OR we could suck at our current level, and remain at our current draft level, while retaining our substitute Head Coach… Which would you prefer?

I clearly said in the other thread (the one I started in which you passive aggressively responded but did not answer the question posed) that I want them to win the NFCS. That clearly is not wanting better draft positioning. Secondly, I wasn’t bringing up San Fran as an example for ANYTHING. I made a factual comment in a discussion going on about Purdy, Haener, the recent Niner success and their perceived commitment to winning. I (again 100 percent accurately) noted that the Niners had a fairly recent losing period (especially compared to the Saints) that aided their success. I also (again factually) pointed out that the Saints have performed “well” enough that they did not build that type of draft capital. You directly respond to me in a smart-ass manner falsely claiming I was endorsing a tanking plan of some type. That’s textbook being triggered. You know you can set me to ignore if my posts bother you so much. |

I comprehend that. So I am left to assume that if we continue to perform “well enough” to NOT be in a Niners type of draft position, (and probably just well enough to keep Dennis Allen around as Head Coach), you’ll be happy. Yes?

I (like Guido) want the saints to win every game. Unlike him I don’t say I expect them to. I want them to win a second SB. But I realize the difficulties in doing so and that some factors are out of a team’s control. I want them 20-0. But I’d rather them 16-1 than 13-4. Rather them 13-4 than 10-7. 10-7 rather than 6-9. 6-9 rather than 2-15. I wasn’t happy when Payton had a three year 7-9 run. But I would have been less happy with multiple 3-13 records. By necessity, the first step in winning the SB is making the playoffs. Hopefully that means winning the division. Again, when I brought this up in another thread, you questioned my manhood. Not sure why my point of view brings this type of response from you. |

I do what I do. If you are willing to give the Saints (MIS)management a pass for doing what they do, you can allow a disgruntled fan to vent in our Saints Forum, or you can scroll past my comments, or you can set me to IGNORE. There is no reason to get hostile with me.

Re: Official 2024 Saints OTA News and Discussion
Yes, but the only way you seem to propose doing this is tearing down the organization from the top down (sell the team, fire the general manager and president, replace the coach, bring in all new players, coaches, and general management in order to improve the team.)
It's annoying because none of that is going to happen. Ms. Benson isn't going sell. She already has her succession plan in place. She's not going to fire either Lauschia or Loomis. Loomis continues to see improvement with the team with Allen. He's had 2 opportunities to let him go and has declined twice. He's here in 2024 and with just moderate improvement of a game or 2 and a playoff berth will be around for the foreseeable future. So, your continued complaining about all the top brass in the Saints organization is an exercise in futility. While it's fine to point it out once in a while, this continued whining every day in every thread that you've been assaulting us with for 2 years with these continued calls that we just all want mediocrity when in fact folks here just taking a situation that they understand isn't going to change significantly and hoping to make the best of it, is quite annoying. And don't bother to call to put you on ignore. You are the antithesis/evil twin of Guido in that you're going to pop up in everyone's replies if you are on their ignore list or not. And because your posts are so persistent, so annoying, and so provocative, other folks like Boston will feel compelled to reply. Isn't it exhausting coming here every day and screaming at the Gulf to dry up? Whether we put you on ignore or not, no one in the Saints organization is going to change the vision any time soon. A vision that my brother reminded me this week has been nearly 20 years of competitive football with 0 seasons of less than 7 wins since 2006. Back in the day when we were kids such a stretch would have been unimangineable. I know I doing as you, screaming in the storm with no hope for change. But understand this is why Guido, and Boston, and me, and others keep pushing back on your futile negativity. We are all hoping that the Saints will be better within the existing construct of the organization. Your wanting to blow it all up isn't going to happen any time soon unless the organization has a season or two of abject failure. None of us want that. But it sure seems like you do. So, why is it that you want a team that you supposedly support and want to be successful to fail miserably just in order to get the changes you want? SFIAH |
