Saints Superstitions...
 
Anybody have any superstitions before, during, after Saints games that they swear works?!?

Lucky Hat, Shirt, Socks?

Routine like geauxing to Church?

Particular Meal?

Avoid Certain People, Places, Things?

Never wear anything Saints related on Friday. Make sure to make love on Saturday night or Sunday morning (or both) at the latest. Eat a great breakfast that includes bacon and two bloody Marys. Sit out on the back deck with my lady and look at the mountains for a bit with a cup of good coffee.

Yep, make a good game great and a bad game liveable.

I used to. I don't anymore. I enjoy the games much more now.

I was the same way; used to always wear the same jersey or switch it mid game if something wasn't going right.

I have come to the realization that nothing I do or say will impact the team in anyway; makes game-days so much easier and fun when you don't have to worry about "jinxing" anything :bng:

Deuce Mcallister jersey. It's not a guaranty but it's definitely got a good winning percentage. It won us a Super Bowl.

Biggest Mistake of my divorce was not getting my Vintage Saints Jersey and Red Sox Shirt out of the house the first night...

2 Hours before I look for the right jersey in my closet (White, Black, Throwback, whatever jersey the team is wearing)
1 Hour before I put up a facebook post
Kickoff I find a spot on the coach and never move until halftime.

I know what Dude does: He posts here that there is no point in watching another Saints game because we are definitely going to lose.

Then, after watching us lose, he takes his meds, and Sybil-Dude shows up here to tell us the sky is not actually falling and chin up!!!

Then, right before the next game, Dude comes back here and tells us there is no point in watching another Saints game because we are going to lose.

Then, after taking more meds and watching us win, Sybil-Dude shows up and says how great we are and how we will definitely be winners next week!!

Until the meds wear off. No superstition required -- just Class A pharmaceuticals!!!

But, this season, his schizophrenia is kinda understandable.

I never wear any of the opponents main colors. Since most teams have black or white, those get a pass. I call my kids and make sure they're all wearing their Saints gear. Then I make sure my girlfriend isn't wearing any of the opponents colors. Socks, underwear, everything.

Good idea. I'll do an under garment check at work and remove any undesirables.

Popeyes Chicken is not as good as it once was...

Danny's Fried Chicken in Morgan City and Houma is closer to the original...

Makes sense as Al Copeland, Popeye's founder, got his fried chicken start with those people in Terrebonne, Lafourche, St. Mary...

No Viccaro jersey AT ALL last night. I guess if I'm wearing it, he can't; so take it off and he shows up? (although he wiffed the sh!t out of that backfield stop)

You are all VERY welcome!

Past couple of weeks ive been really conscious of my tie/ cuff links and belt buckle combo.

Thursday night turn around caught me on the hop shirt wise, so i had to cut holes in a non-cuff link shirt so I could slot them in.

We won, so ALL G!

Get it in Sync, my brother!!!

Re: Saints Superstitions...
 
I used to have them, and it seems like they all got proven wrong. For two weeks in a row now, I've done absolutely nothing superstition-y and they've won for two weeks in a row.

So I guess that's what I have to do! Nothing!!!

Got my Saints "Rally Cap" back yesterday; very stoked to get it...

My daughter told me that the former Mrs. wears my Lucky World Series Red Sox Shirt when mopping or cleaning the bathroom...

Lil girl said that when she saw my shirts and reached for 'em that her Mom told her "don't think about it..."

So we've got confirmation that the Lucky Shirts are being held hostage...

ARGHHHH!!!

Since I don't think I have any influence on the games I don't follow any superstitions.

Sounds like you got someone on the "inside" should negotiations fail and you need to run a TRAP mission, ;) ... keep your chin up, this too will pass, :).

Oh, it's all good now, except for my old lucky shirts...

Want to get one of the Saints Throwback Jerseys with my daughter's birthday for the number and JeanPierre for the name...

Start over and see if it'll be my new Lucky GameDay Shirt...
