Lawyer Milloy Released!!

God - how much will it hurt you if that guy is Brooks?? You\'d have to change your screenname or leave the board! HA HA!

Kidding Billy - but my point all along has been, why do you trust the coaching staff so much now? Last year did they come in saying \"Knight and Clemons are going to be problems\"??? NO, those two guys were the cornerstones of our defense this time last season. Pro Bowlers in all of our minds. 16 games later the coaching staff claims they\'re everything that was wrong with our defense and you\'re buying it. Clemons was a very good OLB and he will be again in Houston. Watch Knight in Miami - this could be another Pro Bowl season for him too. I just don\'t understand why you NEVER question the coaches when their tunes seem to change every couple of months.

WhoDat -- We can go on and on and on about which players the Saints should have signed or kept. But, the fact is with free agency that\'s the way it is. Also, there is no agueing the fact that the team the Saints have now is a better team than the Saints have ever had.

Every team would like to keep all the good players, but it just don\'t work that way. Would I like to have some of those players back? Sure I would. Would I like to sign some of the bigger name free agents out there? Sure I would, but there\'s this little thing called a salary cap.

BlackandBlue · 09-02-2003, 02:34 PM

Based on past experiences, I\'m confident we won\'t. So much so, that if you\'re willing, I\'d also be willing to put up a $500 bet on this. All we would have to do is trade contact info.

WhoDat · 09-02-2003, 02:37 PM

OK Billy - go that route. Just tell me who will fall short this season and be a major part of why the defense failed come January. Tebucky? Smith? Carter? Sullivan? Jackson? Who? B/c right now all I hear you saying is that the defense got better, but I\'m guessing you said the same thing last year. Maybe this year you\'ll be right... then again, you\'re saying the offense should get even better also. That\'s making me nervous.

BillyCarpenter1 · 09-02-2003, 02:37 PM

Please!! If you\'re saying that the odds are against the Saints because so many teams other than the Saints are going after him then I agree. If you\'re saying it\'s because the Saints front office sucks then I disagree.

No bet. My mama didn\'t raise no fool...

Unlike you, I cannot predict the future. I\'ll let you know who I want gone after the season is over. That way I can tell you who didn\'t cut it.

WhoDat · 09-02-2003, 02:42 PM

OK - so then you\'re saying it is likely to expect that at least one defensive player will not live up to expectations this season. How will that affect the defense? It sounds to me like you\'re saying it won\'t. So someone on our defense will disappoint huh? Yet the D will still improve by 10 or 15 spots? Interesting prediction.

BlackandBlue · 09-02-2003, 02:45 PM

Please!! If you\'re saying that the odds are against the Saints because so many teams other than the Saints are going after him then I agree. If you\'re saying it\'s because the Saints front office sucks then I disagree.

Actually, I\'m stating neither. I\'m basing my opinion on our past maneuvers in free agency, which I think WhoDat summed up brilliantly in a previous post.
On another note, this is NOT the best Saints team we\'ve seen. The honors go to the team from 2000-2001 season, and if any of you are too stupid to realize why, then do not post here anymore. In quiet retrospect, let us all think back to the year and what made that team so great. It\'s funny that you can\'t base your opinions on individual players yet, because you can\'t \"predict the future\", but you are willing to claim this is the best Saints team we\'ve ever seen, without them taking a single regular season snap.

BillyCarpenter1 · 09-02-2003, 02:55 PM

Let me clarify something. When I said best team, I meant the best team(s) since Haslett has been here, compared to teams under past coaches. Quit posting cause I\'m supid huh? That\'s the best ya got? I could say the same about you IF your posts were more about football rather than about everything else.

BlackandBlue · 09-02-2003, 03:08 PM

and if any of you are too stupid to realize why

No no no, please, read more into my post than what is actually there. But I can see why you thought I singled you out- it was the way I typed it, it had that connotation. Please, Billy, as usual you\'re looking to lure one of us that has a differencing opinion than yours into a pissing match with you. Gee, maybe I could garner more respect by telling everyone that they are wrong all the time- yeah, that\'s it. I\'ll give that a go from now on. Would be alot better than never talking about football, like I do now.
And correct me if I\'m wrong, but wasn\'t the 2000-2001 season Haslett\'s first year as head coach? You\'re not a bandwagon jumper, are you?
