You guys ever hear of a joke?? sarcasm?? I know it was obvious, I wasn\'t trying to be prophetic. Thanks for making me feel like a jerk. I\'m taking my ball, and going home now.

You can\'t blame me for being starry eyed after a bye week. I\'ve officially crossed over to Gatorman territory. I deem thee-moonshiner.

I understand completely.
The 2004 Saints season is kinda like your and your buddy racing his 2005 Corvette against a stock 1987 Cavalier and you get you asses smoked. WTF Happened?

Quote:"ya think Gates will be a factor?"
 

No Gator, Its like having a solid car, but the driver has no idea how to drive it. And people keep pointing out that the car is fine we just have an idiot driving it, but some people keep insisting its the cars fault.
Some of us have been calling out the drivers as the MAIN problem all along.
When the light turns green and the driver doesn\'t even know how to put it in gear, some self-proclaimed experts say \"See I told you so, that car sucks, lets keep trying to fix the car\"

BUZZ, oh I\'m sorry, that was incorrect, but thanks for playing :P

Quote:"ya think Gates will be a factor?"
 

Saintfan!! What do I win?!?!

Well Danno, you\'re half right. I think it\'s more like having a Ferrari with 4 flat tires and an idiot behind the wheel. Some of us have been saying all along that if we could just change the tires and get a good driver, the Ferrari should be able to beat just about anybody on the road. Instead, the idiot driver keeps losing races on 4 flats, gets out of the car and says, \"I really don\'t understand it, the car ran great in my dreams. Maybe I need to replace the fuel injection system with one from a pinto.\" Meanwhile, some fans are talking about making all the right moves, and how this time the Ferrari will really kill everyone else. Some of us have continued to mention that the racing team still has a pit crew that\'s so bad that even if they could get the right tires most of the crew couldn\'t even get jobs answering phones for other racing teams, let alone be allowed around the cars.

In any case, I like hearing you play the I told you so game now. It makes for a fun day. ;)

Anyone else ready for a new metaphor for why this team is phoning it in every week?

Quote:"ya think Gates will be a factor?"
 

I guess being a Saints fan is like being my dog a while back.

He was painfully mistaken when he thought I said, \" C\'mon boy we\'re gonna go to the Vet and get you \"tutored\"

Is this going to turn into another slap fest?

Quote:"ya think Gates will be a factor?"
 

No, but Gator\'s right. I said AB might go to the Pro Bowl this offseason. I think if I were to now say that I was a Brooks supporter all along some people might have a problem with that. Don\'t you think?



I\'m glad Danno has finally seen the light. That\'s more than I can say for some of his compatriots, who as recently as 3 weeks ago or so were posting that they thought Haslett was a good coach and the players were the problem.

Quote:"ya think Gates will be a factor?"
 

Well I\'m sure if you were to search all my posts (over 1000) I\'m sure you could possibly find a comment or two where I showed support for the staff. Not too many but I\'m sure you could if you really tried.
Fell free big boy. Search away. Try 2001, I\'m sure you can find something there.
I wonder if I could find a post or two from you that says you thought the staff was fine or that certain players were fine or that maybe you thought this team was good, like maybe predicting say.. 10-6 last year? ;)

The fact is you asked for proof that I thought coaching was the MAIN problem.
I go back to before the season starts and find 3 examples.
I\'m no hieroglyphics expert but I think this statement...
\"...its coaching plain and simple.\"
probably means that I think its coaching, plain and simple.

Maybe I should have used a bunch more emoticons! ;)

Oh and WhoDat... I don\'t get the \"finally on board\" coment. You and I have gone back and forth over player issues time and time again. We\'ve seldom disagreed that our coaching sucks.
I have stated and still think this team has a lot of talent. As does about every so-called expert I can think of. I don\'t believe you do.
Most of my disagreement with the moonshiners has been over what LB we didn\'t get or that the CB\'s will be the downfall of this team.
Thats a transparent backside told-you-so. Not gonna let that one slide.
