OK, I remember now. We were at Applebee's watching the game and now I recall it being yet another blowout. Everyone was cheering. Even though some consider AZ Pittsburgh West, it seems everyone in the bar that night wanted the Saints to win. It would be great seeing you guys win it all this year. The games you won were impressive and it just seemed everything was clicking at the right time. I look forward to the Saints hoisting the Lombardi. The Steelers play the Saints this upcoming season. Unless the Steelers work miracles on their o-line, I can only imagine how many times Ben will be on the ground for that game!

he's got a lot of growing up to do. as we say here in orlando, "poor lil' fella'!"

I asked him how old he is, because based on his posts, he seems VERY young, and I would bet he is. Although I'm sure he will tell me, that he is in his 50's, and has been a Colt fan since Johny Unitas played. At least that's what I am expecting.

My father, and brother, are both long time Steeler fans. I've been through alot of ribbing over the years, being a Saints fan, but they are both pulling for the Saints this year. Kind of nice, us all being on the same page for once. Although, I might get yelled at by some of my fellow Saints fans here, I was pulling for the Steelers last year. I hate Jerry Jones, and knew it would stick in his craw, to know that the Steelers had one more superbowl than his Cowboys.

LOL, well good for you sticking with "your" team through thick and thin. That's they way it should be. I stuck through the Steelers through the wretched 80s after watching them win 4 SBs and every year kept saying, "next year". Eventually it comes. And I share your feelings about Jerry Jones, but then again, who doesn't? He's everything that represents wrong in the NFL, well him and Goodell that is, but let's not go there, lol! The Colts fans are young and most only became fans when Manning started winning. They'll be gone when he's gone. I know every fanbase has obnoxious fans, but man these Colts fans go beyond that, it's the arrogance and cockiness I can't stand. Believe me, the Saints win, the Colts fans will have all kinds of excuses. That's what they're really good at.

Good luck on Sunday. I'm sure I'll be back around to check in but you should know we here in the 'burgh are rooting for "yinz" to bring that Lombardi to sweet NO!

Thank you sir, and thanks for the support! I'm learning about the Colts fans, the hard way. Come back anytime.

Please don't lump me in with the Jerky Colts fans. I have been very respectful, and try to talk about football.

The Colts are a great team. So are the Saints. the game this Sunday will not change either of those facts. I have been a Colts fan since they came to town in 1984. I was a junior in high school. I think how Bob Irsay did it was a travesty. Although, Baltimore DID try to steal the team from him. I think he had the right to leave, and probably should have... but in the middle of the night was a cowardly way to go about it. Jim Irsay is a lot more stand up dude. I don't like his politics... but he's not a dick like his dad was.

The Saints rock. They are probably my favorite NFC team. I have some allegiance to the Packers too. I was a Bears fan when I was a kid... but now I realize I was a Walter Payton fan, not a Bears fan.

Sorry to ramble.

6 days till two great teams clash. I can't wait.

The facts are that the Colts are the more consistently good team. That being said, the Saints are more consistent each year over the last 3-4 years. If the Saints show up playing their best ball....no way we lose!!! PERIOD!!! If both teams show up playing their best ball, no way we lose!!!!PERIOD!!!!

The Saints are more likely to show up without there A game than the Colts are, like I said they are the most consistent team in the NFL!!!! I just don't see how that happens though.... My mind can not conceive failure at this point!!! We have overcome to much and come to far to beat ourselves!!!!! I really really like our chances of winning this game!!!!!

WHO DAT!!!!!!:cool:
