Honestly, it doesn’t matter. We can beat all of the other playoff teams until we have to go to Lambeau. Packers will whoop us again.

You said it right freaking Lambeau, going to Green Bay in January is like the Arctic probably be a blizzard there.
But we gotta get there first before the Saints bring out the Parkas.

Stop it. WE DESERVE THIS AS SAINTS FANS! Saints win against the bears, (notice I didn't give them a cap on the B). We win against the bears. IDGAF about them, I care about the Superbowl. Drew will get us there, if it's on his last rib... This is it boys... I'd rather the Seahags honestly...

Edit- Seahags, then the fudgepackers please.

We can beat GB on the road. There is a chance they might not make it out the first game and we will have homefield. The Bears shouldve won. They dropped at least 3 INTS. Losing their LT for the year doesnt help . If we do have to play them in GB i hope it is a blizzard. Our run game and run defense is much better than theirs.

We wouldn't expect you to be. It would be out of character.

LOL. I know man. I think the way the playoffs have ended for us the last couple of years has me overly worried.

Re: Who to pull for on Saturday

I will probably watch some of these games just to check out the competition. It's hard for me to watch football because of the sloppy play and lopsided officiating. I am fairly tightly wound and seeing that upsets me to no end. I can't help it. I take medicines to keep me relaxed but one bad call sends my blood pressure up.

I usually mute the game and listen to my music. It's the officiating that is the problem with the NFL and they won't work on the problem because they are getting their desired results. Big market teams are favored over small market teams. The fix is in. It's not a sport. It's entertainment. Well, I'm not entertained!

Sloppy play? I've been watching NFL football for my entire life. Play is no more sloppy now than it has ever been. The big difference is that every play can be rebroadcast from 12 camera angles on 20 different channels and picked apart. The athletes playing today are so elite that they can make other elite athletes look silly on certain plays.

The same thing with the officiating. There was no replay to show errors. There were no rebroadcasts of games to see mistakes. Officiating today is probably far more accurate than it has ever been because it is being held to a standard higher than ever. I'll assure you that there was far more holding being done in the past. There were single camera angles. No replay. Poor lighting. Poor field conditions.

Like I have said many times in the past, NFL football IS entertainment. That doesn't mean there has to be a fix. NFL football has ALWAYS been entertainment. That's why tickets are sold. Major League Baseball is and always has been entertainment. The same for every professional sport. Their whole premise is for entertainment. That doesn't mean that they are fixed.

I watch every game I possibly can, Saints or other, and am never turned off by style of play or officiating. Sure, I don't like it when a call goes against my Saints, but it surely doesn't affect for my love of the game.

I hope you someday can just enjoy the games for what they are meant to be and not make anything more of them.

Who Dat, my friend!
