Creating Canal Street Chronicles' New Tagline
I know we're all ready to start talking about the off-season and free agency - I promise we'll get to it - but we've still got some time and one last, important piece of business to take care of...changing Da Chronic's tagline. Yeah baby!
The current tagline is unbecoming of a world championship team. We need something to reflect the Saints most important triumph. But instead of me coming up with it by myself, I thought we should do this as a community. Here's how it will work...
You guys start shouting out your ideas in the comment section. They can be serious, they can be funny. They must be relatively short.
Then keep checking back to read everyone's submissions and rec the ones that you like. By the end of the day we should have a few gems that stand out. Those will then be added to the three I have already come up with or heard from CSC's members and be put to a vote. Those are:
- A world championship blog for world championship fans
- A blog for fans of the Super Bowl XLIV champion Saints
- Why not us...again?

Hey Dave
I have to admit the first thing that actually came to my mind as I started reading your post was “Why not us…again!” So I guess I would vote for that one! My next favorite choice would be the middle one since it references the specific Super Bowl and the team.

same with me on
Why not us…again! Was my first thought before I even saw the choices. Not sure if it will hold up as my preference over time, so I’m gonna cogitate on it a bit before voting.

I vote to keep the tagline the same.
Why? Because no one actually believes our team was the superior one fielded last Sunday. No one believes it. Everyone outside of the fanbase for the Saints is in denial.
“Why not us?”
It’s perfect. It’s succint. It’s fitting.
"I definitely believe in destiny, and I believe in karma and what goes around comes around. We have been on the other side of this deal probably too many times. Maybe it's our time that we start catching some of the breaks, and start being the team that wins them like this in the end." -- Drew Brees
How about - Us - of course!
Or to piggy back on Drew’s chant Us – AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN!!!!

Or, after being harassed all game long by a table full of Colts fans while watching the SB, who, every time the Colts did something good, would scream at our table “Who Dat!”, my response to them as soon as Tracy Porter picked off Manning (and while he was still running down the field):
“Dat’s Who!”

A little personal history on this one...
This is what my Ex said for years while watching the games. Every touchdown or great play the other team made he would always say “now we have them right where we want them.” I always smiled or laughed because it was always said when we were in a pickle. He wouldn’t say it much when we were winning-it was more to stick it to the other teams’ fans and it was a joke. What was so funny, for me anyway, was that I heard myself say it to my Colts fanfriends during the first quarter when we were losing, and I also remember feeling-deep down in my heart- that we HAD THEM EXACTLY WHERE WE WANTED THEM! I took comfort in the statement!

That's the point..sk
If you were new to the Saints fan base or a visitor you just wouldn’t get it. Coach is a lead foot driver. Petal to the metal and driving in the fast lane. He just rocks! None of that conservative crap. Heck, if half of the coaching staff didn’t have the damn flu on the NFC championship night IMO the game would never have been that close, but that’s just my opinion.

Yeah I kinda wondered just how much of our “getting outplayed” was the fact that our guys were nervous and how much was the fact that coach was sick as a dog.
Maybe we do need to face them in the opener so we can figure that out.

it’s good forever…..Let’s be special by winning back to back Super Bowls. Or three in a row. Or four or five. Let’s be special. Sports Illustrated said: "If there was a moment at which this beleaguered franchise crossed the threshold, it came with 10:39 left in the game, when Brees jogged onto the field trailing by a point, the best quarterback in the world fidgeting on the opposite sideline. The first time Brees gathered the Saints in a huddle, when he was a freshly minted free agent with a surgically repaired shoulder, receiver Joe Horn said the new QB let his teammates know: “I’m here to lead you to a Super Bowl, and anything else is despicable.” This time he said only, “Let’s be special.”
