You know damn well that if a customer of your business was as unhappy with you as you are with the Saints, they would simply go find another business to fill their needs.

Why don't you go do that? Go be a Chiefs fan. They have the organization you want and the championships you want. Then everyone can all be happy.

And I'm not going to ignore you. You are a pest. I'm just as committed to getting you to understand that we realize that the current iteration of the Saints are a work in progress and that nothing is going to significantly change in the next 6 months of the regular season. So, complaining about the composition of the organization, especially without any plan for correcting it (which you dodged exactly as I predicted), is a complete and utter waste of time.

You've been complaining for 2 years. Nothing about the Saints has changed in two years. So, all your complaining does is give everyone here a headache when all we want to talk about is Saints Football in whatever iteration we are operating in.

I've been going to Saints games and have been a Saints fan since 1972. I saw Archie. I was at the grand opening of the SuperDome. I've suffered the paper bag days, and the 1-15 season when the only team the Saints beat was the New York Jets one snowy Sunday in New York. I was there when the Saints won their first playoff game when Hakim dropped the ball. And followed the team after Katrina devastated the 2005 season. I sat my butt in Chicago in 2006 for the Saints first NFC championship game. And I sure celebrated when they finally won it all in 2009. And every season since up to and including last seasons 9-8 campaign.

This period is just a blip in my Saints history. And when folks keep saying that this iteration of the Saints is the worst they've ever seen, that just means they have not been around long enough to really understand what that means.

So, like Guido, and Rugs, and the others, I look at this season with an eye on improvement. This iteration of the Saints are not going 16-1, #1, NFC championship game and Super Bowl win. But if they can continue to make progress, that makes the season worth watching.

Still waiting for your list of replacements. Since you figure you can complain your way to a championship team, you can also advise Mrs. Benson on exactly how to do that too.

My job is to be as pissed off as I want, until my team wins. There are multi millionaires taking Quido’s money who are in charge of fixing this. I’m here to vent about how they are failing to do so. If you can deal with another lackluster season from our Saints, you can deal with me being pissed.

If NOT WINNING the abysmal NFC SOUTH last year is being equated to having a winning season, “blind with love” is as serious an affliction as blinded by hate.

But, great advise, SFIAH! They need to go move their "fandom" to a team that has all of the boxes which they claim to require being checked. Believe me, NONE of us would miss miss them one iota. Regardless of what they may claim they were most likely never a fan of the Saints until they won it all and now turn to hate when it hasn't quickly happened again.

If they do choose to move on all I can say is don't let that door hit you in the ass. There's plenty of real fans looking to enter that swinging door.

“hasn’t quickly happened again” … since 2010. That’s FOURTEEN YEARS.
But then again, the above quote is coming from a guy who is quoted as saying,
“Winning championships is not the goal”…

But why do you feel the need to come here and talk about being pissed? Go make your own fan haters site: blackandgoldsux.com or dennisallensux.com and you and all the other people here drinking the hateraid on a regular basis can complain to your hearts content and leave the rest of us who want to talk about Saints football here in the real world alone.

The bottom line is that you a disruptive here. There cannot be a single solitary post about anything going on with the Saints without you coming on and crapping all over it because you are pissed. So, instead of getting what you want, which is for everyone to be pissed with the Saints administration, all you get is everyone being pissed with you. We are not going to redirect our anger at how you treat this site. You are causing it because you won't shut up, and you won't leave. So, my only frustration is with you personally.

I really don't care if you are pissed or not. And dealing with you from now on is calling you out on every post you make until you, personally, outline how the Saints are going to meet your vision. You're not going to be able to come here, spew your hatred, and then hide you hands behind "It's not my job to figure it out. I'm pissed and somebody needs to fix it."

So, until you can give a set of concrete steps that the organization needs to take to fix this to your satisfaction with specific personnel to get the job done, I will keep asking the question.

Who replaces the people you want gone? Name names. Explain their vision. Show how that vision gets it done.

There are a couple of teams recently that have done what you want. The 49ers brought in John Lynch and Kyle Shannahan. Or the Detroit Lions bringing in Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell. Both have made progress. But there are zero championships between them since the Saints won in 2009.

The inept front office of the Saints clearly cannot make the moves you want to get the championship you are so desperate for. So, help them out and outline exactly who nees to get hired to get this done.

You're not just a fan, you are a complainer. You can see the problem. You complain about the problem. So, you need to fix the problem.

Take all the time you need. I'll wait.

The definition of a winning season is when the teams wins more games than it loses. It's not making the playoffs, or winning a division, or getting to a NFC championship game. Or winning a Super Bowl.

Not "blind with love". Just using the factual definition of a winning season. And that applies to the 2023 Saints.

How about I DO ME and YOU DO YOU? Let’s start from there. Meanwhile, the Niners will do what they do, the Lions will do what they do… and as long as my Saints keep doing what they do (or don’t do), I’ll complain as much as I need to.

If my complaining bothers you more than us not even being able to win the NFC SOUTH, you best set me to IGNORE. It worked wonders for Quido. 😜

I can't do me because of you. You disrupt every conversation on this site spewing your bile about how the organization is crappy and everyone needs to be fired. Then when called upon it to say "I'm a fan. It's not my problem to fix it."

And you well know that setting you to ignore is a complete waste of time. Every time anyone posts here, you follow it up. And someone is going to quote you. You are everywhere and that's the problem.

I gave you a suggestion a while ago. Have one single hateraid/fire allen/loomis thread where you can complain to your heart's content and anyone who truly wants to ignore you can simply not read the thread. Of course you rejected the idea because your objective is to inflict maximum damage upon every user of this site because the Saints can't satisfy you. BTW note that I identified a problem and proposed a solution, which is more than you have ever attempted.

The name of this thread is "Reasons to be positive." You have exactly zero positive thoughts about the Saints as currently constructed. And yet, here you are. And that's because you don't want anyone anywhere on this site to say anything other than the Saints are terrible and Allen needs to be fired.

And that's now why me doing me is following up after you. You've identified the problem. Now fix it. Who do you put in these positions so that the Saints can be the team you want them to be? A list of candidates for GM/HC/Owner/President of Football operations/QB/OC and DC would be a good start.

Still waiting on that list. And I'm not taking your lame excuse that you are just a fan and fixing it isn't your problem.

I'm not going into Training Camp, Preseason, and the Regular Season for another year with these truckfulls of horse manure from you in every thread. So, you just don't get to do you here anymore unchecked.

I want to have civil conversations here about the team I follow with people who at least hope that the team can make some progress this year. You are an impediment to that. So, add that to your list of things you need to fix.

If you can’t do you because of me, you’ve got bigger problems than our beloved Saints having another lackluster year, and that’s less of my responsibility to “fix” than trying to fix the Saints. We can certainly have a civil conversation about REALITY, but I don’t do Kumbaya. That’s just me. Again, if you can deal with another year of Dennis Allen on our sidelines, you can deal with my complaining about it (among other things). Gonna be a long season. Stocking up on low dose aspirin and cigs for sure.

I am dealing with reality. You are not. The reality is that absolutely nothing is going to change about the Saints organizational structure before January 2025. What it is now is what it's going to be.

That isn't Kumbaya. That's reality. Whether I can deal with another year of Dennis Allen on the sidelines is irrelevant. Dennis Allen is going to be the head coach of the Saints for 2024. He is going to be on the sidelines.

I think you misunderstand where I'm coming from. I'm not saying that your complaints are not valid. If the goal is to field a squad that has a realistic chance of winning a championship in it's current form, the Saints fall significantly short of that goal. And you are probably right that a change in leadership at multiple levels is likely necessary for that to be accomplished.

But none of those changes are going to happen now. The cake for 2024 is baked. If you don't like, at this point all you can do is choose not to eat it.

I'm not asking you not to be angry. I'm not asking you not to complain. All I'm asking is that you put all that vitriol in a single spot on this forum so that the rest of us who have in fact come to the acceptance phase of whatever the 2024 Saints are going to be can at least talk about it.

But as I already said, that's not your objective. Your objective is to make everyone else as angry with the Saints as you are by screaming at anyone who dares to say anything about the current construction of the team other than it needs to be blown up. Guess what? Talking about this team, in it's current form, is the entire purpose of this site. Which means that every post, every thread is a target for you. That doesn't work.

And so, since you're going to complain, I'm just going to keep asking you how do you fix it. Who do you get in here after you've blown up the team? It's the only constructive conversation I can have with you, so I will have that.

There are at least 6 leadership positions in the Saints organization that you want changed. Pick any one of them at start discussing who can fill those positions and what changes they should make. Since it isn't reality, you are free to speculate. There are a lot of football people out in the world. Talk about how some of those football people can make the Saints better instead of just complaining that the current football people in place are not good enough.

Re: Reasons To Be Positive

Good people,

I've been spending so much time dealing with Sinner, that I have not posted anything about this thread. Here are my Reasons to be positive:

1. The Saints No fly Zone secondary is back in full effect. The team is smart to continue to reload in this area.

2. The tackle position has been upgraded. It'll be interesting to see how KK's scheme functions with this O-line.

3. TH7 seems poised to be the Ultimate Weapon in this new offense. I hope that we see him on the field a lot more than in Carmichael's scattered scheme.

4. While the first 6 games are front loaded with the Cowgirls, Eagles, and Chiefs, it also has 3 division games which if the Saints can dominate like they did the last 3 division games of last season, would put them in a good position with a much lighter 11 games on the backend.
