Saint_LB

When I say the Saints are losers, I have history backing me. I do not enjoy making this observation, because I truly have been a huge fan of this team from the beginning. Nobody would be happier than me if somehow this organization could get turned around....and nobody would be happier than me if I could no longer say this. The thing that makes me wonder the most is why this ownership is so tolerant of mediocrity, while other players and coaches from other organizations are always on a much shorter leash. I don\'t pretend to know all the answers, but I feel compelled to ask the questions.

Regarding AB, I feel the same way. Nobody wanted him to become a superstar more than me. After 2000, I was one of his biggest supporters. Then things started changing. First he stopped scrambling, then he started back-pedaling, then throwing ill-adivised passes and interceptions, and last year the fumbles. This year it seems to be a combination of all of the above. I think he has had a fair shake at it, and it just doesn\'t seem to be happening. The funny thing is that I feel that in the right scenario, he probably becomes and all-pro...if he could ever just learn to relax and play. I don\'t think that is going to happen here, and, what is really scary is that it may not be possible for anyone to make it here. Archie couldn\'t, and I think Archie was a pretty talented football player, but , somehow, this organization has always seemed to bring out the worst in it\'s players...and that seems to be the whole problem. Are we truly cursed?

Whether you think you can or think you can't...you're right!
