I couldn't care less about LSU or any other college team or game for that matter, but I would only ask that you actually read the posts before commenting on them... I think that is considered a common courtesy around here.

No idea why ur mad about this. All I said was that the super bowl was played on a neutral field

It's not considered an away game because neither team is playing at home

Ppl consider us a weak road team for several reasons...none of which apply on a neutral field

I'm not mad about anything... well I am about somethings, but none of those have anything to do with football, this board or you.

One of the reasons why people do think that the Saints are a weak road team is that they consider the Saints to be an "Arena League" team, which can only succeed under the roof and on the artificial turf it provides. I think that both of these questions can be answered (at least to some extent) by looking at the SB game, which was played away from the confines of the Superdome on an "outdoor" stadium with natural grass as the surface.

If you refuse to comprehend that you're entitled to hold the perception you prefer.

That's fine but we also lost to st Louis in a dome so the outside conditions are only a portion of ppls concerns

The superdome is the biggest home field advantage in sports and when ur on top...there's only one way to go when you leave the done and that's down

We score about half as many points away from home and drew throws twice as many picks away

I don't think it's necessarily a direct correlation but I don't think its purely coincidence either

Look I don't know what your agenda is exactly, but I've only been responding to your comments on my posts, and it seems like when I answer to your comments you just ignore them and come up with new additional arguments, which were never part of the original debate.

Here's a recent post from the 49ers thread from a user who clearly isn't a Saints' fan.

That was my point, not that the Saints are invincible in a dome environment. And of course the Saints do better in a dome environment, because when you take weather conditions out of the equation, a pass heavy team like the Saints will always have a better chance at succeeding - there's no mystery there.

Who's everyone?

Nor, as usual, I don't see the relevance or correlation to what's being discussed.
