DONE

I'm not as down on them as most. I still think we win the devision and would not be surprised at all if we beat the Chiefs. I have hated the fact we lost Payton and it was obvious Roger had it out for us but it was the refs that made me lose my passion. Now I don't feel like refs are out to screw us and this Saints team just feels different than last year. I predict 2 to 3 more losses and I've been with low expectations since Allen took over. F#$@ the dirty birds

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.

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 .

Not making the necessary adjustments after last week’s embarrassment at home against the eagles, injuries not withstanding (injuries plague other teams too, but they find a way to WIN), the Saints just showed everybody that we are what they THOUGHT we were. I can’t even call what happened today “mediocre”.

My join date says '09 or something... I've been a fan since birth, however... My mom would go to the games with the 'ole paper bag.

I knew, and felt it. ****lanta would march on down to kick a field goal for the win. Sure enough after the PI it was basically done...

That horribly muffed punt had me saying, "ah, we'll be fine." Yet in the back of my head I was thinking ****, this isn't going to be easy, we can over come that... While still having a voice say, the Saints are gonna lose this now. WE SEE IT ALL THE TIME.

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.
