Congrats to the people of B&G

I went to that orange mane site the broncos fan recommended. There is definitely a gulf of knowledge, and or thoughtful observations. I just wish there was more people posting here. Although I tend to agree that our members represent the NFL elite in terms of humility, I would\'nt cry if our team gave us reason to be sassy. Losing and frustration are inextricably linked to the sort of soul searching that seeps into our posts.The question begs, would success really change us?

Try being a New Orleans native, now living in San Antonio, between Houston and Dallas? And being an LSU fan to boot an hour away from UT. And having tickets to the Dallas-Saints game on Dec. 12th knowing you could get humiliated but still willing to wear your Saints egar anyway?

I currently live in Dallas, will be at the game on the 12th, and I will be wearing black and gold. Just haven\'t decided which t-shirt or jersey to go with.

Thanks Guys, all this really helps. It\'s a lot of work. Hopefully we can get everyone to make it to the BlackandGold.Net game next year.

And a big holla from New Jersey, where Saints fans are eyeballed like the frequent traffic wrecks littering the concrete they call grass. I keep this site \"live\" not because the commentary is crisp, but because I can smell the oyster po\'boys on your breaths. It\'s not a choice, it\'s simply a force of nature to be a Saints fan.

Beat me, whip me, make me write bad checks. Go Saints, beat Denver!

There are tons of members on this site. What we have learned is all the personal \"beefs\" and BS we once allowed has prevented many from even trying to post because a simple subject becomes a hassle about everything but that subject. We have tried to push out the dead weight without offending everyone and we are seeing results. Let you guys be the regulars and be examples of intelligent conversation and posting. We allow a lot of fun and a lot of off the topic discussions, but we need members who can handle that. If you post intelligently we want you to feel like if someone acts like a moron toward you or anyone on the board, they\'ll be repremanded and sent off if need be.

Thanks for your patronage.

Beautiful, but mine\'s from a Muffalatta (sp?)
And its a curse, not a force.

Hey BNB, disagreements aside, it would be good to hook up with another Saints fan. I bought a Donte Stallworth jersey online from Sports Avenue as soon as they became available the year he was drafted, and I think it will be fitiing to wear during the game(since both may do nothing). I will be on vacation in the 504 for Thanksgiving though, so a Deuce jersey may be coming back with me. In either case, I think I am in section 209, and will be with a friend who is a Cowboys fan and another who is a Dolphins fan who just wanted to go. I can tell you the exact section when I get home later. I know we won\'t be the only ones there cause the Saints usually have a good showing in Dallas. Maybe we can \"rap a taste\" at the game, as they say.

I\'m about a half-hour from Tuscaloosa, homebase of the Tide nation. Not sure most folks around here know what the NFL is , so nobody seems offended by Saints gear ... just puzzled.

I have been visiting this site since 97 back when the saints really didn\'t have a main website blackandgold.net rules.

DomeFoam · 11-18-2004, 01:05 AM

I\'ve been on blackandgold.net since it seems before 1997. Blackandgold.net was the first website ever about the Saints. blackwidows said it, blackandgold.net was around before the Saints site and I have been here since then and will be into the future. When I lived in Tampa, this was the site I watched leading up to the Saints first playoff win and when after the Saints were moving and Benson decided to make a deal with the Gov. Now that I\'m back, I still love this site. We have to do a better job of gathering news like this site has always done. It\'s all of our jobs, everyone in this forum, every one of the 60 people logged in.

Props to this site always for staying alive for so long. It\'s a cool place and thank you halo and who ever keeps changing things for the best. That\'s why I stay around. :thumbup:
