C'mon guys 3pm games are awesome. I prefer them. Quit being so self centered. 3pm games are probably ALOT louder giving us a better home feild advantage.I will take whats good for the team over what is conveininet for me any day. I have always loved the late games anyway.Gives me time to sleep in and get to the game at my own pace

In terms of crowd noise in the Dome, my feeling on it has always been


7 PM Game > 3 PM game > noon game

Night games are typically the loudest/craziest, and I think the Saints respond to it and play better at night....sometimes I kinda wish they ALL could be night games. The way I look at it, every hour spent drinking before the game, ups the noise potential by +1 dB per fan.

So I like a 3 PM kickoff just fine...gives the fans a chance to get a good leisurely head of steam (or should I say "suds") going before the kickoff... I bet Champions Square will be rocking. Plus, looking forward, a lot of people expect to have a light week at work ahead this next week; that week of Thanksgiving, nothing much ever gets done in a lot of places, so people will be ready to start the party rolling on Sunday.

I prefer the 3 oclock games. It gives me a chance to get some things done and prepare the grill for half time. This week I'll be boarding a cruise that leaves a 4 oclock......that sucks. Hopefully I'll be able to get on board in time to watch kick off.

It is a special package we can purchase from DirecTV that gives us HD access to every game played on Sunday, including a game mix channel showing eight games all on one screen (works well with a very large screen :D ) and the Red Zone channel.

Explained ^. I can tell you - UK doesn't get Sunday Ticket

Sunday ticket, sigh!!!!!!!!! If only we could get that, it sounds amazing!

The only way I follow the Saints games is by purchasing field pass on NFL.com. Then I can tune into Saints radio and watch the little game graphics on NFL.com at the same time. I must admit I do enjoy the two guys that commentate, they really know their game and are quite entertaining to listen to.

GEAUX SAINTS! WHO DAT!

Probably need a hug after that, huh?

If you can ever get to Shreveport/Bossier in Louisiana I will gladly welcome you into our home and we'll watch a game the right way!

Open invitation.
