It was super chilly when I walked to work this morning, even at 10am.

Time to break out the winter clothes.

San Antonio is team’s likely home next season

Saints owner Tom Benson declared this week that nothing will be decided on the franchise’s future until after the season. But ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reports that, based on information from key league sources, the team has probably played its last game in New Orleans.

According to Mortensen, San Antonio is a likely home for 2006 and Los Angeles is the preferred destination beyond that. The NFL could still include New Orleans as a Super Bowl site when the city is reconstructed, and expansion might even be a possibility, but that’s 10 to 15 years away.

If the Saints relocate to San Antonio or elsewhere, New Orleans has only a slim chance of ever seeing another NFL team, according to a major sports consultant.

Somebody has me in the their address book and has a virus. I have no idea who it is, but most likely if they have me in their address book, they may also have other readers of this site in their address books as well. This is a public service announcement.

Recently, I have have been getting many supposedly official-looking emails claiming to be sent from admin@elbuzzard.com or info@elbuzzard.com. Since I am the adminstrator of elbuzzard.com, I find these kind of funny. These emails are all a part of an elaborate hoax, attempting to spread a virus in the .zip attachment.

This is what the emails look like:

Dear Elbuzzard Member,

We have temporarily suspended your email account buzz@elbuzzard.com.

This might be due to either of the following reasons:

1. A recent change in your personal information (i.e. change of address).
2. Submiting invalid information during the initial sign up process.
3. An innability to accurately verify your selected option of subscription due to an internal error within our processors.
See the details to reactivate your Elbuzzard account.

Sincerely,The Elbuzzard Support Team

+++ Attachment: No Virus (Clean)
+++ Elbuzzard Antivirus – www.elbuzzard.com

It is safe to IGNORE and/or DELETE these emails.
DO NOT follow the “instructions”,
DO NOT
open the attachment, and
DO NOT
follow the links.

The big hint should be the “+++ Attachment: No Virus (Clean)”.

I repeat: DO NOT OPEN THE ZIP ATTACHMENT. I’m tired of getting these emails.

If you are reading this, and think it may be you who opened a similar email, let me know, and I’ll help you clean your machine.

From Fantasy Football writer Joe Bryant:

I’m with Saints coach Jim Haslett on the holding call at the end of the Atlanta game. That was lame and should have been a no call. To me, it was exactly like the end of the USC – Notre Dame game where Reggie Bush clearly violated the letter of rules pushing Matt Leinart into the end zone.

I don’t think you call that one on USC. And I don’t think you call the Saints for holding there. That flag doesn’t get thrown on New England or Philadelphia or Dallas.

Nagin blasts Saints owner for trying to move team

NEW ORLEANS — Mayor Ray Nagin disparaged Saints owner Tom Benson on Wednesday for working with San Antonio officials to permanently keep the NFL team in Texas.

The mayor’s comments came after the departures of two top Saints executives who were supportive of keeping the Saints in Louisiana. Nagin is concerned that San Antonio officials said publicly that Benson is working with them to relocate the franchise to Texas.

“We want our Saints, we may not want the owner back,” Nagin said while attending the reopening of Cafe Du Monde in the French Quarter.
