Re: I'm wondering if the 80s/90s era is coming back
LMAO i think i still the last bag from the last game in a box some where. i use to sell bags out front of the dome all made up and set to go.
![]() how about the times were the real contest on the field was to see who could land an airplane on the logo at the 50? everyone cheered and i mean everyone now those were the days lol kids today have no idea what they missed out. sold out stadium with 10 to 20 thousand seats to pick from. everyone drunk as skunks talking about how to fix this freaking team the players getting the most attention was special teams? we had the best. plenty of 3 and outs to practice with. hell ESPN labeled us the most knowledgeable fans in the NFL i think that bit was in the 70's or 80's. Every two to three years we would get another phase of the game to study. we were never distracted by the others phases of the game because well they suxed. the first winning season? Finally we are winners yippee the first playoff appearance? lost? who cares we made it on and on and on amazing what perspective gives you. Trust us old timers: it can get a whole lot worse than this |

The bags seemed like a lifetime ago. We will stay competitive with SP and Drew around. The next chapter will be the big question, by that time most of us older fools will be to senile to know whats going on.

But that's alright because everyone knows Ohio's true pro team is the Buckeyes.![]()
Then I head south the second Dempsey kicked that field goal with half a foot (and -according to ignorant haters, an illegal shoe) figuring any team that'll hire a guy with half an arm and half a foot is my kind of team. Haven't ever turned back. I bet there's still beer on the ceiling of that apartment from the game that put us into our first winning season. Hell, used to throw a party whenever the Saints would be on TV outside their local area. Also in another apartment the day Benson bought the team figuring a player didn't need to be born in Louisiana to be a Saint anymore. Washed the beer off the wall from the day we brought in Drew..... Buckeye by birth, Who Dat by choice! Yep, the 70's-80's-90's aren't even close to coming back. If anyone's laughing at the Who Dats these days, listen closely. It's a nervous, scared laugh. |
