We all do what we can. I attended the vast majority of games for over a decade and even flew across the country for a couple games a year when I was father away. I attended the Super Bowl, the No Call game, and the game where Brees broke the passing record. Plus, do I really want to pay, not just $200 or whatever for a ticket, but another $500 for a flight, to watch DA and Carr try to shock the world by rising to 1-1 against Baker Mayfield or surviving an epic clash with Gardner Minshew? Unless I am in town anyway, thats a hard sell to watch the greatest show on chopping wood.

I did attend the preseason game against the Chargers last season. I would have liked to attend the regular season game against the Rams but a weeknight game just before Christmas was difficult timing. The game started at 515PM PST so I would have had to take time off work to get into the stadium on time. I planned to go if the team was on a role but 11 days before the game the Saints were 5-7 and when they made it back to 7-7 four days before the game, it was a little late to request time off work.

“to watch DA and Carr try to shock the world by rising to 1-1 against Baker Mayfield or surviving an epic clash with Gardner Minshew?”

You’d have to add a whole lotta crack and Xanax to your tab, in order for that to even begin to be fun…

So, in other words, you have no real knowledge of what the Superdome's actual reactions were during games this season, correct?

As someone that was actually there I can tell you that Carmichael was highly criticized by the fans in attendance, far more so than the isolated booing from the handful of drunk idiots.

Bako, what Quid Kumbaya is trying to tell you, is if you were sitting with him puffing the same peace pipe, it would have appeared like we won our pathetic division, when we actually didn’t.

Personally I'd love for the new offensive staff to bring Penning up to par. I wouldn't mind if we do take a tackle though. I always trust their judgement better than any of ours. They do have far greater insight.

Same mismanagement, different pawns. Their insight couldn’t win the NFC SOUTH DIVISION this past season. Our next season is going to be a mess, and you’ll be chalking it up to “making adjustments during our indefinite REBUILD phase”.
Put the crack pipe down.

I'd be shocked if the Saints are even remotely interested in OBJ.

Especially after all of the Mike Thomas drama.

Go draft another WR.
