Doncha just love being the home dog?
 
Philly giving 3.5. 70% of home dogs cover. That must mean the oddsmakers are trying to pull in suckers from Philly.

After opening 4-1 and having an ostensibly tougher opening schedule than the Eagles, I'd be pretty pissed being a home dog.

We fans have something to celebrate already with the 4-1 start but when we beat the Eagles Sunday it will be the biggest celebration we had in longtime..

Thanks! Been wondering if we even had a message board. Saw this site on the Eagles board.

I'll remember that when I don't go to the game.

There's nothing better than going to Saints games\, I'll try to make one this year, I normally go to at least one game per season..
Friends of ours have season tickets and told me that the Dome is wild this season.

The Falcon game was INCREDIBLE! Not quite as wild and loud last week because we just looked flat at first but I expect us to be back into the game this week. I really wish there hadn't been that flag to suppress the crowd after Reggie's run. It kept us from really cheering him until we knew.

welcome poydras

screw the flag. just get louder. flag you again get even louder. do not let the nfl nuralize the 12th man. we pay to much for the tickets. hey i wont throw a bottle at the refs or players but that is were i draw the line.
We were playing LA rams(before the left due to bad attendence) in the 80's. The refs gave up after 3 flags and said just play. that was the end of that. the nfl has to know when a team comes to the dome they can not control the saints fans. It is our right. stand up and scream. the players will love it in the long run. attitude does come from the stands.

That wasn't it. Everyone just quieted down a minute to see what the flag was. It would have been more fun to just keep going crazy.

Did they get the chat thing working...I tried one time but I kept getting a blank screen.

Just curious.....normally what they do is start charging the home team time-outs if the crowd does not settle down after the referee's warning right? At least thats how I remember it.

I think you missed the point. The flag wasn't for fans being too loud. The flag was supposedly the typical block in the back type foul that occurs virtually on every punt or kick return in the NFL today. But it turned out to be on Tampa Bay.

Right. It kept us from giving Reggie the ovation that he deserved. Had it not been for the stupid flag, he might have done the SuperDome leap or something. :D

I remember that game... I was real young, and I remember being able to hear the crowd through the radio. For some reason I want to say it was a Monday Night game (could be wrong).

I don't remember why the dome was rockin' so hard. Anyone recall why the crowd was going off? I'm sure the flags just insighted them further. Wasn't it like a 16 minute delay in the game? Set a record?

I'd love to see the crowd get whipped up into that kind of frenzy this weekend?
