Your WORST "I Can't Believe It" moment with the Saints...

thefifthwall · 09-02-2012, 08:04 PM

I've been here too long so anything that happens on the field wouldn't surprise me. But the worst thing that I couldn't believe had got to be the talk of the Saints moving to San Antonio . Business is business but the timing was unbelievable

Its good to know that there are so many people who felt exactly the same stuff
that I did in our inglorious past. I lived on the State Line for years, and worked in West La, and I thought I was the only Saints fan in Louisiana.

So, I could double the length of this thread by asking, "During how many of these moments, did you see it coming?" For my entry, the '84 Cowboys game, you could see it coming like a train. There was no doubt, and there was no stopping it.

I voted for all of the above

Missed extra point for me. I remember it vividly sadly enough. Jumping up and down with utter disbelief that it actually happened just to be slammed back to earth by a missed xp. Them were the days of just knowing our team would figure out a way to lose.

During them Dick-ka era. Billy Joe Tolliver could have ran out the clock but didn't GB got the ball back & Farve scored with like 10 seconds left. I didn't watch football the rest of the year

Bobby Hebert throwing the ball 40 feet in the air out of bounds in the back of the endzone in our playoff game vs. ATL. Didn't even give our team a chance to make a play. He stunk as a QB.

One of mine is not a game or play but a wasted pick; Chase Lyman. Great player in college but the man had his knees rebuilt with animal parts and I'm not kidding. Never played a down. I understand taking a chance but that's not even a chance. Once that went down I knew things would not get better until the leadership changed. He should have went undrafted.

Mine was last year's game at the 49ers. I was so tired, but was fighting like hell ti watch the game. But in the 4th quarter I fell asleep. Woke up and saw that niner catching the ball in tge end zone. Never woke up before seing such annoying thing...

Somewhere over the rainbow!
