Preach it brother!

Personally.... Id much rather watch the Saints lose with Graham going 8/82 and Drew throwing for 333 than watch one more damn episode of any-damn-thing-else-onTV.

I do understand their frustration though. The last two Saints games anyone has seen have been painful. Seattle then Atlanta. They have earned the right to be frustrated and vent.

Win or lose, I will continue to be happy watching the Saints play on Sunday. It is a highlight of my week.

I don't know about two weeks ago, but what we didn't have last year was an appreciative, optimistic Dude. You go on with you bad new self, Dude.

I'm just waiting to see who will fill the gap.

i love the fact that all that crap in the off season in press clipping can be thrown out of the window finally. oh the greatest turn around. oh the greatest team on paper blah blah blah.

that stuff is poison i tell you. poison

not only for the players but the fan as well

might be a blessing that it happened right out of gate.

If the defense continues to get it butt whipped as bad as it did in Atlanta they are going to need all the TP they can get

Buddy, you need to get off your high horse. Nobody here, no matter how they are feeling today, is saying anything about not watching the team anymore. We're all upset because we want to win. Some people deal with it better than others, but we all find our own way of getting over it. It is never the end of the world.

You are notoriously pessimistic. I am sometimes pessimistic if I think there is good reason to be, but you post all throughout the offseason about things that worry you, and then after one game you think you have the right to turn the tables on everyone else. That's not how it works.

How is is supposed to work?

How does it work? By not contradicting yourself. I thought the point was pretty clear. In fact, I know it was. You're the eternal pessimist 99% of the time around here, and now you don't like that people are upset.

The Dudes high horse is a Shetland. Let him ride.

Mardigras9 · 09-09-2014, 09:57 AM

.....and looking at our divisions schedules this week, we could be tied for the division by Monday, it's all good. Splitting with Atlanta makes it a wash anyway, at least on the division level, hurts conference wise but Seattle's division shows promise early of not being a lock for them anyway.
LONG way to go.

Not to derail the thread but did anyone else notice it looked like the Falcons had just won the Superbowl w/ GM & owner on the sidelines, last few minutes of the game? They blew their wad in one game, can't wait to see the Falcons implode the rest of the season (I hope)...

The Saints are in their heads. From the owner down to the bandwagon fan, all they think about all the time is beating the Saints. It's a huge franchise inferiority complex.

But is it really a complex if it's true?
