Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Smack down will just get this thread moved to smack talk....

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Moved? Is there another forum we're supposed to use to talk smack about the Saints v. Falcons game...

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Ultimate Smack talk area I would assume... :p

If we start it here the Failcant fans will come here and taint up the place...

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

4 weeks pre-mature. The Falcons ain't worth that kind of attention.

Just another W for the Saints.

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

It does happen to be my birthday, so if you guys need any added incentive...

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

This game should open the 2013 NFL season for Monday Night Football.

Exactly! This rivalry is as good as Cowboys v. Redskins, Packers v. Bears, Jets v. Pats...

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

F'em Oak! Bring It! Let the mice come in here with the Big Kats...we've had all offseason to sharpen our paws...

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Uhhh.

Geaux Saints. :bng:

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Oak, do NOT move this thread. If this doesnt belong in the main
forum, nothing does.

Saints vs. Falcons is the most underrated rivalry in football.
See yall at the Dome!

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

As long as it stays a discussion it will remain. Once it goes to Idiot Ville, which I suspect will happen if it survives 3 weeks on page 1 of this area it is in jeopardy. Falcons fans are too busy beating up on the Falcons presently to be bothered with us.

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

I am not too happy about the noon kickoff on this one. The Dome always seems so much louder and wilder in a 3 PM or night kickoff. If you look at the recent history, night games at home against the Falcons are always epic beatdowns, it's the noon games and the road games that are halfway to being close games. We haven't had the Falcons at HOME for a night game in a couple of years now. It's yet another way the league manipulates and keeps giving the Falcons a break in the scheduling, trying to help them "rise up". I guess after we clobbered them 45-16 and Brees broke the record, the networks have learned that those games in the Dome aren't usually very close, LOL.

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Sunday home games are always at noon for the Saints, unless it is a Prime Time Sun Night game; Thrs/Mon/Sun night games are at prime time/PM.

3PM are East coat games. Unless it is against a West Coast team like SF.

We played the Falcons in 2011 on MFN

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Just curious, why are you telling me this? I know when the games are. I was there at the Falcons Monday night games in 2011, and 2009, etc. I even mentioned the score of the 2011 one in my post.

We have played the Panthers at 3 PM in the Dome before. And the Rams. Look it up. So it is NOT just West Coast teams. And it's not always noon. Trust me, I know when the games are.

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

I'm so confused..............

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

have it your way... However.

It is not a man made decision, the time scheduling of games is automated... It is not a decision designed to give anyone an edge. There are rules that govern the process.

3pm games are louder because people have 3 more hours to drink, and the NFL doesn't just say "lets have it at 3pm".

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

I know this isn't a smack thread, so just thought I'd post a well known fact.

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Our normal start time is noon, as with all teams in the Central Time Zone, BUT actually, the NFL does move some times to put attractive matchups on national tv. We dont get a lot of these, because we sucked last year.

Our game vs. the 49ers this year is apparently attractive nationally, and also this is probably placed at 3pm so their audience doesnt have to tune in it at 11am Pacific Time.

I can remember when we sucked so bad we always kicked off at noon at home, and rarely had a Monday Night game.

This thread: NO TICK TURDS ALLOWED...

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Yeah, but Mike, even if we're not Saints fans - Falcons v. Saints should be a MNF or SNF game...

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

thats true... but I dont think the rest of America realizes how big our rivalry is....

We'll be in NOLA sept 7.

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

Yeah, it's not like they're not four states involved (Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia)...

And they even have a Saints/Falcons Express Train Ride for their 1:1 games!

Re: Sunday, 8 September 2013 Falcons v. Saints
 

You guys are awesome, "Tick Turd". Keep it coming, cause I'll need all the ammunition I can carry. Watching the game with 10+ losers, so I'll be outnumbered 10+/1. Tick Turd......
