.. simple..

walk to the alleged Saints fan, and whisper "Carl Smith" in his/her ear. If he/she doesn't twitch, not a real Saints fan.

Someone that can follow several threads every day on B&G.com during the
offseason is a true fan.

You're only a true Saints fan if you burn it.

Yep! But at least now we have a real DT in Sed Ellis, not a fake one like Sullivan was.

Sullivan was ranked second on our board that year at DT. The Jets, as I recall, beat us to our first choice.

Smith was pretty lousy as an OC, but, if you remember, it was Mora who refused to fire him.

Also, remember, Jim Finks didn't do real well drafting and signing players on the offensive side of the ball (at least, not skill position players). If he had, the Saints may already have had a couple of Lombardi's in the trophy case.

The demise of Jim Mora.
