Saints Hatred?

NOLA54 · 01-29-2010, 12:28 PM

A lot of people want to see the Saints fail & stay in the gutter where they think we belong. They envy our success because their teams didn't make it and becaue they do not have the same connection we have with our Saints. When we won the NFC championship out of all the people I know around the country, only one person called me to congratulate us on our first Super Bowl. The Saints have earned this & we deserve to be proud.

I also like that idea. I'm going to go one step further. An appreciation tour through the whole state...New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Lake Charles, Alexandria, Shreveport and Monroe. It would reward the whole state for 43 years of patience and loyalty. What a great day it would be to see the Superbowl 44 champion New Orleans Saints parading through downtown Shreveport. It would surely pi** off a bunch of Cowboy fans up here! LOL

I did hear from a West Monroe, LA cousin of mine that when she left her dad's Sunday night after the game "BIG" fireworks were goin' off, and you could hear the cheers! Now that is cool! For a long time when I lived there, I thought I was the only Saints fan in the town!

I will say this...I got a nice text from a COWBOY'S fan right after the game, congratulating me! There are a few with class...just few and far between!

You know? I never realized him being a star for Ole Miss who torched LSU would make him disliked in La. Cant believe I never figured that out myself. Always a good story--thanks.

I would drive from Houston to Shreveport just to see that!

I felt that way when I worked in Many, La. Its good to know there's Black & Gold in Monroe.

So I guess we all would love to see a Saints Appreciation Tour travel all over Lousiana, and neighboring Gulf Coast states. You know the Houston Astros do exactly that, and I believe they travel into Louisiana. They could sell all kinds of merchandise, and do various co-sponsorships, so the money would be there. You know, and I know that we'd all buy that stuff too--- we cant get enough!

In the early days of the NFL, they did exactly that--- traveled across the country shaking hands, & making new fans. Im for it.

Only three people who aren't Saints fans actually congratulated me. The rest told me, "I hope the Colts spank you in the Super Bowl." They hate us because they can't be us.

A friend of mine told me we don't deserve to be in the Super Bowl. I told her, you must not know sh*t about football then. She didn't like that too much.

Nice!

The Vikings were LUCKY to be in that NFCCG with you guys. That said... your boys almost gave it away at the end. I don't share everyones hatred of Bret Favre... but he gave the game back to you guys at the end. But... IMO, he shouldn't have been in the game to begin with. Not with 5 turnovers.

I was rooting for them... but like I have posted before... because I think the Vikes would have been easier for the Colts to beat.

Your Saints are a shining example of what's possible while maintaining class, and respectability. Everyone should be proud.

9 more days!!

None of our players have anything close to an ego, personal problems, or problems with the law, but people hate them? I don't get this at all. To me, this goes to show, that the entire country is going to Hell, and they are happy as can be, to be on the ride.

Talk all you want about the team I guess, if that's all you can do, to make yourself feel better about your team losing, but leave Katrina, and the thousands of dead bodies, and destroyed homes and lives OUT OF IT. Pardon my violent nature, but when I read stuff like I have been reading lately, IT MAKES ME VIOLENTLY ANGRY. All I want to do, is start laying people out fist to face, because they are too stupid to be breathing.

My entire family lives on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. My cousin lost her house, her cars, all of her possessions, and almost her life, along with her two kids. The Gulf Coast still looks like an a-bomb hit it, for the most part, so to hear people relating their hate for a football team, to this kind of catastrophe is not only infuriating, it's un called for.

If these people have no better moral's, or even value for human life than this, then I can only blame their parents, for being such terrible people, that they allow their children to act this way. It's disgusting.

So I say this. Hate us. I officially don't care anymore. With your "kind", I will consider it a compliment to be hated by you, and anyone like you.

I wonder how many of these morons even know how many Colts players are from the Gulf Coast area, and how much suffering they went through themselves. Probably not. Most people with no class, stay that way, their entire lives.

EMBRACE THE HATE!!!

When fans of other teams hate you, that means you're successful!!!
When the media hates you, that means you're better than the Cowpies, Gnats, Patsies, etc.

TAKE IT AS A COMPLIMENT!!!!
