What are the qualifications to be a "real fan"?

CantonLegend · 12-14-2009, 03:43 PM

i feel like im not a fan because i dont fit all the criteria some of you old farts are throwing out

but i know if you have been through the hard times and still come out a saints fan then you definitly get my vote

if you are still a fan after the countless 3-13 seasons we've had then you have my respect....if you are a fan this season because you root for the best team then you get no soup

but if you're too young or you've been in limbo for ahwile and you're willing to make a commitment....you are more than welcome to share my kool-aid

A true fan vomits at the beginning of every 4th quarter, regardless of the score. I won't say what the cause is, but all true fans know...

I've wanted to vomit watching the Saints play before, but usually I just gotta pee really really bad.

.. 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.

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.

Oh, I remember so very well
