    This week Big Daddy recaps Monday Night’s Minnesota game, critiques Monday Night personalities past and present, relives the inadvertent whistle call, examines the Saints playoff hopes, covers the best of Saturday’s local elections, and gives his world-famous pregame information.

    ABC has used a variety of different broadcast combinations to bring viewers Monday Night Football. The original team of Howard Cosell, Frank Gifford and Don Meredith still ranks highest. Today’s ESPN crew stinks so badly, they make The E! True Hollywood Story a viable option. Big Daddy now honors MNF’s best sideline reporter ever, Eric Dickerson (PIMP), his deep voice, clubbin’ threads, and bling had chicks lining-up every Monday.

     What’s up Saints fans? Big Daddy feels like James Brown after Sunday. This week on Saints Beat … Big Daddy, remembers Coach Payton’s predecessor, asks Superdome officials for change, details smart dome food choices, recaps the Raider game, surveys the NFC playoff picture, plus gives out his world famous pregame information.

     Who remembers Jim Haslett’s grave mistake? This past week Haslett became the head coach of the St. Louis Rams. During a press conference, Haslett admitted he should’ve benched Aaron Brooks (due to a right shoulder injury) in favor of Jake Delhomme. Refusing to use the proper quarterback cost the Saints a playoff birth. They say confession is good for the soul. You know what Big Daddy says: F##k you Jimmy! Apology not accepted! How could you do that to your own team? Were you too busy knocking up Saintsations to notice Brooks couldn’t lift his right arm, much less throw a pass?

     What’s up Saints fans? Big Daddy is singing the blues after Sunday’s embarrassing performance. This week on Saints Beat … Big Daddy examines Saints fans’ passion at the Kingpin bar, recaps the Carolina game, reviews the NFC playoff picture, questions Coach Payton’s decision making, ponders next week’s jaunt across the pond, and gives his world-famous pregame information.

     Big Daddy wants to know how you enjoy Saints road games? Saints fans everywhere develop rituals maximizing their viewing pleasure during away games; some attend or host small get-togethers, others frequent their favorite watering holes (the Kingpin bar is Big Daddy’s locale). Big Daddy thinks die-hard Kingpin regulars create an unmatched atmosphere, generating energy levels nearly simulating stadium-like conditions. Whether the Saints win or lose, Kingpin patrons exude tremendous passion; too bad Sean Payton’s team doesn’t exhibit that desire.

     What’s up Saints fans? Big Daddy is eating fish and chips listening to British invasion albums after Sunday’s game. This week on Saints Beat … Big Daddy broadcasts more Kingpin news, recaps the San Diego game, questions Coach Payton’s strategy, scans the NFC playoff probabilities, covers Voodoo Fest, and gives out his world-famous pregame information.

     Because NFL officials deemed the Saints the home team in London, Kingpin leadership evoked unparalleled ingenuity erecting a mini-dome outside the bar Sunday. Mini-dome amenities included multiple Saints’ banners, large flat-screen TVs, kick-ass sound, bleachers, rabid Saints fans, and of course a white roof covering the stadium. Luckily, the Superdome’s unscrupulous, con-artist, beer vendors were not servicing the Kingpin’s die-hard fans.
