We DESERVE this win
 
I've lived through the…
Willie Anderson led comeback… Carney's miss…
Being called an 'Aints fan… Marshawn Lynch's run… Alex Smith's run...
Aaron Brooks' backward pass… The Home Game in NY… The Cleveland Hail Mary…
Mike Ditka…
Deuce tearing his ACL… Deuce tearing his ACL…
Being a 12-4 wild card team… Diddly Poo…
Albert Connell… Carney's miss…
Our first playoff game was b/c HAKIM DROPPED THE BALL.
The Championship season was great but remember, the league changed the rules because we BEAT BRETT FAVRE in OT…
Then hit us with BountyGate… Leaving me with a feeling like we got lucky.

There are more that I choose to forget…
But the fact remains… We deserve a signature win.
NO QUESTIONS asked.
This is another game we AREN'T supposed to win. The Colts game was SUPER, but the odds were never THIS stacked against us.
I hope our boys pull it through. It's self serving...
For all the years my Saints gear was laughed at…

But then again, as Clint Eastwood wrote in "The Unforgiven"
"Deserved's got nothing to do with it."
So I wish our boys good luck… They play for more than is in they game plan.

We owe SEA. NFL channel did a segement on the loss in the 2011 playoff game -- where they talked about the Skittles run registering on the Richter scale as an earthquake. It was humiliating. We owe Seattle. If it is AT ALL possible for this team to beat them, I can assure you we will.

I don't think it as much as owing them as much as it is assuring our own nerve packed nation that the future is bright.... This is a statement I would love for them to make....

When Hakim dropped the ball, and yelled so loud that my baby son, who was sitting next to the TV, burst into tears. He's 17 now and watches games with me still. I think that's a very Saints - fan way to grow up.

In '09 I felt like we "deserved" more than history gave us.

This year I think the team owes it to themselves to go out and execute to their abilities.

Do that, we silence a lot of critics.

You don't get what you deserve in sports you get what you take.

This is exactly what I was thinking. If we don't go out there and win it...then we don't deserve it.

No such thing as "due" or "deserved". There is only what you take as lee909 said. As far as for all of the whining I hear from fans of most teams (including ours) that they do not get this "respect"..

School girls care and whine about what everyone thinks of them.
