Re: Glory Days of Years Past

The way this team keeps actively peddling NOSTALGIA, pushing it on their fan base, it really shows you where the priorities of the ownership and this organization really lie, and where their heads are at. Any thought for the future, or the present? Forget it. Katrina, and a single Lombardi, dude!

Go to the Dome, look up at the screens, it's a constant video parade of Brees hoisting the Lombardi on the jumbotron, confetti, Katrina footage, shots of Payton's fist-pumping celebrations from ten years ago -- it's even in a lot of their roster moves, like bringing Roman Harper back. I mean, literally one of their "game highlights" they celebrated on the screen, was Roman Harper running out the tunnel at the start. I turned to my friend and said, WTF.

Last night they were supposedly celebrating the Gleason block, while we are supposed to ignore the horrible muffed punt by a rookie UDFA that turned the tide of the actual game, right in front of our eyes. The Gleason block was legendary, don't get me wrong, but it was a decade ago now, and there already is a statue of it, and a couple of documentaries about it, another film about Gleason, and plenty of other things. Quite honestly it's a bit of an embarrassment to Steve Gleason, to have this current team out there, and it's an embarrassment to Drew to keep showing the videos of the Super Bowl parade and past Jimmy Graham goalpost dunks, with this current crop of players out there....
