You know, this "dropped ball" excuse seems to be brought up mockingly pretty often. Maybe we should look at the timing of the dropped balls. If the Saints had been dropping balls on 1st and 2nd down........and yet the drives continued moving forward as a result of converting on 3rd down, then I guess there really coudln't be anything said. But how many times last year did we see Joe Horn (great as he is), Donte', Jerome Pathon, Boo Williams, and whomever else drop potential first-down catches and absolutely kill a drive?

If he doesn't goof up, we stand a great chance of winning...

You said you are happy when we win...

Therefore, by the transitive property, if he doesn't goof up, you should be happy.

In conclusion, to bring more joy in your life and to bring your blood pressure down, maybe you should root for him not to goof up. However, you don't seem to be doing so.

That's like saying if medical school was easy, we'd all be doctors. Medical school isn't easy, and AB will goof up. Thus, my we will not be able to win WITH HIM stance.

Absotively.

Refer back to first response: and AB will goof up. Thus, my we will not be able to win WITH HIM stance.

Timing? Well, they usually arrive a split second before the safety creams our receiver. :p

But if that happens, we won't be here. We'll all be in Detroit.

yasoon 08-26-2005 01:13 PM

I will be in Detroit....regardless of cost. It will never happen. But if it does, I will be there and I will be naked and drinking purple haze.....oh, glory day.

:patos:

BlackandBlue 08-26-2005 01:16 PM

Guess I'll have someone to drink with.

I've always said that if the Saints make it to the Super Bowl, I would go, regardless of the cost or location. My friends agree, it would be a once in a lifetime opportunity :crying:
