Re: Fan Or Fanatic?

I'm a recovering fanatic.

I used to eat, drink, and breathe everything Saints and NFL related but life after marriage and mortgage got crazy and my focus has been on many other things.

Re: Fan Or Fanatic?

You don't survive the A. Manning, K. Stabler and Richard Todd era's as a fanatic, that would be Lunacy....One would have to be a true fan, or just crazy....I fall into the crazy, FAN side but not fanatic, as I have learned over the years...success can be fleeting.

Re: Fan Or Fanatic?

Does getting a fleur de lis tattoo make me a fanatic?

So long as it's not in the small of your back, you can still check the fan box...

In another lifetime, worked at hospital in NoLa; two of the traveler nurses dated Saints players and they got matching Saints Tramp Stamps done...

At this point, fan. I perhaps was fanatic at one time, but am getting too old for the stress.

Used to be a fanatic. More of a fan now. Life, family and the invasion of politics into sports have pushed down the importance of Saints football and other sports for me.

Re: Fan Or Fanatic?

Probably a fan. I'm usually not unbearable after a loss, even a bad one. But I have a sentimental streak about sports and tend to get emotionally invested at times. I mean, tonight I am getting almost choked up wondering if I just watched Federer's last Wimbledon, with all of the memories of the last 20 years just rushing back into my head. 😢 Paralells with Brees' last game?

I am a full blown fanatic! I used to be a football fanatic but as you mentioned the invasion of politics shot that to hell. I don't watch football anymore but I wouldn't miss a moment of of a Saints game to go outside and get paid. I love the Saints but hate what Godhell has done to the game.

I'm a fanatical Who Dat for life and my house is visible from outer space. Just look for the fleur de lis.
