Making Room on the Bandwagon?

leilung · 10-21-2009, 08:25 AM

OK. So now that the Saints have made their 'statement' and beaten one of the sports analyst's powerhouse teams handily, the tone around the league has changed to "the Saints are for real". You can see the change in the favoring winds like you do every year and 'fans' are not only starting to take notice, but they're also getting behind our beloved Saints because it appears they're suddenly the flavor of the month.

My question to the long suffering faithful is this:
Do you make room on the wagon for others to ride and welcome them with open arms, or do you make it clear that fair weather fans aren't welcome on this ride and they need to latch onto another hot team?

Your thoughts gang.

Every time a new Saints hat is purchased, another Cowboy fan dies...

I could care less if the media jumps on the bandwagon or not. No one gave the Saints a chance this year. When one of their "babies" suffers a beat down, they finally get with the program. As I stated in another post, there is no room for them on our bandwagon. GET OFF!

it really doesn't make a difference
in a sea of black and gold are you really going to be able to pick out the new comers?

As a saint fan, how many times have you pulled for some other team in the playoffs? I don't know about y'all but I wanted Eli and Giants to beat the 18-0 Pats almost as bad as I wanted us to beat the Giants Sunday.

Plus, the city needs the bandwagoners, too. For example, my buddy who came down with me to the game this weekend didn't really have an NFL team that he pulled for. It was his first trip to NO and not only is he a new fan of the team, he has fallen in love with the city New Orleans.

So I say hop on, there's plenty of room.

Depends on what team they dumped to become Saints fans .... if it was the Cowboys then NO bus is full

Great point. More fans bring more money!!

I saw plenty of Giants fans in the quarter so after the Saints put a whooping on the other team, their fans can go spend their money as well .... win win if you ask me
