I said we have been consistently mediocre in the past. But I have no problem reflecting on past failures and identifying where the problems lie.

If as a fan you choose to pump sunshine and rainbows I don't have a problem with it. I think when it becomes an issue is when you go around attacking the other members of the board for talking about facts and why they're hesitant to get sucked in again and not really look at who this team is, etc. Pump sunshine all day if it tickles your fancy, but leave those with a critical view of the team to share their thoughts without being bothered.

Since you are so hung up on fact checking please show me how you arrived at that conclusion. Show us the quote of him saying that. Really I want to see your translation of what you think he said. What would lead you to believe that he because he values the past he must think we are going to have the same record.

:lolup:

The Triumvirate of negativity converge! This is too perfect!

You feed off of each other. The chum of negativity is in the water.

One thing I can say for sure is I specifically remember the dude and dizzle still on the board last year during the losing. We stuck with the team through the entire year, ups and downs!

Bullcrap. Those two weeks I didn't post was because you posted nothing but negative venom. Non-stop. You didn't stick with the team. You lambasted them constantly. You went on and on about how they sucked. You pointed out everything that you felt was wrong with them.

Yeah, You supported them.

Sad.

Re: Playoffs or bust?

You aren't sticking WITH the team now. You are sticking it to them. All you do is run them down.

Re: Playoffs or bust?

Oh, and, of course, once again, for the umpteenth time you post ...

7-9 for the last 3 years and 4 of the last 5!

Is that the only tune you know? Get over it dude. You post the same tired crap three or four times a day. Holy crap you get old.

:rolleyes:

Who cares if we say what's wrong with the team, that's sports and this is a discussion forum. I'm looking forward to the season as much as anyone, but talking about previous failures is part of sports and it's not always sunshine and rainbows.

If you get so wound up about it, then let the posters that are mature enough speak between ourselves and don't comment if you can't do so without causing an argument.

Me? A fair weather fan? LOL You definitely don't know me. I have watched every televised Saints game since the team's inception. The games I couldn't watch I was glued to a radio listening to every play when the games were available. Those games I couldn't get on radio (no computers back then) I found another game that was giving some sort of updates. When Sunday ticket became available I was among the first to get the package. Now I NEVER miss watching my Saints.

I have checked in to this site numerous times every day since I joined almost ten years ago. Before that I was a daily visitor at "that other forum" since July of 2004. Had to leave that cesspool when I found this great site.

I have been right there giving my heart and soul to my Saints win or lose.

Fair weather fan? Do you have a clue what that is even?

fair-weather fan
A person who is supportive of and enthusiastic about a sports team only when that team is performing well. I've been rooting for the home team in their playoff run, but I'll admit I'm just a fair-weather fan.

I am the opposite of a fair weather fan. I am ALWAYS supportive of and enthusiastic about my Saints whether they are winning or losing.

A fair weather fan would be critical and unenthusiastic about a team when it isn't winning. That my friend describes the three of you to a tee.

A fair weather fan is someone that only shows up when the team is winning, which can't be said for anyone of us as we would not be here right now.

As I said, if you don't like what we are discussing then move along and we will continue to discuss between ourselves, we don't need your input.
