Our first three games last year were push overs, guys.
This year, our first four are tough. Two of which are division rivals. Last year; as far as doom and gloom go; Miami, ST LOUIS (nail biter) and Washington were all near losses. Intestinal fortitude and a little bit of luck bouncing our way won those games for us. If you really lived through the dreadful years of the Saints.....this ain't nuthin'! |

Well the bottom line is that we won. San Fransisco played a great game(minus the turnovers), in their house on Monday night. I have to tip my hat to them their defense did a good job as well as their offense. But we still weathered the storm and pulled off a victory. I for one am not concerned about the team right now. I am disappointed we lost Reggie though which could cause some problems. T Yes I think we got outplayed in some areas but we didn't make nearly as many mistakes as the 49ers which is what good teams do. he fair weather fans will start jumping ship though just because we're not winning by 25 points. I know so because I work with a couple guys who are already downing the team.Well good reddens to them.

Everyone has to admit that a true Saints fan will say things that they don't really mean about the Saints but they always come back around. What we can't do is over analyze everything that is said. We've been talking trash about OUR Saints for 44 years but there are no fans like us because we speak our minds.

I was on the live chat for the first time in a while last night and it was fun. It was a nail-biter and when you get games like that tension runs high. I know I would get frustrated and point out poor tackling by the defense or lack of execution by offense on key series but I never gave up and got excited when we made plays, and I think that was how most of the crowd was. There were some who thought we were getting lucky with some turnovers and thought the game was over when SF converted on that last drive but that was a small group. We have a good team and it isn't going to be an easy road but I believe in these guys. We are mentally tough and winning games when you don't play that well is something great teams do.
Overall, I thought the live chat was a good time and I plan on jumping on again the next time I can watch the game at home and not have to go to a bar (which unfortunately probably won't be until we play the steelers on MNF). |

The niners definately showed up to play.I'm not one to go into panic mode just because the team is not where we expect them to be;tough start to a season but at least we aren't playing the lesser caliber teams leaving the media to rant and rave.I've always rode it out thru the highs and lows no matter the situation.Your opinion may be Repete's stuck in stupid,but I see it as no difference from the old days when our faith was tested week in week out.Another tough one next week but just as always...BRING EM' ON

Sign me up for 10-12 more wins like this in the regular season and three in the postseason and I'll be a happy camper.
Probably a little more gray hair, but happy... |
