The guys just feel like he let us down. Today is the last day of practice and that's almost four months since we've been here. And at no point in those four months did he find the time to stop by. It almost feels like it's just a PR move at this point.

Good or bad, this team is going to fight until the end. If anything has come out of this mayhem, it's what this team seems to be. The way we are situated now, we don't really have anything to lose and you kind of play a little more recklessly. Even in the losses, you saw guys still playing hard. . . . We have a good, talented team. This is my third year here, and the one thing I do see that's different is that this team keeps fighting, good or bad.

I'm from Haines City, Fla.. So I guess I was liable to shoot a squirrel with my BB gun every now and again, and maybe throw it in a little bit of hot grease.

I'm just trying to keep the guys as upbeat as possible. It's a challenge. This is unprecedented, and maybe that will give us the focus we need. ? At some point, especially when you're losing, that traveling will come into play. There's just so many Marriotts you can check into.

In a nutshell, it feels like training camp hasn't stopped,

It was a good game I think, on both sides. They had an untimely turnover, we had one. I think it was a very even-flow game,

It seemed like we were playing uphill all season.

It's been emotional for us, but we're not in the same situation as the people in those shelters. It was a good break for us to just be able to go out and play football, but it's not all about us anymore.

That makes them away games. Anytime you get on a plane and pack a bag, it must be an away trip.

It's a home game only in the sense that we don't have to bus or fly anywhere. However this season turns out, I'm quite sure that if somebody writes a book about Katrina, they would have to devote a chapter to the New Orleans Saints who had an entire season in disarray.
