Even as forlorn as you envision our Saints today, there's no reason to expect them to be as bad as you imagine for the next decade or more to come. If we were to give up our tickets as some sort of protest we may not be alive when the next opportunity to get them back arises.

Look back at the 1980 season when Buddy "D" called upon fans to boycott the games or in other words forfeit their game tickets. The fans refused en masse. It was then that Buddy "D" proposed the wearing of bags instead. Win or lose those ticket holders valued their seats too much to give them up. It's the very same now.

It is so easy give up something you do not have personally to hope to make a point.

Given the fact is that there is nothing either you or I can do personally that will affect the success or failure of the Saints I will gladly keep doing what I'm doing. I am impressed that you finally understand.

Given the fact that you value your season tickets more than AFFECTING CHANGE through NON PARTICIPATION, your masochism and Stockholm syndrome fail to impress… woefully.

LOL!!! You are so disconnected, dude. My season tickets are infinitely more valuable to me after 15 years than any unrealistic dream of yours that by forfeiting them I could have any affect on the decision making of the Saints' management.

You are so out of shift with reality that it is comical. LOL!!!

You need to figure out something that YOU can do, if you are so committed, that will have some sort of impact. Give up begging those of us that have what you don't to fight your battle against those imagined windmills.

You don’t understand the “reality” of basic Business. Economics. Supply and Demand. You either boycott a sh*t product, and the owner is forced to do whatever it takes to win back Customer Loyalty though Customer Satisfaction, or you remain satisfied with a sh*t product, and the owner (and management) will continue to get paid (YOUR MONEY) to deliver more sh*t. You don’t have to be an idiot and a masochist, to remain a Fan. You can DEMAND to be satisfied with your team’s performance, unless you’re an idiot and a masochist. You actually have way more (purchasing) power than you give yourself credit for.

Oh yeah… and WE NEED A NEW HEAD COACH… like, LAST YEAR.

You've been muted again, Sinner. Live in your own little world.

Edit: Or maybe that should be Alonso. LOL!!!
