I really think this Panthers' team is being a tad bit overhyped here. They were the worst team in the league last year by a decent margin. They've done little to improve much. They just claimed six players off of waivers meaning they have to cut six players from their 53 man roster to make room. Three of the six were CB's. We should win this game and win it easily. Yet I expect our Saints to come out firing on all cylinders.

Based on your perspective, and everything you wrote, if we LOSE this one…
DAT BE SOME BAD NEWS.

Of course it would be bad news. So would a asteroid hitting the Superdome during the game. (Damn! My wife and I would be dead.) Neither are expected unless you are extremely pessimistic.

Are you hoping we lose just so you can say, "I told you so?" Can you not ever hope for the best?

I can handle bad news if it happens, but I see nothing to gain by obsessing over the possibility.

An asteroid would be different. That wouldn’t happen because of us $ucking badly… at least I hope not. Sincerely.

Anyway, as I’ve written in another thread, even after an asteroid strike, Dennis Allen would still be Head Coach, so you’d be cool.

I really don't care who's coach. That's above my pay scale as a fan. I'm simply going to support my team no matter what. If Allen was fired tomorrow I'd throw my support to the team just as heartily. You see, I know I have no control over who happens to be coach. No more so than you or any other fan. Rather than stressing over it and pissing off a whole forum by constantly *****ing I take it in stride.

Who Dat and on to the Panties!!

Also, you have no control over the team winning, by sitting in the refurbished dome for every game, while the team consistently underperforms… but you do it because of the way it makes you FEEL as a fan. Likewise, as a fan, I express the way it makes me FEEL, to have an absolute DUD, posing as a Head Coach, with Raider Curbside Trash, as my starting QB, for yet another season.

So from mopping up the restrooms for Divine Lady Gayle, or giving daddy Loomis a hot oil massage, or whatever floats your rosey boat, to me being pissed off about our team remaining in a state of perpetual mismanagement and irrelevance, we get to EXPRESS OURSELVES here in a Fan Forum. That’s just the way it works Polly. You can deal with it.
