As I thought about the reactions of some memebers on this board about the preseason loss to the Eagles. I realized something that I knew a long time ago.

What I realized is that because the Saints have let the fans down so many times over the years that when something bad happens, it is a natural reaction for fans to think that the Saints are once again going to disappoint.

I think most Saints fans live by "Murphy's Law"- (Anything that can go wrong will).
Then there are those that live by "O' Mally's Law"- (Murphy was an optimist).

Basically you have one type of fan that when something goes wrong, he searches for the answer in the players, coaching staff, front office, and truely beleives he is right. AND THEY MIGHT BE.

Then there are fans that are more patient and beleives that given enough time that everything is going to work out. They go into every year beleiving this is the year. AND THEY MIGHT BE RIGHT.

The great thing about this board is that everybody has an opinion. Some good. Some bad. But none the less, if your not careful, you just might learn something.

The point is, there is nothing wrong with questioning anything. There is also nothing wrong with beleiveing this is year to do it.

As the year goes on and the Saints win some games there will be those ready to claim that that we are superbowl bound. Some of the same members that are doomsayers will even jump on the ship.

Conversly, when the Saints lose some games there will be those who say we are doomed. Some of the same members that think we're headed to the superbowl will jump ship and go with the doomsayers.

Just for the record: Unitl we are eliminated from the playoffs, I will be expecting to go to the Super Bowl.

GO SAINTS-ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPER BOWL!!
