean Payton to change the culture of a city through his work off the football field. Read more »
It is the worst kept secret since Jeff Garcia came out of the closet. Oh wait, that hasn’t happened…yet. Well, it’s one of the worst kept secrets since OJ’s “non-confession” confession in the book If I Did It. Joe “Hollywood” Horn wants out of Atlanta. And we can’t say we really blame him.
The guy went to A-town in the hopes of teaming up with one of the leagues most feared and game changing quarterbacks. Instead, he ended up sitting on the sidelines playing witness to a nonstop blooper reel courtesy of Joey Harrington, Byron Leftwich, and some insurance salesman dude or whatever he was. While it’s in my genetic code to laugh at any form of misery brought upon a Falcon player, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit I still have a soft spot for my old cup o’ Joe. So the question remains, if Joe Horn asked to return to the Saints, should we take him back? Read more »
