Am I the only one?

Plllllllllllllllllllllltttt!

LOL, you old as....I mean, \"codger\". Had me laughing on that one.

To answer the original topic question ... yes billy, it appears you are the only one. At least right now.

About the editing, I like it. I get bored and aggravated when I see people open a new topic about the same subject that is already on the board. Most of the time it appears it is done because someone thinks they have something important to say and they want to make sure everyone sees it. I have nothing against starting a new topic that originates of another post, but to say the same thing only throws othersnew topics farther down the page.

Oh no. You\'ve discovered my secret.

I misquote Billy to make my posts \"sound better\"..... and I use his terms to make my posts \"look better\".

BlackandBlue · 09-09-2003, 12:18 PM

I knew you were a phony :P

FWtex -- You\'re the last person who should be talking about beating a dead horse to death. About the only thing you have talked (whined) about is the coaching staff. Do you ever have anything to say that isn\'t related to coaching?

Why don\'t you just cut and paste the first post you ever made on here for every responce you make? You don\'t need to keep doing all that typing.

Billy, I have a feeling this is part of what Joesam was trying to get through to you. I did not point anyone out yet you seem to take offense to it.

I have only started a few topics that deal with the coaching. Most of the comments you have read have been to your screwed up logic ... like this one.

Your good for this board though billy. without you we would all be agreeing with one another and none of us would be sure we are smarter than the other. At least with you we know we are not as football ignorant as we could be.

FWtex -- You\'re good for something too --NOTHING-- That\'s really what I think about your gloom and doom theory -- NOTHING -- You can keep on talking about the coaches if you want and I\'ll keep on beleiveing that we can win.

You see FWtex -- The season is young and I\'m still standing firmly in my belief that we are a good team. If I\'m wrong it won\'t be the first time. I hope when the Saints start winning that you will be enough of a man and come back and tell us how ignorant you are.

FWtex · 09-09-2003, 02:04 PM

when they continue playing like crap will you come back and admit what I already know about you?

BillyCarpenter1 · 09-09-2003, 02:16 PM

Once the Saints are eliminated from the playoffs -- I will have to admit how blind I was. Until then -- I will not call into question every mistake that is made. I get pissed off at some of the stupid sh!t they do too. You can call me patient, optimistic, stupid , ignorant, what ever you want to call me. I hoped that the Saints would come out in mid-season form, but they didn\'t.

We got a big whole season ahead of us and one of us is going to be wrong. I like my chances. One game brother -- that\'s all we lost -- I don\'t care how bad we looked, I firmly believe that we will have a good year.

If all of this gloom and doom stuff applies because we lost the first game, then, we should be superbowl bound if we beat huston, huh??

I gotta agree with FWTex. Sooner or later the coaching staff has to step up and accept the blame for the poor play of thier players.

If a big corporation is constantly losing money because the CEO and top management can\'t seem to hire the right employees or motivate the one they\'ve got, I\'ll guarantee that changes will be made, people will be held accountable and heads will roll -- starting at the top. It\'s the same in professional sports as it is in business or education or anything else of importance. Somehow, Benson and the SAINTS just don\'t seem to get it though.

They complain when the fans lose interest or don\'t buy enough tickets to games, but they don\'t seem to care whether or not they put on a quality performance for the fans that ultimately pay all of their salaries. So in my opinion, the fans certainly have the right to complain when they believe that the coaches are allowing an inferior product to be produced and if Benson (and BillyC.) doesn\'t realize that, they must not be all there.

No more excuses! Just get the job done. If you have talent, use it and get the most out of every player. If you don\'t, then get the talent you need and fast. But quit making lame excuses.

Just my rambling opinion,

Go SAINTS!!!!!
