Former Saints Get The Last Laugh!

I bet that Jake Delhomme,Normand Hand,Charlie Clemmons,Sammy Knight,Kyle Turley,and a host of other former Saints are thanking their lucky stars that Haslett let them have their freedom.They're probably seeing what's going on in this organization and saying; thank god I'm not caught up in that mess.Delhomme gets to start for a fiery young team that is emerging as one of the better all around teams this year.Hand gets to start on a 4-0 Seahawks team that is also looking great.Charlie Clemmons gets to use his strengths in Houston,and that team will only get better with time.Sammy Knight is playing well on a Dolphins team that could easily make the playoffs.Look at Willie Roaf.He's doing great in KC.Kyle Turley is holding his own with the Rams.Marc Bulger,who Haslett didn't feel was worthy,is lighting it up for the Rams.The other Rickey Williams is making his presence felt in Indy.I could go on with a host of other talent that Haslett has shown the door.Meanwhile Haslett's current roster is beat down and lacking confidence in this organization.I bet that there are players on this roster saying to themselves right now;I hope Coach shows me the door at the end of this season.This is what happens when you give someone with an ego the size of Mt. Everest control over who comes and who goes.Who made Haslett a hall of fame coach?He has to earn that honor.Haslett is just a beginner in this league,and he's not starting off very well.I don't see many players wanting to win for him.He seems to Isolate himself from the team.He thinks of himself as God and everyone else is just his pupils.Most players won't say how they really feel about an organization or coach for fear of backlash.If only we could see inside their minds and read what they are really thinking.I bet it's not too good.Haslett has got to go to this team and put himself back down on there level instead of sitting up on the throne.I think he's lost this team and there may not be any way to get them back.I hope he's learning a good lesson about how to treat your players.They are not a bunch of machines,they do have human feelings.If Haslett is shown the door at the end of the season,he will probably take what he has learned and have more success elsewhere.Meanwhile he has got some real soul searching to do.This is one of the many internal problems with the Saints organization.We need change for the better,and not some marketing ploy to get the fans hyped up.We need a football oriented GM like Jim Finks was,or like Randy Mueller was.Haslett would have been much better under Mueller.Loomis gave Haslett too much control over talent issues.Once we get that GM,we can start to build a real organization.I just don't know if Benson is the right type of owner to get this done and keep it together.

Any thoughts from the rest of you guys?
