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!!!!!

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

Tony was not in Wash, DC yesterday.
Let his bad commentary begin!

I don't like all this Brees asskissing.
He’s great—probably the best. But this is just going to jinx us!

I wish I had tix tonight!
This is painful. I wonder if I can yell from here?

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.

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!!!!!!!

Night time on the City of New Orleans

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

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

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.”

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.

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.

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.

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

Other teams have the advantage in the dome.

Tonight's FF action.............
I need Brees and Moore to make up 7 against Reggie.
Tony offends me by making fun of saints fans.

The crowd sounds LOUD tonight!
With WhoDat cheers already going on, I anticipate a lot of TO’s for the vikes….

Why are the receivers getting a 15 yard cushion?
It’s prevent defense already? Gibbs is crazy.

Drive # 2 from the offense following a good stop by the D

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
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!

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

Tony
making fun of reggie’s “warning track power.”
I think tony can’t even bunt a decent MNF color commmentary.

3rd and 1
Why the hell are we running a toss play? Put Deuce in and pound the ball for 1st down.
