Being a "real fan" has nothing to do with how much you criticize people. It has nothing to do with "testicles" either. This is about showing some common decency and respect to a guy who has given plenty to Saints fans over the years. Staying after games to sign autographs for hours, working a ton with charities, composing himself as a true professional on and off the field. Maybe someday when you grow up a little you'll begin to understand that these players are not robots or interchangeable parts on a roster. They're human beings and like anyone else they deserve a little bit of respect. I'm done. Feel free to go back to your regularly scheduled bashing. |

Think about the leverage this ACTUALLY gives the staff in the locker room now.
I imagine a scene something like this with the rookies and new recruits: "I liked that bear, I don't even know you." |

With Stinch gone, it opens up room on the roster for another player.

Actually, they are interchangeable parts on a roster. Stinch gets my respect for what he has done in the past. His usefulness was obviously at an end, and I'm not going to feel bad for expressing my opinions on roster Saints roster moves on a board that has the specific purpose of letting people express their opinions on Saints football.

Granted I don't think this scenario would materialize, but as I stated, hypothetically would it be possible? |

It was simply time to go. Someone in house may step up or we may have to look at some of the outcasts that are cut later. Personally, I think of Stinchcomb with fond memories and will give him the respect he has eaned and deserves. However......business is business and we did what we needed to do.....if we cut him with salary then we are an even classier organization than I thought. We are known for doing right by our players and I'm proud.
