I never understood the Saints fans who constantly want to jump up every twenty minutes and declare

"that's it, the window is closed."



As if the whole world isn't waiting for it to happen?

The folks who are always going on about the window closing -- I have to ask, what else do you people do the rest of the time?

Do you sit around in hospitals, and wait for them to stop pounding on the chest, and declare the patient is dead, so you can jump in with your watch and declare the time of death? Do you stay up all night waiting for the last election results, so you can run past the winner's podium and go declare who is the loser? Do you sit around at airports and wait for people who missed their planes, so you can run up to them and taunt them about it?

What kind of person lives day to day, waiting for "the window to close" so they can jump up and be the first one to announce it?

I just don't understand the mentality of it. I don't understand the psychology of it.

The window is NOT closed, and when the day eventually comes and it finally IS closed, trust me, EVERYONE AND THEIR GRANDMOTHER WILL KNOW IT. There will come a Sunday, something will happen, it will be universal, and we will know it and it will be so intuitively obvious to every living soul, that WE WON'T NEED ANYONE TO TELL US.

So the very fact that someone actually wants to DEBATE that the window is closed, shows me that it clearly isn't.

I've noticed over the years that some Saints fans act like winning is all a crazy dream, and they subconsciously can't wait to wake up from it and go back to losing and being miserable again. Well, that's not reality, and that's not going to happen for a while yet. There are A LOT of things still left to fall apart, implode or turn sour, before the window actually closes.

WE ARE FIRST IN THE DIVISION. There is plenty of rebuilding and reloading already going on, and plenty more that needs to happen still.

After winning 19 or twenty-something games in a row (not counting 2012), we were actually waaaay overdue for a home loss under Sean Payton. Not the end of the world.
