Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.

or my all time favorite

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Thanks, Hagan; knew I could count on you, Brother...

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Sucks but the local news after the game was cool. One of the Saints was also going to medical school then the linebacker talking about investing in real estate. Before that they talked about the MNF audio/video equipment.

That running game gave me a chubby.:bng:

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Blast y'all! Picking at those scabs from the past!

Will never get over that 1980 Niners game. 35-7...at halftime! I'm bettin' some of the younger fans today would have picked up camp & left for good after that one. And if the B&G.com were in existence then, that's all that would have been talked about until the rest of that season and most of the next.

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Stabler looked so old, he looked like he was almost 60 out there. I don't think I ever recall a player looking that old, maybe it was just all the gray hair.

Rams knock Saints out of playoffs 12-18-83

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

One word. Letitgo............ You'll live longer. :razz:

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

The one that really gets to me is when The Rams Flipper Anderson catches 2 tds for 336 yards on Monday night to beat the Saints. If I ever see his mother I will punch her right in the mouth.

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

I will never get over the 2011 Divisional Playoff loss to the 40-whiners!

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

I'll never get over that one and only preseason loss in 1967! It was all downhill after that.

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

So many horrific losses...to many to keep track of. Best to just let them fade away like the quality of those VHS tapes.

New Orleans Saints 27 at Dallas Cowboys 30
Sunday, October 21, 1984
Up 27-6 going into the 4th

Sunday night game, my freshman year in college. Had a 7:45am Monday morning test.

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Again, Flipper Anderson's 336 yard recieving in 1989.......

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Hartley's kick and Porter's pick made all the heartache worth it. :)

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

THIS SUCKED BAD!!!

But this still has to be the worst!

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

thanks cher just when things could not be any worse. lol. us old dogs have our wounds

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

I remember going to a friends house for a party in Birmingham. We had nothing but Falclowns fans there. I was drunk of course and they all wanted Minnesota to win and I couldn't say **** after the first quarter because it was all downhill from the first play.

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

This is the one that still cuts deep....

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Did the Saints offense take the day off? They were hardly on the field.

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

I was living in MPLS at the time and people were all getting in my face and they could not understand why I was not upset. When we left the bar a friend ask me why i was not upset.

LMAO I said it was simple. We made the playoffs for the first time and that is all that matters in the end.

we made it

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

I was still Luv Ya Blue at this time.
Im glad I missed out on this one.

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

I saw his last game in Dallas in '84... The Snake Stabler Horror Show, where we blew a 21 pt. lead. He was an old man in a field full of men in their prime, and he didnt belong on that field. It was the one time I was screaming for Dave Wilson.

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

I was there... had a 3 hour drive home. it was like a funeral. Oh,and the game went until 1am, overtime, because of presidential debate.

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Im gonna do this sometimes, guys... bring up some old blasts from the past, because I think our history is part of what makes us who we are... The fact the we kept loving a team that not only wasnt good, but found creative, and even horrible ways to lose. And we'd march right back up into our seats, and we raised holy hell. The best fans in Sports. period.
--this is what made me a Saints fan.

And when we win now, I think of you guys who sat in Tulane Stadium, who believed Archie was taking us There, Who sat thru the Bag years. This win's for You.

This is a Love I fear is lost on younger fans that did not go through it all.

The art of looking for anything and I mean anything to hang your hat on as a step in the right direction year after year after year was a saints fan true skill back then. Old time saints fans can find a silver liner somewhere in a season loaded with turds. But do not try to wrap those turds and sell them to use either. They are still a turd no matter how pretty the wrapping is.

I remember years when the national media was actually amazed at how educated saints fans were to the finer points of the game. Heck ESPN did a special on the knowledge saints fans had in regards to special teams and how best to use it. Even our women knew more than than the reporter. Chris Berman and the crew at the desk were amazed and educated by saints fans. Never sell our saints woman short. It was all we had for 3 or 4 years. We all became very well versed in all phases of the game at the pro level by the time Payton came to town,

So do not try to to pull the wool over our eyes and then force kool aid down us. we know better

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
“He who doesn't understand history is doomed to repeat it.”
“Those who don't learn, or can't remember it, are doomed to repeat it.”

say it which ever way you want but in the end it always end up

“We're doomed to repeat the past no matter what. That's what it is to be alive. It's pretty dense kids who haven't figured that out by the time they're ten.... Most kids can't afford to go to Harvard and be misinformed.”

You got that right, the wife gets just as loud as me during home games. Her favorite player was Lance Moore

Those who live in the past don't understand the meaning of "Now" There is no past ,there is no future, only Now!

Re: Old Schoolers. Im Still Mad about this Game.
 

Hagan, I noticed that our women are more knowlegeable than a lot of men who root for other teams.

fun stuff. I enjoy history. Even reliving some of the bad history. Statues belong in the Circle.

I'll be in the Dome this fall. So Im perfectly relevant to the present.

Enjoy my thread.

It stays. : )
