Re: DONE

I enjoy the Saints, but I’m not the hardcore guy I was years ago. It got too frustrating to watch and it would ruin my week when they lost. Lol. Today I spent the afternoon working on my pickup and occasionally checking the score on ESPN.

I’ll admit I thought the game was over when they turned it over on downs in the 4th quarter. Then I was stoked we actually scored and took the lead. But in the pit of my stomach I had a feeling Koo was gonna convert a long FG to win it.

That said, I really hope they right the ship. But I don’t eat, sleep and **** Saints football right now.

I do enjoy this place and discussing the games. I understand people having to bow out because it can be quite gut wrenching.

Maybe next week.

Ah, J this gave me a smile.

Changing out the old spark plugs/wires and points eh ?

Sunday evenings & working (I was only a helper) on my dad's car was THE thing for me as a kid ... great times.

Anyway, appreciate the share here .

As we age, we gain wisdom, hopefully, and learn to not be so emotionally invested. For me, what helps is the unfortunate realization that the NFL has become the WWE with outcomes that are predetermined. Wish it weren't so .

Screw Rodger Goodell and what he's done to football. I haven't watched football in years besides my Saints. Even that is getting really hard to watch. Oh well, next week we have another shot.
