Well I am so glad to hear that from you. I too no matter what people think of our guys in Black N Gold I will always have faith in them. Yeah sure I get dissapointed in them but don't we have a right too? I love them and I have my white nissan Sentra covered in New Orleans Saints. Yes thats right I call it my Saqints mobile and is very proud to sport that baby around. Go check out myspace page my name is carlene duet you'll see with your own eyes.

I look forward to this each week. Great stuff Hagan...

Nicely put. They are like a strange marriage. Each person feeding of the other. For the good and the bad.
I sold those paper bags at the dome as a kid. But I never wore one. I thought it was disrespectful to the team. But a buck was a buck. Idiots spent a $1.50 on a 5 Cent bag and that included the maker and the time to make it. Looking back on it now it also tells alot about the type of fans we had then and well still do.
Booing seems to in fashion. I was brought up it was something negative you did to the refs and the opposing teams. If your team is struggling it was up to the fans to help the team as best as they could to turn things around. Cheering them to victory no matter what. Yep I sound like a RUDDY movie I know but that is what a fan is all about. The 12th man lifts the teams spirit in times of need. Booing at the drop of a hat makes wonder why these people even come to the games. Are they there out of love for the team or because having tickets is in fashion? I am going with fashion. Most will be the first let there season tickets go when the team heads south. You know those fans with a bag on their heads back then were probably better fans than most of the Boo birds we have today.
Nice blog Sapper.

Taylor Melhaff is the dudes name and hoculi should be givin the next 2 weeks off he has really cost teams games i couldn't beleive the calls he missed!!! players have to execute but i'm blamming that vikes game on ED and jason david...i'd rather have fred thomas and his q-tip arm cast back there then JD

well it is time to see if this kid is any better

Hey, 1 wish out of 2 granted ain't half bad!

If we're going to miss kicks like that, at least let it be the rookie. It's disappointing that a seasoned vet let Martin continues to help us lose games weekly. I bet everytime someone passes him in the locker room they just want to give him a backhand.

You can tell he has a strong leg... but it's of no use if he can't kick it in between the uprights. It's time to move on... he's had more than one chance to redeem himself. I will be extremely surprised and baffled if he's still on this roster come Sunday.

Saints fire Gramatica and brings in Melhaff to start practicing with Weatherford.

I hear Tampa Bay laughing from all the way up here.

Taylor Malhoff from Wisconsin. Let's get him back!

What's the name of that kicker from pre-season?

Haluchi needs to be investigated.

I also wanted to point out another thing... look at where all these analyst are coming from. They're all coming from the Pac-10, Big Ten, Big 12, and the ACC. You wonder why there's so much media bias.

You rarely see the media ride LSU's coat tail as they do USC and Ohio State over the years... even after 2 National Championships. They all picked tOSU to stomp on the Tigers last year and we all saw what happened. USC over the past 3 years... loses to Oregon State, Stanford, and Oregon State. Enough said.

It's a given the SEC is the best conference... why they continue to call USC and Ohio State the best team in NCAA football boggles my mind. I don't mind being in the shadows... but enough with "They're the best team ever!" BS every single year.

No. 1 goes down: Oregon State holds off top-ranked USC

Hey Lou in your face

Usc lost too hardy har har!

Dr. Lou lost his damn mind along time ago... piss on ESPN and the pushing of certian teams, ie. USC Notre Dame Michigan and Ohio State...

LOL I know what you mean. His hay days are long past along with sanity.

nice. But i have no problem with Porter getting mentioned. Unlike most positions CB is the one that requires very thick skin and short memory. even porter called himself out in the locker room. That to me is a good thing. That is what you want a rookie to do.

Not bad Canton. good luck
