WHO DAT!?

[NAHSTE]

You act like the Saints are the only team in the world that has a portion of the fan base that says crazy stuff and attracts some fairweather fans, when they have the second best record in the NFL.

I admit, some of the stuff people say is crazy. But these fans have sat through (and supported) a team that is about to make only its seventh playoff appearance in 42 years. People are gonna act a little strange when that happens.

Agreed. But it doesn't mean I can't laugh at how retarded they are. Just because a lot of people are stupid doesn't mean I can't think it's stupid.

I admit, I'm a Saints fan, and I get a good laugh too. Not sure how postgame shows are elsewhere, but to me, the one on WWL 870 is pure comedy. I love it.

Nope, they seriously thought that. They were throwing out so many garbage justifications for the luck they've gotten, it's ridiculous.

"I can see the ghost of (former owner) Mike D. dancing on Bourbon Street right now, there's something in the air"

"You look at how we've found a way to win some of these games, and you have to feel like something is in the air"

"This is a team of destiny"

"We deserve it, all this town and this team has been through, you can't help but think this is our time"

There was even a call in show that had this as the question of the day: "We already know the Saints will be undefeated in Miami, the question is, are you cheering for the Colts to be undefeated as well when we meet?"

I shit you not, this was the ongoing topic of a radio show that I had to endure for three hours of my drive home for the holidays. There is no fanbase more stupid and delusional than that of Louisiana. The same morons who ruin LSU games ruin the NFL for me every fall. Buncha dumb ass fairweathers.

I hate that team of destiny crap. Has a team who has used that to refer to their team ever won a title? The Tigers (baseball) did it in 06 and lost, the Titans did it after their miracle win and lost. I'm sure others have done it as well I just can't name them off the top of my head.

I think when you start believing your a team of destiny, you think everything will just go right for you and that will usually bite you in the ass.

Rams fans went through it, too, around '99-'02, with the whole grocery store clerk deal.

You still can't watch a Cardinals game without hearing about it at some point, like it's a reason to pull for the team or the man. It's old, and unless he's bagging groceries right now, why do we really give a damn? I'm not saying it's not a great story, because it is.... It'll be a great story the week leading up to the hall of fame induction. It's meaningless right now, because we all know who the guy is, and where he came from.

Katrina was a disaster for many many people, and it should be remembered, but to use it in sports, the way this organization/fans have been? Play the fucking game, and if you win the superbowl, then make some type of tribute. But right now? Who really cares? I'm not pulling for the team because of it. If anything, I'll laugh even harder once they lose in the postseason.

 

[steeljake]

And you're suprised the Saints lost a game? Wow....

were you dropped on your head as a child or something?

The reason i groaned you was for the fair weather comment. Well that and the LSU comment youll find alot of die hard saints fans arent really too big on the LSU group. Anyways like newkie said having our team be actually have way to great brings all those bandwagoners and people who say "well if they get their shit together then maybe ill cheer" it makes majority of us who had to sit through the bad years look like we all were like o yeah we have a football team lets cheer. I wish that the NFL would stop with the katrina talk its old and no one around here cares about so why does the NFL? Maybe in 06 it had some effect along with bringing in brees and payton, but now a days its an after though and its getting fucking old in this state. Rayman im glad you didnt play the katrina shot game because you would be dead by now trust me on that one.

El Oh El @ all the cowboys fans "Oh shaun suisham is the best kicker ever!! He only missed 3 field goals? Oh hell, he's amazing! Why would they released him?!"


Did you happen to check where he missed his field goals?

2 of his 3 misses this year were INSIDE of 39 yards. He also missed an extra point this year. Suisham is about as unreliable as they come.

In fact, of his 22 misses in his career, 7 are from inside of 39 yards. That's 32% of his misses from inside of 39 yards. For an NFL kicker, that's pathetic.

Perhaps you are also forgetting how he did last year, recording 10 of his 22 career misses.


Have fun with him cowboys. You deserve it!

Random as hell, and totally false assumption, but ok.

you on the other hand are the #2 idiot homer right behind wildcunt and just ahead of eddy B.

You forgot that BringBackJimmy guy.

 

[bucky]

Noted.

I wouldn't be shocked if Dallas lost to Philly. Where is the game being played? Dallas or Philly?

Dallas

 

[bucky]

Dallas

That should be a REALLY good game to watch. As a GB fan, I'll have to pull for Philly (also have to hope that NYG's lose a game - along w/ some GB wins). Should be an exciting 2 weeks of football.

 

[steeljake]

You forgot that BringBackJimmy guy.

his level of homerism is off the charts.

How did the team of ''destiny'' do against Tampa Bay?

Lol @ you silly bastards who believed.

One.......and done.

It makes our win look a lot weaker all of a sudden.

do you forget year to year?

while its a logical immediate assessment a team with a good record having a drop off towards the end does not mean they will do lousy in the playoffs. I aint about to predict anything-yet

 

[Nukleopatra]

I aint about to predict anything-yet

Well, you didn't, I did.

So, fuck off, you fucking douchebag.

 

[ram29jackson]

Well, you didn't, I did.

Happy New Year Nuk !

one word- Cardinals....remember?

it will be interesting to see who plays them after week one.
