As for myself, I'd MUCH rather be competitive for 10 years without a title guarantee than win a title and rebuild for ten years. Saints football for me is entertainment. A lifestyle. We buy those tickets and go to every home game to have fun and be entertained. If along the way we catch enough breaks to win it all great, but winning it all isn't worth it if it means spending a decade watching non-competitive football and winning a handful of games, at best, every year just hoping to get back to winning it all again someday.

It would be so depressing knowing that my season was always going to be just 17 games long with no chance at a Super bowl. I want another Lombardi for the trophy case but I also want the respect that winning brings. Errrrr....... never mind. We were winners with Sean and Drew but never got any respect. So, there's that. Nonetheless, I would rather have the option to win a championship if the ball bounces my way like it did in 2009.

Believe me, nothing is more depressing than paying $7 grand for season tickets knowing your team has little to no chance to win the game because they are going through a massive tear down and rebuild process that has no guarantee of being a success. Give me the ongoing joy of being competitive every week over one fleeting championship per decade.

Maybe true, but they didn't run away from the game and site because of those topics, it was you. Although, I honestly hate to encourage you. Please be honest with yourself, just once.

sub, there's only one person that I know of that left the site strictly because of me. That person spent almost 3/4th's of a year acting like a ten-year-old replying to every post I made with childish nonsense amounting to hundreds of replies. The only ones I saw personally were when other members replied to them usually asking him to please stop. Several members that were complaining about the constant harassments finally quit coming to the site because of that member. When that member was finally discovered to have been what appeared to be cyberstalking and spreading lies he was asked by forum management to please refrain from the harassments. He reportedly refused and decided to instead leave the forum forever.

Can we not just be Saints fans and get along? Sure, there's going to be disagreements. There are on every forum site.
