Asinine topic? How about this, imagine before all this technology no one had something others didnt. Iphones, Ipods, Ipads some people still can't afford this. And there are judgemental people and shallow people out there today. People still after 20 years old acting like high school. Of course the saints sb is one of the greatest sports moments in my life. But I guess I'm a small town at heart guy stuck in the big city. And this isnt supposed to mean that I regret saints football. I would never say that. I would not be breaking my back trying to combat so many naysayers on that other board defending the team if I regreted being a saints fan. It just means living in times where family and friendships were easier.

Re: As a saints fan are you proud to live in this generation?

I can't say I'm exactly proud to be living in these times , but wow, they sure are interesting and with the way technology has exploded, I just can't see myself living in an earlier time. My dearest fantasy and that of so many others it to take what I know now and be reborn and start over from babyhood. If we can keep it together and not destroy ourselves, the possibilites of what mankind can achieve are nearly limitless.

Everyone knows Ancient Rome was the place to be for sports.
Sea Battles,Gladiators,animal displays and even theatrical displays at the Flavian Amphitheater.While just round the corner you could watch chariot racing at the Circus Maximus.

Forget you lee, its ALWAYS 6th centery Rome this and 6th centery Rome that! When will you ever get of this Flavian Amphitheatre and comparing emperor Vespasian to Sean Payton kick. Geez!!!
..and while you watch your games, forgeting who is winning, drinking your vitamin rich lead filled 6 pack, and eating your 10,000 calzone.

Ill be enjoying a win while the opposing team is slaughtered before me, with one of my many native wives reading the events of the week to me on my extremely accuarate and colorful calender. Mayan all the way babe!


...sorry its very slow in the smack forum

Saints proved that pigs could fly in 2009.
Now its time for another miracle SuperBowl and go where no pig has gone before.

Re: As a saints fan are you proud to live in this generation?

Interesting stance.

As a Saints Fan? - I am really pleased to have had the opportunity to enjoy the Saints. That is the bad, bad, bad, mediocre, bad, not bad, .. and then stunningly the SB that I never ever expected and what has occurred since.
I am comforted very much by multiple experiences of being a Saints fan - this board, walking and talking with other Saints fans. There is an affinity that if I have to explain it to you then you are not ready to understand.

This generation? - I absorb information. So I cannot think of a better gone-by age where I could absorb as much information as I can now. Do I like everything about this age? No. But so far I know, there is no age when I would have liked everything. One all-time example is that there is always a proportion of mankind fighting others.

Technology & relationships - Of course technology makes a difference, be it medicine, "toys" or communication, or.... The fact is that some have and some don't. Well it was always thus. I cannot complain about the relationships I have or I have had. So I will not.

Our Saints, Our City, Our Soul
Saints are individuals of exceptional holiness

Re: As a saints fan are you proud to live in this generation?

From a Saint fan standpoint this is the time, no question. From a technology standpoint, in retrospect, it was nice to not be so readily available ALL THE TIME. From a parntal standpoint, having access to your children so readily far outweighs the negatives. So this generation is where to be for me.
