NO Sports

We're back, team! Our favorite locals sports teams may be on break, but unfortunately we aren't - so lets talk about them! While the end of the Pelicans season left us heartbroken, the Saints worked magic in the draft room to give us some of the best names (literally) we'll likely ever see wear the black and gold.

Its over, its really over! The Fantasy Saints disappoint, the Real Saints remain relevant, and nothing makes sense! Vaughan & Seth join us to party and cap off a longer than expected season. Who Dat? NO Sports Dat... maybe.

The end is in sight... THANK THE FANTASY GODS! Joel & Bryan reflect on this years fantasy season and discuss future fantasy endeavors in the 2nd to last episode of Fantasy Saints. Good luck to all those who made their fantasy championship!

Are you a "bad fan" if you are actively cheering for your team to lose with the hope it could force a much needed change? Who cares! The Fantasy Saints barely made the consolation tournament, but things don't look too good for our boys as both the real & fantasy team are going up against one of their toughest opponents to date - Team Queen / The Los Angeles Rams. Evan Rabalais jo...

The Real Saints pulled off an UGLY win over the even UGLIER Panthers to stay in the playoff hunt, but unfortunately our beloved Fantasy Saints got destroyed at the gates of the fantasy playoffs and have thusly been eliminated. As we head to the CONSOLATION bracket, local Raiders & Saints fan Darrell Rollo joins us once again to discuss what the Real Saints can do moving forward to address thei...

Things are winding down and hope is waning in these few weeks preceding the playoffs. Both the real Saints & our beloved all Saints fantasy team both took a hard L in Week 13 and with only 2 weeks left AND going up against the best team in the league, things aren't looking good for the Fantasy Saints. At least the real Saints still have a chance (or do they?)!

Being a fantasy football commissioner aint easy, but Vincent Zambon joins us again to show us how to make it look that way after another league shaking ordeal. The playoffs are still in sight for both the real & fantasy Saints but our vision is blurry and our QB stinks so let's temper our expectations shall we.

After a devastating loss in Week 10, both the Fantasy & Real Saints enjoyed a Bye in Week 11 where hopefully they can recoup just enough to cobble together a playoff run. Long time friend of the show, Seth Hartley, joins us again to catch up on his fantasy happenings, make sense of last game's collapse, and gameplan for what to expect moving forward.

No matter the sport or time of season, New Orleans teams are struggling across the board! Is it the injuries, the coaching, or is something more grievous afoot? Tune in to this Emergency Update Edition of NO Sports Headlines for the most up to date information on our favorite teams!

The New Orleans Saints have just turned on the Taysom Hill show and the Fantasy Saints are reaping the benefits (with some help from the poor active/benched player choices by our opponents). Long time fantasy friend Millie Rollo joins us to share her female fantasy football perspective in a dong dominated industry before our potentially winnable Week 10 matchup & the inevitable Week 11 Bye wee...

OK, we won a game last weekend. If we win next weekend, it's called "two in a row". And  if we win again the next week , it's called a "winning streak"... It has happened before! The Real Saints might finally be getting things going after a solid win against the Colts while the Fantasy Saints continue to defy the odds as we go after the elusive "winning streak&quot...

Our guest today is long-time friend of the show Joel Talley joining us just as the Fantasy Saints appear to be on a heater behind the god-like performances of the heavily leaned upon Alvin Kamara. Can AK41 get us to the playoffs (the fantasy & real Saints)? Or should be burn it all to the ground mid-season?

Unlike our Fantasy Saints, The Real Saints were back at it again in Week 6 with another disappointing loss to an underestimated team in the Houston Texans behind poor offensive play. But we're totally not sweating it here at NO Sports! Which is exactly why we invited resident Derek Carr expert & long-time Raiders fan, Darrell Rollo, on to help us get a better understanding of our new QB &a...

In a complete turnaround, the Saints shutout the New England Patriots in Week 5, which just so happens to be the complete opposite of how our All Saints Fantasy team did this week. Anyone want to talk about it with me? Please?

Despite the return of fantasy RB1 Alvin Kamara & game-time activation decision of semi-injured QB3ish Derek Carr, the Saints continue to grapple with heartbreak for the 2nd week in a row. Is there any hope for our favorite football team? Is there any hope for our all Saints fantasy team? Is Rashid Shaheed a safe Flex-N-Forget candidate? Saints super fan Vaughan Veillon helps us answer these qu...

After a disastrous injury and ensuing mid game collapse (choke), the New Orleans Saints take their first L of the season. What went wrong? Who's to blame? And most importantly, how does this effect the FLEX slot for our all Saints fantasy team?!?! Vincent Zambon joins us to help make sense of it all and expound upon what we Fantasy Saints fans can expect moving forward with our cursed franchis...

Does a "win" in fantasy football even count if you don't have a kickass team name? The answer probably won't surprise you. New Orleans fantasy fan Evan Rabalais catches up with NO Sports once again to talk about some early season heartaches (and torn ligaments/concussions) as well as how to navigate these ever treacherous fantasy seas for Week 3 WITH ONLY players from our favorit...

In a real win-win situation for Week 1, both the actual Saints & our all Saints fantasy team got the W against their respective opponents... barely... but a win is a win! WHO DAT! Seth Hartley joins us in advance of Week 2 to discuss these wins and the best way to keep the mojo/voodoo going against our next opponents, the undefeated Blitzem69ers & the defeated Carolina Panthers.

New Year, New Season, New Podcast, Who Dat? Bryan & Joel team up once again to embark on yet another fantasy football podcast endeavor following an expertly curated fantasy football team consisting of ALL SAINTS PLAYERS (God Help Us) & what to expect from them Week-to-Week with some light causal fantasy and/or football related banter with guests sprinkled in as well.

Sports. Are. Fun. Sometimes the simplest of answers can carry the most weight. In this episode we sit down with the coach of the Ruebots (a local kickball league team) & all around great guy, Coach Jon Frosch, to discuss what could drive a man to such a madness that is managing a group of somewhat drunken adults for a weekly get together of summer sports (spoiler alert, it's because its FU...

Growing up in the Big Easy aint always easy, especially for a basketball fan in the 90s. Lifelong New Orleans sports fan & resident comedian Jon Reynolds joins us this episode to chat about his love of basketball in a football dominated environment as well as his extended tenure as an active player (and fan) of local sports. He also gets to meet my ferret... And if you like comedy, be sure to...

Becoming a fan can happen to us in many ways be it from parental indoctrination, peer pressure from friends, the general fascination with the freaks of nature that are professional athletes, or even by moving to a new country/city that has a professional basketball team with cheap season tickets. We went half way around the world (well he came half way around the world to us) for this episode'...

The football season is over for some of our favorite local teams, but that doesn't mean we don't have anything to look forward to in the future! LSU & Tulane close out their seasons strong with plenty of optimism going into next year, the Saints (in typical Saints fashion) disappointed their fanbase while struggling to stay healthy, and the Pelicans deliver some much needed hope to a city that...

Despite our best efforts fantasy football remains unpredictable, but then again so to is life in general. Joel & Bryan try to wrap up their fantasy seasons while respectfully discussing the unprecedented events of fantasy championships/finals being put on hold after a minor on-field death and the (justifiably) postponed Week 17 game. Is this really the end of the fantasy season? Only you can d...

With the fantasy season finale in sight, the boys of NO Sports kickback while their woes and worries are sent drifting in the wind. So with nothing prepared, Joel & Bryan have an open and free chat about their sealed fates in the playoffs (for better or worse (Bryan made it to at least 1 championship!)) as well as make plans for the end (next week's episode (the FINAL episode)).
