There may not be NFL games in 2011. If the owners decide on a lockout, the players have more to lose in the short term if there is a work stoppage. The players will run out of money and the owners will be paid. The owners will come out ahead in this one. Despite the high salaries many will go broke if they missed a significant portion of the season. It's sad statement but rings true. A lockout next off season looks almost inevitable now, but the real test for the union will come closer when to when regular player paychecks in Week One are scheduled to show up...
Talks of a Chris Paul trade continue.
Paul in a Bobcats or a Magic uniform are in the news again. It's unlikely CP3 will be wearing another uniform until after next season.
The thought of getting Paul puts a twinkle in the eyes of decision-makers with the Bobcats and Magic. There are number of places Paul could wind up, and Charlotte -- near his suburban home in Winston-Salem and possessing a Hall-of-Fame coach in Larry Brown -- should be among the viable candidates. Michael Jordan is the Bobcats owner now and Paul is a Jordan Brand endorser.
Andy Benoit, founder of NFLTouchdown.com, predicts the Saints will win the NFC South again this season. Writes Benoit: "Undefeated won't happen. Going by talent, the Saints should be around 13-3, 14-2. But we've seen how things go for defending Super Bowl champions. One or two key injuries and this team could be looking at 9-7."
The seep of methane does not come from the BP oil well, but officials believe it might be naturally occurring.BP said that government and company scientists were beginning to believe that the seep which had been discovered over the past days was probably occurring naturally and not a by-product of the BP oil well that has been spewing oil into the Gulf of Mexico.
When you say tacos, all ages come running. When testing this recipe for Fish Tacos, I tried my own creation of a taco seasoning and one using the packet. Well, I thought the oen with the packet came out the best and was a step saver which I am all about. We need to include more fish in our diet, and this recipe is a great family-friendly way to entice even the younger ones.
Standing in front of a seafood processing company today, Governor Bobby Jindal joined commercial fishermen and processors to highlight the vital role commercial fishing plays in Louisiana and the Governor called on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to move quickly to begin testing Louisiana’s waters in order to safely reopen commercial fishing areas closed as a result of oil spill. Earlier today, Governor Jindal met with commercial fishermen and processors at Harlon’s LA Fishing, a seafood processing company in Kenner.
According to the AP, a White House spokesman says BP’s ruptured oil well is leaking at the top, along with seepage
The AP says that leaks could mean the cap on the well has to be opened to prevent oil and gas from escaping elsewhere.
NEW ORLEANS – In response to the Deepwater Horizon incident, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New Orleans District issued three emergency permits on Friday, July 16, 2010.
The emergency permits were issued to BP America Production Co. to install piles and booms in three separate locations: Barataria Pass, Cat Bay along Cat Bay Islands, and Cat Bay along Bird Islands. The first two permits were issued within 24 hours, and the third permit was issued in less than a day.
With the Louisiana U.S. Senate race approaching, two of the candidates running for that spot are beginning to receive national publicity--as if this election really needs it.
This is occuring in part because the election is somewhat tight with the entry of new candidates who want to take on David Vitter. It is also occuring because of the tremendous news story--the BP oil spill.
On Sunday, republican Vitter appeared in front of Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday. On Monday, his major opponent, democrat Charlie Melancon appeared on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe”.

Despite a total blackout from the liberal media in the New Orleans area, the Northshore Tea Party attracted 2,000 people to the Fleur de Lis Center in Mandeville on Saturday. This was the group’s largest crowd in their 18 month history as part of the incredible tea party movement, the most substantial political force to hit this country in decades.
Unfortunately, hundreds of people were turned away as only 1,100 people were allowed in the building. The seating capacity was reached well before the event started. It was an enthusiastic crowd of patriotic, flag waving, God fearing Americans who are upset about the direction of this nation.

Nearly two years ago, in the wake of Anh “Joseph” Cao’s victory over scandal-plagued incumbent William Jefferson, the conventional political wisdom was that the Vietnamese Republican’s triumph in the very Democratic-leaning, African-American majority 2nd Congressional District was a fluke. It could not happen again in a normal election, the pundits mused, but a recent poll suggests they may have spoken too soon.
According to a new Verne Kennedy survey, in a head to head contest, Joseph Cao leads the likely Democratic frontrunner State Rep. Cedric Richmond by a 51%-26% margin.
Retired Admiral Thad Allen, the Incident Commander over the BP Oil Spill issued a statement early Monday morning sent a letter apparently confirming the schism between BP and the US government and the existence of seepage near the well and possible methane over the well.
Late Sunday night Allen unveiled the existence of the seepage and also expressed terms for BP to follow in relationship to the monitoring of the BP well and the notification of incidents and conditions.
According to Coast Guard, Admiral That Allen, there has been a oil seepage associated with the "integrity test" that began last week. Also, there appears to be a rift between the U.S and BP regarding the way to continue with the ‘integrity test” and also concerning the leak of oil. Admiral Thad Allen, the National Incident Commander sent a very terse letter to Bob Dudley, Chief Managing Director of BP Group on Sunday which in part, said, “Given the current observations from the test, including the detected seep a distance from the well and undetermined anomalies at the well head, monitoring of the seabed is of paramount importance during the test period.”
