How about bag hats with the letters RG ! The full bag was hard to breathe in.

I'm diggin' it. How about an addition? Use the letters RG on one side and the NFL logo on the other. I am more embarrassed to be a fan of professional football than the Saints' season right now with this horrible officiating.

No bags. Ask yourself how would you feel wearing a bag over your head if Steve Gleason was sitting right next to you. Because that is the kind of team we are now.

Also--the bags thing at the time was to say WE ARE ASHAMED TO BE SEEN supporting this team. There is nothing about the 2012 Saints to be ashamed of, or embarrassed about.. We are short two coaches, a GM, draft picks and several important players because of TEMPORARY sanctions that Rodger Goodell levied against the team. It's not like the front office said "we are firing Payton Vitt and Loomis and bringing in Kromer and all these other guys because we think they're better." If you're in the stands, you're not getting the product you paid for and were promised by the league back in February when you sent in your season ticket money. We're not even remotely close to full strength. If the sucking were totally unexplainable, if it was NORMAL, the best product that the team could field at full strength, then the bag heads might have an argument to break them out.

May be a little heavy, but that's what I would do, if a co-worker starting ribbing me about the bags -- instead of getting mad, I'd say, "No, no bags, we are a different team nowadays, just wait" and then I'd teach them about Steve Gleason and No White Flags and about ALS.

Maybe bags were the thing of the early years. That was my fathers (rest his soul) Saints.
It's not the same team, and to do that im my humble opinion is to disrepect the current team.
Once again my opinion and I will not be wearing a bag.
Mainly because it would look stupid being stationed Virginia...

No need for bags, really we won a Superbowl. I cant seem to think the cards did.

Re: Bags
 

No Bags, Please? Or do we need 2 bags, one for us & one for the players?

Re: Bags
 

Agree, the bag era is completely over. It was a fitting response at the time to poor ownership, coaching, and player performance. It was a joke that fit the situation. That's not what's going on here.

Re: Bags
 

Not sure if this is true or not, but it is a great story!!

Back in the Aints era, a Saints ticket holder didn't want to go to a game, so he left his ticket on the dash of his car with the windows rolled down while he went in a store to shop.

When he came back, there were 6 more tickets on the dash!!

I remember once Billy Joe Tolliver finally won a game, finally! He had an unbelievable game, I think it was against the 49ers. After the game he said these are good times. Really? Good times? Then I started thinking about the bags and said you know what, you are right.
