Why I'd prefer treaty instead of the Voice to Parliament

Jimmy Everett-Puralia Meenamatta is from the Turbuna peoples of North-east Midlands in Tasmania, but now lives on Cape Barren Island. He won’t be voting in favour of the Voice to Parliament because, he told the ABC, he doesn’t believe it would result in meaningful change for First Nations people. Instead, he’d prefer to see a treaty written by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. I’ve…

Saints Legacy: Jim Everett

After competing against one of the league's most feared defensive units in New Orleans for eight seasons, Jim Everett was once again a victim of bad timing when joining his new team. Three of the four members of the Saints vaunted Dome Patrol linebacking corps, first Pat Swilling in 1992, then Rickey Jackson and Vaughan Johnson after 1993, were gone from the team by Everett's arrival. The fourth, Sam Mills, left after the 1994 season. Star defensive backs Gene Atkins and Toi Cook left after the '93 season as well. Saints offensive stars Dalton Hilliard, Eric Martin, and Hoby Brenner had also departed after the 1993 season, leaving New Orleans in a rebuilding mode. The Saints weren't completely void of talent, however. They one of the best kick returners in the league with Tyrone Hughes, still had some defensive stars in Wayne Martin and Renaldo Turnbull, and they added Joe Johnson and Winfred Tubbs during the '94 draft. Everett was again paired up with an outstanding football coach in Jim Mora, but another also known for sometimes conservative offensive game planning. He had two dynamic receivers in Quinn Early and Michael Haynes, along with strong tight end play with Irv Smith and Wesley Walls. The 1994 Saints lost five of their first seven games, and wound up missing the playoffs with a 7-9 record. Everett set a team record with 3,855 yards while completing a career best 64.1% of his passes, and threw 22 touchdowns for a top-10 passing attack, but the Saints ranked just 25th in total defense and finished near the bottom of the league in rushing. Everett did defeat his old team, the Rams, twice during the year in what would be their final season in Los Angeles. Everett was even better statistically in 1995, again completing over 60% of his passes while throwing for 3,970 yards and 26 scores. Unfortunately, the team around him continued to worsen, finishing dead last in rushing and 22nd in total defense. New Orleans finished the year strong, going 7-4 over the last eleven games, but an 0-5 start to the season doomed them to another 7-9 record.

The Jim Mora era of the New Orleans Saints came to an inglorious end during the 1996 season. Another 0-5 start bottomed out into a 3-13 season, as New Orleans finished at the bottom of the league in most offensive categories. Coach Mora resigned before the end of the regular season, and Everett was benched for the final few games of the year. The offseason hire in 1996 of Mike Ditka as the team's new coach brought Everett's time in New Orleans to an end, and he would sign with the San Diego Chargers in what would be his final NFL season. Everett's career essentially ended how it began, with a start against the New Orleans Saints. He got the starting nod in the second game of the 1997 season against his old team, and threw a touchdown pass as the Chargers defeated the Saints in the Superdome 20-6. It was the last start of Everett's career, and he retired at the end of the 1997 season.

Jim Everett was among the most prolific quarterbacks of his era, every bit as productive as Joe Montana, John Elway, Dan Marino, Warren Moon, Jim Kelly, and Troy Aikman. He threw for 34,837 yards in his career, ranking 14th on the NFL's all-time list. His 203 touchdown passes rank 25th best, and he is among the all-time leaders in both pass attempts and completions. Everett ranks 5th in Saints franchise history in passing yardage and touchdown passes, despite only playing three seasons in New Orleans. He has the best two passing yardage seasons in Saints history from a quarterback other than Drew Brees. He is also first on the Rams all-time passing yardage list, while ranking second on that franchise's list in touchdown passes.

Everett, who today spearheads the fan revival since the return of the Rams franchise to Los Angeles, still follows both the Rams and Saints closely. The physical pounding of an NFL player has of course taken a toll, but he remains in solid health, and admits to being torn when his two former teams play each other. One of the league's best quarterbacks during his playing days, Everett did not play for the most talented New Orleans Saints teams, but his contributions to the franchise, and to the league, should never be forgotten.

Opening Bell - November 1st, 2016

Happy All Saints Day everyone.

Trump raise specter of crisis if Clinton wins regarding consequences of the FBI investigation. I’m sure we’ll manage, and it’ll give his cable news network plenty of fodder.

Until they find something more tangible in these emails than info on Anthony Weiner’s dick however not much will happen by way of how people vote.

Iraqi troops have broken through ISIS defenses as the assault on Mosul has begun. Commanders believe that the battle could still take months.

GE to merge oil unit with Baker Hughes. I’m sure this is very important news to a great many people. If only the Twins could merge velocity with Phil Hughes they might get to 70 wins again one of these days.

Gotta hear both sides, imo.

RTARL mascot Peter Thiel says the Trump movement isn’t going away. The quote that everyone’s been having fun with though is calling Hulk Hogan a “single-digit millionaire” and how that holds him back.

Sorry fans of pointless nostalgia cash grabs, there won’t be a third entry in the Michael Bay Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. I watched the first one when it came to HBO or whatever, it wasn’t even bad enough to be entertaining, it was just lame.

Here’s a string of words one normally wouldn’t expect to see: Chicago school cancels 'Christian' haunted house that depicted Pulse nightclub massacre for Halloween. Well, I mean I’m not exactly stunned that Bible Thumpers would use that tragedy for their agenda, but you’re still taken back when it happens.
