THIS THURSDAY

Y’all have to admit that IF we somehow pull off a win AT HOME, against the favored JAGS, it would be a freaky anomaly, based on what we’ve seen, and a whole lotta fun for us… and yes, I am officially classified as a Negasaint since last year, when I was begging for DA to go back to what he was doing before, and allow a more competent and characteristic Head Coach to lead this team. I didn’t complain about our ongoing sketchy QB situation, injuries, penalties, or any of the factors that contributed to our losing, but the FIRE was/is missing, except from a few truly amazing Players (who are not being properly utilized/coached)… and that makes me mega-nega.

That being said, NOTHING would make me happier than seeing my Saints play more inspired football consistently, and put me back on my low dose aspirin and cigarettes to ride the crazy rollercoaster that used to be Saints Games.

Let the record state: I WANT US TO WIN… or at least keep the game interesting while we rebuild.

WHODAT!

Just don't tell management we're rebuilding. It triggers them!

What lost revenue? Sold out for the year. The dome has been packed so far this season. I know. I've been there and will be there tomorrow.

Re: THIS THURSDAY

Ticket sales are not most of the revenue! Do some homework! No one wants to wear a losing teams merchandise! If you hurt your possible future fan base that’s revenue!!!

The league shares that revenue. That's the catch and why all teams make money regardless of how they are doing in any given year. That said, I'm buying my merchandise whether we are 17-0 or 0-17. I buying because it is my team and I am a fan.

Um. Maybe you should wake up, Cher. I repeat, merchandise sales are shared revenue among all 32 franchises. Team X fans can buy 100,000 jerseys and Team Y fans can buy 10, but both franchises get the same 1/32 share of the total.

Translation: We need a new Head Coach.
