BlackAndGold.com website (...your thoughts)

We don't always agree on things but at the end of the day we are Saints fans. I think it's great that I can disagree with ScottF (not picking on you bro) about politics, but then "Like" his comments in another forum and vise versa. I don't know if the rest of y'all know how uncommonly strange that is this day in time. It is great, in my eyes, to know I can disagree with someone on something and then love the next post I read of theirs without ignoring that poster/member.

Deja vu, Mark.

Ok, since ya'll are taking this seriously, I feel badly for a nihilistic post.

I visit this site at least 3 times a day, and I look forward to the brutal insights and observations of the regulars. It is a space mercifully free of saccharine homerism, and the indigenous have respect for the fans of other teams (unless they are poorly mannered.)

I like that I can blog, post and chat at will, and that the only real censor is my conscience.

Thanks, Mark and your colleagues, for one of the real values of social media.

Xan, you are a regular brother.

Oh and about our collective bond....

Thanks to Roger Goodell; your evil, twisted, asinine approach to heavy handed... unjust.. unjustified punishment has strengthened our bond.

You will forever by my personal Katrina in the flesh.

I forget how I found this site. I stumbled in and there must have been fly paper on the ground, because I haven't been able to leave. From someone who has been a part of other boards, this place HANDS DOWN has the BEST members. Mark has done a great job with the site and he and other MODS is what makes the site run like a well oiled machine!

I have no need to go anywhere else to find news about our team. Anything I want to know is going to be right here.

So a BIG thank you to Mark and all the other MODS and a BIG thank you to the members!! It takes a collective effort to have such an great site!

I'm new here still, don't add my thoughts a lot but I enjoy this site & the info I get here. I get to see topics that I don't normally get to here in Kansas. I don't even go to the nfl.com site anymore.

The Black and Gold is my one stop for all things Saints. I check the B&G Twitter feed every morning to see whats new. Best source on the internet for news and updates on the team. I salute you and the excellent job that you do!
