TackHammer...you might! It's pretty easy to love the Saints!

Hubby used to be a Dallas fan, and when we got married 8 years ago and I moved here from Louisiana, he fell in LOVE with New Orleans and the Saints...now he's a bigger fan than me, if possible!

Obviously, you've never been to the Superdome.

Reliant (even the name is corporate) Stadium is the drabbest, dullest sports experience I've ever had, and I've sat thru the slack of calf roping.
(ask a rodeo person.)

If youre coming to the game, you're in for some culture and some shock.

Hell I moved from South MIss to Atlanta and it will be a cold day in hell that I root for Atlanta. All my friends hate me cause I don't like the falcants or the Bulldogs.

Nothing at all against Houston - I have plenty of family there and spent a lot of time coming over to Astros games in the dome.

But I was so underwhelmed by Reliant Stadium. I came to the last Saints game there (regular season) in what, 2007 or whatever it was?

And hey SM, why you pickin' on Rodeo man? With the NFL rules such as they are, Rodeo may be the last real man's sport. And I don't wanna hear none of that NASCAR caca either.

I've been all over Louisiana,some of it I like,some of it not so much.
The same can be said about pretty much everywhere I've been.

thats a good, level headed statement, Tack. I can get with that.

Im not trying to blast you in any way. just passionate about some
things. thank goodness for this board, where you can express yourself.

I try to stay objective. That being said....in your post about Houston you pretty much ripped every aspect of my home town.
I find that rather insulting to be called soulless,when the very town your attacking opened there arms for you guys after Katrina hit.
I understand smack talk but I dont understand attacking someones city.

I can overlook most stuff on message boards...after all it's the internet and a lot of stuff gets said that wouldnt be said in a personal setting. If people acted like they do on the internet in real life ....my knuckles would never heal.

I think he can say that about Houston because he lives there...

strato · 09-19-2011, 07:45 PM

Houston has been good to me..i dont try and hide where i'm from..there is a lot of good people here and as Tack has said it did open its arms and was taken advantage of by some of those lowlifes that it tried to help..I don't like to dog on Houston..i have a lot of good friends there..i just happen to grow up in Louisiana..

I am a Saints fan of 35 years. and i wish the Texans well... just when they don't play us lol..and i don't follow them other than what i hear on local sports radio here...I think we should just try and get along..there are a lot of similarities between the two cities that i see..and a lot of people i know here are Saints fans because of me. Im one lucky dude because i know both cultures..but you cant forget where you came from and try and be something your not..just enjoy all of it..Put me a taco in one hand and a Shrimp Po Boy in the other..

Yeah but is he from Houston .....or Louisiana. Because I wouldnt think a born and bred Houstonian would say that,so I have to think he's a little biased.

And like I said ...I highly doubt he's that abrasive in person.I'd probably drink beer with the guy.

As far as the things I like about N.O.....Good eaten,good partyen,good music,good fishen and for the most part good people.

But I'm kinda partial to backwoods types...read what you want into that.LOL
