Call it a curse, destiny, fate, whatever you want. But nothing has ever changed, and nothing ever will.

I'm not mad, I'm not really upset. I've just checked out emotionally. I am getting married in a couple months and moving to the Midwest, and I honestly think it'll be a relief to leave all of this behind me. It's just not healthy. Maybe I'm being a bad fan or whatever, but it's not worth my personal well-being to keep doing this to myself.

I'll stick it out through the rest of this season but I'll be happy to move on to a Saints-less existence. I just can't do it anymore.

Kudos to all you guys who choose to keep sticking it out. You're made of sterner stuff than I am.

I know exactly what you mean. I've been a fan for 40+ years. I thought I had reached a point where they could never fool me again. But they come out and look like the best team in the league for 13 games then roll over and play dead against a pathetic team like the Bucs.
