Re: The Official: Time to 'fess-up' THREAD...
 
So this one afternoon... The Titans are checking in... All the starters like to use the service elevator (in the kitchen, for room service) for a private elevator...

Here comes the smallest head I've ever seen on a human being... Eddie George, and MY MAN from back in the early '90's, LORENZO NEAL. "LO"

I'm chattin' "LO"'s azz off about how I saw him carry a PILE of Falcons in the Georgia Dome back in (I don't know), '93(?) when I'm sitting right on the FIFTY...

TROPHY George feels like a HEEL. Ignored. We ride up to the 5th floor and I press "CLOSE DOOR" and carry my azz back to work...

MAN... THOSE DAYS...

... those are some great tales, Alaska, :lol: ... I wonder how many times you heard this conversation in KC last season:

Asst Coach #1: "Remember that banquet chef who made those corn waffles for the Eagles?"

Asst Coach #2: "Yup"

Asst Coach #1: "Wonder what he's doing now ..."

Asst Coach #2: "Don' know"

Asst Coach #1: "We coulda' used that guy today"

Asst Coach #2: "Yup".

I thought we'd win our first game after that damn kick off return to start it all off.
I thought Dempsey would miss that field goal. Hell we all did.
I thought Archie was the wrong pick. I wanted LSU to re-break his arm during that 63-17 arse whippen we put on them when he was at Ole Miss. Never famous but one of the most loved Saints of all time and he showed me that he had alot of guts and endurance for sure.
I didn't think Payton was going to be a good coach.
I thought that on side kick was stupid. Until we recovered the ball.

Okay, some more:
Still hate the Steelers

Grew up in Browns' country and was born at the tail end of their glory days.

Still don't see Dempsey's half shoe as any kind of advantage. The dude only has half a foot for cryin' out loud!

I knew he was gonna make that kick. I was fourteen at the time and was forever a Saints fan after that.

My dad took me to several doctors after that field goal to see if I could be cured of my Who Dat love. He would've gone as far as electro-shock therapy if my mom hadn't caught him and made him put the extension cord away.

Knew for a fact that Schottenheimer couldn't have won a playoff game, even with the '72 Dolphins. Had myself a couple to celebrate when Payton was picked instead of him.

Marty would show up in the lounge of the visiting team's hotel (MARRIOTT OVERLAND PARK) and try to pick up chicks. NO SHAT. My wife (at the time) was a cocktail waitress.

Another NO SHATTER - So my wife waits on Jake Plummer and some hooker and he's trying to impress her at the end of the night and my woman asks who 's room the bill will go to... ---- well, she has no idea who Jake Plummer is... so he's GROPING this girl and pauses to say, "Plummer's room". My wife breaks out in laughter at him and says, "ARE YOU ***IN' SERIOUS?" LOL "WHO'S THE PLUMMER?".

He compained, and she ALMOST LOST HER JOB OVER THAT ONE... LOLOOLOOLLOOLLLL

I am going to roll my Top 5 into 1...

The hiring, (and not firing), of Carl Smith as Offensive Coordinator during the Mora years.

I know the Saints didn't have a lot of offensive firepower back then, but with the Dome Patrol, with a more aggressive OC, the Saints should have, at the least, made it to the divisional or conference round of the playoffs.

I still think a Super Bowl appearance would not have been out of the realm of possibility during that time with that team.

Thought Stallworth was the next Moss
Did not like the signing of SP as head coach (ouch!)
Thought Brooks was going to be a very good QB
Thought Bush would be a superstar (or basically Sproles)
Thought Boo Williams was going to become a good tight end

1. It was much, much, MUCH different to win a normal championship in those days. The rules were different.

2. There never was such thing AS the "super bowl".

3. The steelers in those days were not the steelers. At times I think they were even called the Pittsburgh pirates and the "steagles".

The point is the steelers were as much the steelers as the Cleveland browns are the Baltimore ravens.

I give the steelers a pass. There were a LOT of good teams then and they were new.

I was just pointing out how dumb it is how people say we were a bad franchise.

We weren't

We had TWO bad decades(70s and 90s and they weren't that bad since we had archie manning and the browns and bucs had meh) but in another decade we're the greatest linebacking corps ever and in another we're technically the greatest NFC team ever. You call that bad?

The 9ers had TWO bad decades too. (70s and 2000s) yet the 9ers are the pride and joy of the nfl cause they got 4 super bowls in a decade when there were basically no other good teams but they're the pride and joy of the NFL? BS
Hard for me to look at anything before 1970 as well.

Before the merger, I believe it was a much easier time to win titles than when the merge happened.

Just about every team prior to the merger won a title it seems, their was no competition or less of it in that period, especially when you go back before the 1960s.

I thought Mike McCarthy was the worst offensive coordinator ever. What's that say about the qb and offense we had at the time.
I thought Tom Benson would sell the Saints by now.
I thought Jim Mora would be the best coach we would have.
I thought the 2009 NFC Championship game was called by competant refs.
I thought we would have had a second Dome Patrol by now...
