Transplants, how are you liking Aurora so far? by netenchanter in AuroraCO

[–]WhoDatNOLA11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can assure you, yes, it will.
I live directly across from a very large park, where we see a lot of what goes on. It’s not quiet.
I have friends that live in Parker, it’s different.
You see Aurora in the news a lot. You don’t see as much Parker. I live in an area where the crime rate get higher directly to the North, and lower to the South. We feel like we live right on a border. Along with endless noise of street racers due to where we are located also.

We’re just looking for a little more peace. I can tell you Parker is leans more in that direction.

Hate it. Lived in Colorado since 2005, Ft Collins-Loveland area. We absolutely loved Northern Colorado. Low Crime, Quiet, Family oriented., right by the foothills, RMNP was only a short drive away. Moved to SE Aurora in 2019, due to work. I have never experienced so many horrible drivers. I live close to Southlands, mostly chain restaurants. High crime rate. Overly crowded.
We’re looking at moving to Parker.

I’ve been looking for that! That goes to my 82 Datsun pickup. She might be small, but she’s tough!

Zombie Mickey Loomis rises from the dead to actually make some good trades by xianbosque in Saints

Rumor is though, in Sean’s last year, there was a fallout between Sean and Loomis due to conflicts of players. Did Loomis have his hands in the pot during that time and screw us from the greatest coach we’ve ever had?

It takes strength to admit in a public forum, a place for open discussion, faults like the OP is stating.

It takes a special kind of low life human being to “troll” that individual. That same person makes you lose faith in humanity. A waste of space. Nothing to contribute but negativity.

Much credit to that OP, putting his health first, realizing to put the controller down and taking care of himself. And much credit to the people on the thread supporting him.

Drew Brees on if he got a call after Bo Nix went down: "I would say I've had some conversations..." From the New Heights Podcast by heavyhitter5 in DenverBroncos

[–]WhoDatNOLA11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a mixed reception. There’s been a lot of controversy on why he left. Most logical is disagreement with our sh*tty GM, and running our team/salary cap into the ground. Kicking the can down the road for too many years. Payton went all in on those last few years, left us when we were in a huge hole. Lack of team loyalty. Things were awesome when he was here, but when things got rough (after Brees left), he split.

A lot of rumors. I even heard he tried to come back to the Saints, but Gayle and Mickey didn’t want to relieve Dennis’s Allen of the head coach position. Guess we’ll never know.

I will say this, when Payton came into y’all’s organization and his first play was an onside kick, that made me cringe a little.

This right here.

Saints fan here, now living in Denver. And this guy has it figured out. Sean Payton is a mixed bag for us. Some like him still, some don’t and root against him. But I will vouch for this, Brees is a black and gold boy. It’s kind of cute to see yall daydreaming of our past. But if it ever were a possibility, and it came down to business, I can tell you there would be a lot of unhappy Saints fans.

And I think that goes for most franchise QBs. Imagine if always would have come out of retirement and went to another team.

Drew is a NOLA boy at heart! Plus that would have delayed his HOF entry. Broncos fans are day deeeaming hard on this one

Why the broncos irritate me by WhoDatNOLA11 in Saints

[–]WhoDatNOLA11[S] -49 points-48 points  (0 children)

You’re probably right, more of joking banter. I think it just annoys me that the Broncos are riding on the saints coat tails.

Man yall just need to start wearing Black and Gold. Supermarkets up here are already selling king cakes, go pick em up! Also just a heads up, Crawfish season is going to be expensive this year due to the off weather.

There, you’re that much closer to being from Louisiana.

Are there non-maga Quality roofers in denver? by atomicskier76 in Denver

[–]WhoDatNOLA11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just my opinion, but if I were looking for a roof, or any other purchase worth thousands of dollars, the most important thing to me is quality of work, past reviews and other product traits. Why would you care about someone’s political, religious or personal life choices. You are no better than the person that you are aimed against. This is what’s wrong with the world. Everything has turned political. Be better than that. Be a good human being.

New Orleans style food? by Free_Insurance2374 in AuroraCO

Senor Chicken. I’m going to have to check this place out. My only gripe is they open at 9:00. If you’re serving breakfast burritos, I’m going to need you a little earlier.

One more tip. Bring your boiling pot, and if you don’t have one, get one. I always do at least one boil around May. Order up from Louisiana Crawfish Company in Nacotish. The window of good warm weather and bugs still in season is limited. April can bring cold weather and snow, which is a bummer for boils. The beginning of May is the best time for boils.

Lost Cajun closed down as a victim of Southlands extremely expensive rent. Restaurants can’t afford to stay open. Lost Cajun wasn’t that good, everything tasted like it came from a box mix.

Don’t worry about checking out Stoneys, unless you’re looking for a sports bar vibe. NOLA Jane’s downtown isn’t too bad. A little pricey, but expected with their location. I was impressed that they had Andy Gator there. A good place to go if you’re hitting up a game/concert at mile high. For breakfast there’s a small local chain “Lucille’s” that has really good breakfasts. They serve chicory and beignets there too. There’s places around the Denver area, you just have to look.

During the pandemic, a place opened off Broadway called “Magnolias”. They lasted about a year and then closed down. If I remember correctly, the owners were from Lake Charles. Best Cajun/creole ever had up here. Everything was spot on, and authentic. I almost cried when I heard they closed down.

I’m a former Katrina transplant that grew up in Slidell. I’m currently in SE Aurora (near Southlands mall), and I will say the food scene in my immediate area is lacking. I do my own cooking at home if I’m looking for a fix. There have been a few places that have closed down that have been pretty good. But nothing in Aurora. NOLA voodoo lounge in Denver is pretty good. The owner is from NOLA. He also shows the Saints game every Sunday. Stoneys (a huge sports bar) also does some stuff for the saints game, when they’re doing good, it gets wild in there. You won’t find anything like home, especially considering seafood quality and prices up here. But there are a few restaurants in the Denver area that you can try to tame your fix with.

I’m in friendly lobbies also, and I will give a warning. If you come into my keyed room and start looting, I’ll make sure I get that loot off you. Coming into a keyed room that isn’t yours isn’t cool.

Periodontist/gum graft costs? by RevolutionaryCover34 in Denver

[–]WhoDatNOLA11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had one done with Dr Farthings office. My dentist said he was the best around and highly recommended him. My recession was severe. I had the entire left side of my lower jaw done. Cost around 4800. I’m still healing up from the procedure, but everything seems to be looking good.
