Will you root for the L.A. Saints?

i think i would at first but if in the long run i\'d probally be forced to find a new team. im not sure man it would be hard. probally easier for me though because im not from la. but they would more then likely change their name and unis. at that point it just wouldnt be the same

I wouldn\'t because we\'d have an expansion team soon if the Saints were to move. Hopefully we would do as well as the Jaguars and Panthers did when they came into the league. Also we wouldn\'t have Haslett or Venturi anymore... what\'s not to cheer about a new team!?!?!!

hey papz if that happen it would be worth it

If the Saints leave, we WILL NOT get another team. Ever. Unless the state and the economic situation in it does a complete 180. Also, we do not have anyone in the area who could afford another franchise. If the Saints leave, we are ass out unfortunately. That\'s why I understand why some are more vehement about the state doing whatever it takes to keep them. Expansion will not come to New Orleans if the Saints leave.

Hey, SW...do you think Archie would have enough money if he took on Peyton and Eli as silent partners? :thumbup: :thumbdown:

At least if the Saints moved to Los Angeles, we could all admit the obvious. The Saints SUCK.

CheramieIII · 02-14-2005, 08:41 PM

Hey Whodi, I have to agree with ya, if the Saint\'s leave the state we will never get another pro team, not just an NFL team. We lost the Jazz and now we hear rumors about the Hornets and Saint\'s leaving. I think the state will break down in the end and do everything they can to keep them for at least another 20 years or so. I would not support them, if they moved. They would not be the same ole Saint\'s anymore. Hey MatthewT, remember when the Saint\'s really sucked and went 1-15. We at least keep the opponents guessing nowadays, as to which Saint\'s team is going to show up.

MatthewT · 02-14-2005, 08:50 PM

Yes, Cheramiell, I remember the 1-15 season. I\'ve been a Saints fan since the Hank Stram era. Lots of pain. You are correct, we do keep them all guessing these days.

I\'m only hoping for one Superbowl before I die, but I guess my Dad died hoping for one too. I don\'t even care if we win just as long as we play in one.
