Welcome To The Off Season

FinSaint · 02-06-2012, 04:51 PM

Thank God there's still the NHL!

But on a side note, I have to thank all of you guys for a great full season of debates, speculations, and sometimes even arguments that I got to share with all of you fine people.

It was truly a pleasure to exchange thoughts with you on our beloved Saints, and my only regret is that I didn't join this great community earlier.

And a special thank you to Halo - your work in keeping these boards running is much appreciated!

anybody know how our draft picks add up this year. I know were minus a 1st round pick (feeling buyers remorse on that)

I completely agree with you on this Sky. We blew a great chance at another Super Bowl which makes this the most disappointing season in Saints history. It's nice that we have a good team in place right now but the reality is that the window to win in this league is so small and we let an opportunity slip by. Unfortunately, living in NY it seems like the memory of this season is going to live for a while. Freaking giants got every break that game. As happy as I am that this season is finally over I'm going to be constantly reminded by giants fans all offseason of what could of been.

Hopefully this mild winter in the Northeast continues and the golf courses open early this year...

Coach Payton has brought us a looooonnnnnnggggg way!

ZZZZZ2!

Wake me up when we're on the clock picking that rookie pro-bowler....

Great season that could've been greater is how I see it.

It was only a couple of hours after the 49ers loss that I was already getting the Mardi Gras costumes and decorations out the closet...then after that it's gonna be Jazz Fest, so I'm set for a while.

I been doing those honeydo jobs for weeks, didn't watch any of the championship games. This Super Bowl seemed boring all they way from the opening kickoff to the BLAND BLUE Super Bowl hats they issued out after the Giants won. I think if Gronk gets his mits around that last ball Brady threw then it might be a memorable game. Since that didn't happen its a wash.

Only real reason I could take it was to win my bet on the Giants. This game is so much about matchups. Hard to be that close and blown with a bad performance in S.F. I just hope we can clean up our defense this year and get some revenge on S.F.
After losing to them so many times before that was real hard to take. Still went a long way and this team is finally getting some respect now. Nothing can take the place of Football for me and I go into some type of hibernation or funk. Although I do become interested in LSU and Tulane Baseball to some degree it's just not fun anymore. Need some happy pills to get me to August/September. Great site have some people here that know a lot more than me about the Game. It has been a pleasure.
