Just thought of something, will the Saints be playing? They have a game

[karlrschneider]

scheduled in just over a week at Caroline then a "home" game on the 18th. Anybody know where their HQ is physically located & can they even operate? Don't take this wrong, I'm not minimizing the obvious ongoing tragedy but I'm an NFL fan and was just wondering.

1. I heard somewhere today that they'd be playing out of

San Antonio until they can get back to NO.

Displaced by the fury of Hurricane Katrina, the New Orleans Saints will set up shop, at least temporarily, in San Antonio for a second straight year. Where the franchise will play what now appears likely to be a home-away-from-home regular-season schedule, though, has yet to be determined.

"All options are under consideration," Saints director of media relations Greg Bensel said about where New Orleans might play its home games. "It's all on the table and there will continue to be discussions. But, for now, nothing is decided."

What the team does know is that it will practice in San Antonio for the foreseeable future. The Saints will fly to San Antonio following Thursday night's preseason finale against the Oakland Raiders, will be reunited there with their families, and begin preparations for the Sept. 11 season opener at Carolina. The Saints have spent this week practicing in San Jose, Calif.

6. Well, there aint no teams in the Los Angeles area

and the NFL is hot to put one here.

And the LA Coliseum is available.

7. San Antonio is furiously trying to pull off a Coup and land the team.

Got ourselves a new Mayor that does these covert little things.

8. They can have them

I just think LA should make the offer without an agenda.
