After further review, little peeved over bandwagon...
... I know I shouldn't be, I thought I wouldn't care,maybe I should be happy about it, but during my annual Disney trip, I saw more new Saints gear walking around the Magic Kingdom than you'll see in the B&G shop. There was a sea of 9s and 25s everywhere...even saw people swimming in the pool with Saints gear on; and honestly, it kind of felt wrong. I usually see Who Dats here and there, but this year, I saw hundreds of people with new Saints gear. I usually don't walk around with much gear, maybe a hat or worn out B&G sweatshirt...of course, the faded Fleur-De-Lis tattooed on my left hand between my wrist, index finger and thumb is there for everyone to see that I was branded B&G long time ago, before tattoos became the accessory fad they are now.
..anyway, just a little peeved ![]() WHO DAT! |

I went during the Summer time and was surprised to see a lot of Saints gear. Most of the people I talked to came from England and are huge Saints fans.

I saw two... Count em TWO.... Saints hats in my town at the local high school ball game and by Goodness I wanted to ask them when they joined the bandwagon. I can honestly say when i wear my shirt or hat or something people used to trash talk me.

Yeah...here in Japan I'm seeing it, too. Makes me sick...these folks swoop in here after my +30 years of sheer agony to capitalize on the media frenzy. These are the same folks that if the Browns or the Lions both go 10-0 they'll be the first to throw ol' #9 or ol' #25 to the back of the closet. But if they'll make the Dome that much louder, I suppose it's alright. Just don't expect to see them next year if we lose a game or two.

Simply put, it should gall anyone who's had to suffer through years of never making the playoffs, or being checked off as a win on the schedules by top tier teams pre-season. Those of us who've earned our stripes during the lean years now have to tolerate front running fans mouthing off about 'their' team? Don't get me wrong, it's nice being liked instead of a perennial also-ran who gets no coverage by the press. I just think that the noobs need to know their role. Climb on board and enjoy the ride, but get in the backseat and STFU until you KNOW what you're yapping about. Let the old heads drive this puppy, 'cause we were doing it long before you came along. End rant here... B) |

i did a clinical rotation last month for a place and the first thing someone decided to ask the me was "so how long have you been rooting for the saints?" that stuff seriously pisses me off.
