There ya go folks. Are you happy now. The Saints tried to sign your guy and he turned us down.
You said you\'d be happy. But, I get the feeling you won\'t be. Just like I was telling ya.... Now, what would you do to get him? Anybody? |

OH MY GOD!!! This made me feel at least 15% better. No kidding. Not only did they go after someone, or make an arbitrary visit invite, but they went after THE GUY, at least in my mind. If it\'s true, it lifts my spirits some. It gives me a small glimmer of hope. But ont he other hand, did we lay all our eggs in that basket with no backup plan?

Same thing happened last year. They went after Milloy, called to counter-offer, and he wouldn\'t even return their call.
That pisses my Black-&-Gold loving arse off. :mad2: |

Thanks for the reports, both of you guys, yes even your antagonistic arse Gumbo. I am telling you I have been furious for days, this makes me feel marginally better although, A) they didn\'t have a plan after Pierce and B) our organization is so screwed up from the outside players won\'t even visit. This is freaking terrible. I have to agree with you on that Danno.

Does that mean we shouldn\'t aim high?? I\'d think not. As far as I\'m concerned, we should just dust ourselves off and try again(with another player). Instead of being afraid to get their feelings hurt the team needs to approach this more as a business and less with a \"will you be my friend\" mentality. But I am slightly less pessimistic with this news. |

Man soooo much happening and so many dissapointments etc, etc. I want all theses positions filled just as bad as anyone but I take a look at the end of last year, and it makes me remember....follow along for a minute now and see if your in this boat too............
at 4 and 8, the season was lost, 6-8 at least getting to close to not being a joke, 7-8 all of a sudden 500 seems like a possible playoff spot, and finally 8-8, should\'ve been enough but the NFL\'S STUPID 3 way tie rule Screws the Saints out of a playoff spot! At the 4 and 8 spot this team was close to an all out house cleaning, Staff, players, Everything, Starting from scratch ( Just my opinion ) And I remember thinking, MAN if these guys could just have 1 more season to get it together...Maybe then! Then comes at the 8-8 finish and a pretty good last 4 games, Now this team has the owner ( Fans ) thinking the same thing! But as it seems With the Saints, We always want more, and are never happy with what we got. Now go get this guy, and sign him, We\'ll be the best then!! Same song just a different verse. When is what we got going to be enough? I like this team with or without any more additions! The Howard situation is still up in the air, and this team has done well in the draft, Let\'s focus on some of the positive , though I know it\'s tough. We all want everything and more...It\'s human nature! P.S I don\'t mean to speak for everyone when I say things like \'We\", Just my opinion, and way of staying positive for me. |
JENGA....I Win!
