The Pelicans can't keep it together against good teams and need a big change at guard if they're gonna keep their sights set on the 10th seed. A snoozefest of a wildcard weekend shows that the Saints may have been lucky to avoid it. Crime is outta control in the city and the people in charge just want to blame one another. It's just another week in New Orleans!Polk & Kush is sponored by:

The Saints finally fire on all cylinders crushing the Falcons but the Rams (as usual) destroy our hope. The Pelicans have played a lot better after reducing JAX and NAW's minutes, and they have their sights set on the 10th spot - Is a big trade coming this season? LaToya rolls out that mask mandate minutes after her party, the tires are on fire, and the vegans are hospitalizing people. Polk & Kush is sponored by:

The Pelicans show a glimpse of hope with an impressive win lead by Josh Hart over the Clippers, but then quickly lose steam against a steaky Timberwolves team. Watching this Saints game against the Eagles was an exercise in punishment, even with some minor Trautman redemption. Look out for the Thanksgiving gator! What’s going on in Australia? And so much more.

On this week's episode Polk & Kush discuss whether discussing the Pelicans is worthy of discussion. The Saints lose to Atlanta but between Jumbotron face time and Trevor Siemian being decent, it's not all bad. All of that, plus Air BnB tax cheats, saving the world from horse molesters, and alligators used as weapons at Wendy's.
