That does not diminsh the fact that this is the best Forum and the best Fans! Halo thanks for the quality years and giving us a place to express our many frustrations and now finally our joy!

Watching the Saints win the super bowl, and going through Eli, Brady, Favre, Warner, and Manning to do it, is the most amazing thing since my daughter was born, and she, at 4 years old, had a big hand in making the 'super bowl nachos', as she called them. :-)

It was a great ride, made even better by being able to come here and share it with the likes of ForeverFan, Skymike, Exile, Danno, Papz, CharamieIII, Joanientx, Breesfan, UK_WhoDat, Saint_LB, Strato, CantonLegend, FireVenturi, B_Dub_Saint, Pakowitz, Turbo Saint, and so many others I've come to know through our Saints home on the internet.

Thank you Halo, for making this place what it is today. What a ride!

WHO DAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

I've been her since November and I have to say this is the best Saints forum out there. With the exception of the trolls, there are a ton of amazing people here and they are all very knowledgeable. (sp) Thank you to everyone who made this site possible.

Re: Attention: B&G Members

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

I sometimes worry that I spend too much time on this site. Not only do I have a life, I have about 4 lives--- 5 kids, my unusual day job, my wedding biz, my bizarre assortment of family & friends, & hobbies...

But this in no ordinary website. This is not a bunch of basement trolls playing "pwn you," and randomly wasting time with idiocy. blackandgold.com is exactly what I wanted from my old fan site, but didnt get. It is an online tailgate party. We can, and have used it as a social organizer, and a uniter of fans.

For instance, we were prepared to fight the NFL's recent WhoDat controversy, by beginning an unusual protest which I am certain would have attracted much attention. I also know you had much to do with keeping fans up to date and involved back in '05, when N.O. was in danger of losing the team.

A good number of us are real life friends now, and while most of this will always be online, I believe the real-life contact & activity generated from this site will grow, until, who knows? We could someday become a Mardi Gras krewe.

This is why the drama & hate found on the rest of the net is much, much smaller here. You are a real person. People know your face. You are responsible for your words. I am going to propose some ideas soon, which could strenghthen the "real life" factor. This might make B&G less interesting to the casual net surfer looking for Jerry Springer type entertainment, but could, in my mind, make us a true media factor. We deserve to be.

Thanks, Halo. The Celebration has just begun.

Say it ain't so.... LOL :D

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

Thanks... We love Zooey Too! :bng:

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

It's the only message board I've ever been a part of - for a reason.

Thanks to everyone who have contributed to the site.

Looking back, this Saints season was historic in many ways and it truly was the ride of a lifetime.

WHO DAT!!

I thought my forum days were done but this is a good crew with a deep love for not only the Saints but also the city of New Orleans and the game of football. Enjoyed meeting a lot of you this weekend. Hopefully we can do it again next year. Looking forward to the home opener already, where we will be introduced as the DEFENDING SUPERBOWL CHAMPIONS!!!

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

by the way, you were completely right about Pat O's. It was as much of a mosh pit as Bourbon St. Next time I'll listen more carefully to you!

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

This site is somewhat addictive. The people who post here are very sharp and know their stuff. What a great place to be a part of.

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

Totally agreed. I have been on this board for a long time, though I am like a ghost when the season is on, I usually come here to talk Saints Football in the offseason when my friends look at me like I'm crazy because I'm jonesing for football talk in March.

But this isn't just any Saints message board. This is a place with some of the best fans and best discussion on the net. All of my local friends are recent fans, no one was much into football until right before the Drew Brees era. This win was big for them, but I know it means much much more to the tried and true fans here.

I revel in sharing this victory with all of you, since of everyone I know, it means the most to the people here. Cheers to you all my friends, we have waited long and faithfully, and now our Saints and Super Bowl Champions!

GEAUX SAINTS!

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

I know I just joined in November, but I feel a kinship here that I haven't found elsewhere on the internet. I can tell I'm going to be a regular here for a long time.

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

Everybody loves Zooey. What's not to love?

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

I absolutely loved her in Yes Man. I mean, a lot of people playing her character might have annoyed me in that movie, which had some political elements I was not a fan of--- but she & Jim Carrey were so charming, I could nonetheless enjoy it---

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

I am bumping this cos the OP comments still apply. WHO DAT!

Re: Attention: B&G Members

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

B&G...uniting Saints fans around the globe!

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

It is merely a forum. I don't get all giddy about forums. Sorry.

It might have something to do with the fact that I've built web sites since the mid 90s and I don't get emotionally attatched to digital stuff.

I feel the same way about cell phones. Many people today think their cell phone is their friend and not a damn phone.

This is a nice place. That is far as I can go and remain honest.

Two Dat.

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

I need a new site built..

Weren't you a Tibetan goat herder at one time? I'm pretty sure I saw you hanging with the Dalai Lama out on the banks of the Yangtze back before the war...

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

I dont think most of us wear the right kind of underwear to be labeled as "giddy."

We are exuberant -- in the most masculine, non-giddy way, to have a good community of fellow Saints fans to hang with. Obviously, it takes a special kind of fan to root for a team with the history and curse we have dealt with for so long, and there werent a lot of us back then.

So yeah, Im rather merry meeting fellow longsufferers. In fact, I lenjoy the gay (in the old meaning of the word gay) rhetoric around here, as opposed to the flippant prissyness of the rest of the net. So if I get a little fluttery and daffy in the presence of my online pals, I aint sorry for it, ok? Look at me. Dont I look giddy?

I would say this site is something special, and Halo should be commended for making it happen, and preserving the atmosphere. We're gonna have more fun this year.

Re: Attention: B&G Members
 

Hold the phone. Did everyone just get along on this thread? We gotta mark this down on a calendar! :p

Re: Attention: B&G Members

Re: Attention: B&G Members
