I've always hated pre-season, but this year, after all the offseason drama, I'm actually looking forward to watching a bunch of no names flying around and having no clue what they're doing, and also watching the starters play five minutes of not giving a crap... Yep, this year pre-season is a beautiful thing.

I'm not looking forward to the every 30 seconds referencing to bountygate that is sure to come. But if the Saints play the way we all expect this year, those people will learn to shut it.

DAMN I needed to add a poll.

How many times will we hear a reference to the following:

Bounty gate
Katrina
Microphones in the Dome

Oh yeah, I forgot about the wire tapping. So not only will we hear jokes every time our defense is on the field, but when our offense scores they'll probably say we're eavesdropping on the opposing defense.

As for the number of times we might hear it, I don't know, but I'd guess at least two times per quarter all season we'll hear a reference to one of the above options... That would be 128 times in the regular season alone, lol.

If we're dropping 40+ on teams; I could careless how many times I hear it... They either love us or love to hate us!

Seriously I am not so sure if the wiretapping is going to get much play by commentators during the games this year, because if you remember, as soon as Benson and Loomis announced they were lawyering up to protect their names, and as soon as Lee Zurick outed the name of the person responsible for the accusations and a bunch of the real info on his termination by the Saints, the whole wiretapping story kind of went poof into the ozone. Mention it on the air at your own peril, I'd say. Benson's lawyers will be listening. Remember what happened to Sapp for saying uncorroborated stuff on television.

I do agree with everybody though. I'm kind of looking forward to being hated.

Ok, anyone else see the Cardinals offense #1 and their pass offense #1? Or am I simply imagining things?

Please report to the restroom to pee in a bottle.

I saw the same thing

Can I postpone for a week or two?

Ok... What did I miss/ Where are the Cards ranked #1 in offense, they do not even know who their regular season QB will be yet.

its only a preseason dress out but i'm as nervous as it would be a playoff game. its the SAINTS BABY. somebody slap me ah.
