OMG!
This rocks woy, although i didnt expect anything less from you

Thanks Kia Kaha, I appreciate it.

Well this will probably be the last time I post on here till Wednesday. I've already explained why, if you're wondering. Umm, I might post from my cell sometime during my trip, but just to bump this. With that being said, I'll talk to you guys again on Wednesday. Florida, here I come!

 

[Gonzo]

Friendly bump. Excited for updates.

 

[Gonzo]

Bump Bump.

 

[Woy]

Thanks for the bumps Gonzo. The hotel I'm staying at tonight has free wi-fi, so I'm posting from my iPod.

Anyways, my trip's going good. Grad nite was pretty fucking awesome last night at Hollywood Studios, and I just got back from Typhoon Lagoon. Was ten feet away from Hayden Pantierre last night. and saw Marques Houston at a South Carolina mall we stopped at. Tomorrow I'll be at Universal Studios all day and Daytona Beach all day Tuesday.

Once again, updates return Wednesday. Just keeping you guys informed on how I'm doing.

 

[Gonzo]

Hayden :drools:

Was just thinking the same thing.

"Was ten feet away from Hayden Pantierre last night."


Motherfucking lucky bastard.

Well, I was 10 fett away from Shawn Johnson, so I guess we're equal?

 

[Kia Kaha]

YAH, he gets back tommorow
More updates hopefully

"Was ten feet away from Hayden Pantierre last night."


Motherfucking lucky bastard.

Hayden Pantierre > Shawn Johnson. But Shawn is still pretty damn hot. Katy Perry ain't that bad looking either. I definitely plan on making another trip down to Florida with my friends over the summer.

Well I said I'd be back today with updates, so look for one coming soon. Thanks for the bumps everyone.

Week 4 Preview

at

New Orleans Saints (2-1) at Arizona Cardinals (2-1)

Pre-Game Injury Report

NO- Willie Whitehead, DE (hairline arm fracture - probable) | Derrick Rodgers, OLB (strained elbow - doubtful) | Fred Thomas, CB (pulled stomach muscles - out) | Brian Young, DT (pulled calf - out) | Kendyl Jacox, G (broken ribs - out) | Devery Henderson, WR (torn calf - out)
ARZ- Adrian Wilson, SS (fractured arm - out) | Bryant Johnson, WR (torn calf - out)

Pre-Game Matchups

Saints QB Aaron Brooks (63-101, 569 yards, 4 TD, 1 INT) vs. Cardinals QB Drew Henson (62-108, 1149 yards, 9 TD, 5 INT)

Brooks has gotten off to a solid start this season, making few mistakes, as evidence shown in his one interception. However, one of his main targets, rookie Devery Henderson is out with a torn calf. Henson has made a few mistakes, expected from a rookie, but leads the league in passing yards. He has gotten off to a great start and will look to continue that against a weak Saints secondary. His 511 passing yards last week were a rookie record.​

Saints HB Duece McAllister (56 carries, 199 yards) vs. Cardinals HB Emmitt Smith (53 carries, 144 yards, 2 TD)

McAllister is looking at what Warrick Dunn did to the Cardinals defense last week and he's drooling. The complete opposite of Dunn, being a power back, Deuce should still be in for a big game. Emmitt Smith showed some signs of his age last week with a lackluster performance (14 carries, 16 yards). He'll need help from Erik Bickerstaff (15 carries, 38 yards last week) in order to put some pressure on the Saints defense.​

Saints WR Donte' Stallworth (15 catches, 145 yards) vs. Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald (28 catches, 390 yards, 2 TD)

Stallworth is missing running mate Devery Henderson this week, so the Cardinals secondary can focus more on him and teammate Joe Horn. Both receivers will have to run good routes to get open against one of the top ranked secondaries in the league. Fitzgerald has made a major impact as a rookie, as he leads the league in catches early. Running mate Anquan Boldin leads in receiving yards and touchdowns, so you can say that the Cardinals have the best receiving core in football right now. Henson should have a big day throwing to these two.​

Prediction: Saints 27, Cardinals 24​

 

[Woy]

GLENDALE, AZ (AP)- After an awful performance by the ground game last week at Atlanta, the Cardinals got a boost from an all-time great. Emmitt Smith had 151 yards and two touchdowns and Erik Bickerstaff added 85 yards in Arizona's 44-14 blowout win over the hapless New Orleans Saints. Drew Henson, who only threw 19 passes compared to the 58 he threw last week, got things going with two throws to Larry Fitzgerald. Smith then carried the ball three times for 13 yards before Henson found Anquan Boldin for an 18 yard touchdown. Aaron Brooks led the Saints back down the field on a nine play drive which ended in a touchdown pass to Boo Williams.

Arizona then went on a fifteen play drive that ended in a Neil Rackers field goal to put them up 10-7 in the second quarter. A three and out by New Orleans was proceeded by four runs by Bickerstaff, followed by a 42 yard touchdown by Smith. Rackers tacked another field goal on the board before halftime. Smith carried the load on the first drive of the second half, carrying it five straight times before Henson found a wide open Boldin for a 42 yard touchdown. Brooks then threw an interception on the next drive to Coby Reinhart and Smith just needed two carries to find paydirt. Back-to-back three and outs gave the Saints the ball back late in the third. Brooks threw the ball towards Joe Horn when Dexter Jackson jumped it perfectly and ran back the mistake 65 yards for a touchdown. The Arizona secondary was great again, forcing Brooks into two interceptions and a 34% completion percentage. The surprising Cardinals go to 3-1 and will head to the Bay Area to face the San Francisco 49ers.

Yeah Emmitt finally broke out of his shell and played well. Bickerstaff gave me some good carries as well.

I'll try to have the Around the League update tonight; it's the completion of week 4, therefore I'll have in more in-depth with more statistical leaders and standings. I'll do this every four weeks.
