Second

I just saw the Saints inactive list for tonight’s game. Aaron Stecker’s name was NOT on the list. For the first time in a long time. Mark my words…I think Payton will use him as a secret weapon tonight.

Go Saints and WHODAT!!!!!

Berrian

I hope McKenzie can hold him to nothing. Why is Fugita always injured????

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:05 PM CDT   0 recs

Tony was not in Wash, DC yesterday.

Let his bad commentary begin!

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:06 PM CDT   0 recs

I don't like all this Brees asskissing.

He’s great—probably the best. But this is just going to jinx us!

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:08 PM CDT   0 recs

I wish I had tix tonight!

This is painful. I wonder if I can yell from here?

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:13 PM CDT   0 recs

Just do what I do when watching from my house in Louisville KY...

Direct your yells and energy at the TV. They WILL hear you, oh yes, they will.

by HansDat on Oct 6, 2008 7:20 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I think you are right!

I’ll also throw things around, if that’s okay…

Ditka is a dorktka

only 1 of 8 on ESPN to pick the Vikes

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:29 PM CDT   0 recs

shitka

wtf. He’s still bitter.

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:32 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

interesting...

I thought us saints fan’s were more ________ then to write out “FIRST”… with nothing else….

Ok, sorry… Just think it’s SLIGHTLY GAY when people do that….. I’ll check back in a bit, cause I can’t post on the open thread n watch the game at the same time, cause I’m not on Andromeda tonight… I’m actually getting to watch, with ALY!!!! (newborn) in HD!!!! be back later…

PS…. xen, don’t take it personal, that’s why I didn’t throw out a direct insult, just think the “act” is slightly gay….

beer thirty!!! saint’s thirty!!!!!! WHO DAT!!!!!!!

Dell must think I am REALLY gay

I was going to type THIRD

Night time on the City of New Orleans
Changin’ cars in Memphis, Tennessee
Halfway home, we’ll be there by mornin’
Thru the Mississippi darkness rollin’ down to the sea

Don't be a hater

Hey, I know saints fans are used to not being able to write first, but this year is different!

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:34 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

AP is fast, Saints will have to wrap him up tonight, you can’t knock him down, no arm tackles.

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:34 PM CDT   0 recs

According to ESPN

Us Saints fans are “just average”. They rank Saints fans 15th.

Here’s the excerpt:

“Bourbon Street is close by and that means the tailgate parties start Saturday afternoon. The party atmosphere fuels the Superdome. When the Saints are playing well, this can be one of the league’s loudest venues. Before Hurricane Katrina, there were rumblings the Saints could be a candidate for a move. But the team became a rallying point for the entire Gulf Coast in the aftermath of the storm and the fan base is now stronger than ever.”
— Pat Yasinskas

espn is dumb

they also think Bobby Hebert is the best Saint of all time when he wasn’t even in the top 10 on his own team.

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:37 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Tony K going off on Eastern Illinois… ruins the story.

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:37 PM CDT   0 recs

Yeah, Drew gets throaty, don’t he?

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:39 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Tony K: Drew went to Ray Lewis summer camp to learn that? Idiot.

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:41 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I hate Tony

He doesn’t know about any team outside of the DC area.

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:41 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Do we want Hank Williams Jr on our team, or not?

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:39 PM CDT   0 recs

Port of Call

Should put better TVs. That would complete my place as the best bar to watch a saints game! I also enjoy ACME.

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:41 PM CDT   0 recs

I hope

saintsational doesn’t tailgate. I saw where a car jumped a curb and ran into a group of people tailgating, sending some to the hospital.

by BayouRebel on Oct 6, 2008 7:43 PM CDT   0 recs

he rides the street car in, don’t know if he tailgates, hope not

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:45 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

DEUCE!

I love the deuce cheers!!!

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:44 PM CDT   0 recs

DOOOOOOCE!!!
Looking good

Hey Billy Miller started ahead of Campbell, I thought 80 was still out

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:45 PM CDT   0 recs

the feet were incidental

but the hand grabbing his jersey was PASS INTERFERENCE

by HansDat on Oct 6, 2008 7:52 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

what the hell

Was that first play an end around? I was typing. NFL.com shows DH with 1 carry, 1 reception

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:50 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

the excitement is giving me chills!

Now I really want us to get like 10 sacks

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:49 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

what?

too early to say such terrible things! This is still the time when we are hopeful!

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:49 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

this needs to be 41-0

and lance moore needs to have another big game. He is on my FF team.

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:50 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Lets hope

the Vkes are loaded with blanks!

by BayouRebel on Oct 6, 2008 7:49 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Tonight's FF action.............

I need Brees and Moore to make up 7 against Reggie.

Tony offends me by making fun of saints fans.

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:51 PM CDT   0 recs

The crowd sounds LOUD tonight!

With WhoDat cheers already going on, I anticipate a lot of TO’s for the vikes….

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:53 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

2.5 yards?

omg they should just kill this kid. You know he’s getting the ball. Just blow him up!

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:54 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

watch the Saints O-line on shotgun plays

it seems to me that Brown is very close to false starting FYI

by HansDat on Oct 6, 2008 7:53 PM CDT   0 recs

Why are the receivers getting a 15 yard cushion?

It’s prevent defense already? Gibbs is crazy.

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:56 PM CDT   0 recs

Gibbs Gumbo!!

Good pressure, Will Smith

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 7:56 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Bobby McCray time!

I hope he can grab a sack

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:56 PM CDT   0 recs

That's what I like to hear!

I hope we can demoralize these cold weather loving bastards early!

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 7:59 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

DH

Again!!!!!!! for 50

by BayouRebel on Oct 6, 2008 7:59 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Drew really launched that one

They failed to scout DH, didn’t they?

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 8:00 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Saints rollin'

Reggie 9 yards outside

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 8:01 PM CDT   0 recs

another penalty on a nice Reggie run

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 8:02 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Hey everyone.

Everyone looks like they came to play tonight!

by MattHaggard on Oct 6, 2008 8:01 PM CDT   0 recs

DOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Time for a 3rd down conversion!

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 8:01 PM CDT   0 recs

Goddamned refs are so against us.

seriously, every game we have to hear this crap?

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 8:02 PM CDT   0 recs

I think that was a hold

by stujo4 on Oct 6, 2008 8:03 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

definitely

but they let these go against the other team.

Bottom line is the Vikes need to make a tackle and an extended arm shouldn’t be the difference.

Stupid ref is messing with our momentum!

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 8:04 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

yeah, just rewound it on TIVO - good call by ref

but Karney didn’t need to block like that – he should have just run through the dude instead of diving at him

by HansDat on Oct 6, 2008 8:04 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Tony

making fun of reggie’s “warning track power.”

I think tony can’t even bunt a decent MNF color commmentary.

by xen-cuts on Oct 6, 2008 8:03 PM CDT   0 recs

3rd and 1

Why the hell are we running a toss play? Put Deuce in and pound the ball for 1st down.

by Steve the fan on Oct 6, 2008 8:04 PM CDT   0 recs

ya

that’s what i’m thinking, too.
