What Saints fans must do

Well, here's the deal.

The Saints are coming back to New Orleans, for 2006 at least.

If we want to keep them, there's only one thing to do.

SELL OUT EVERY GAME IN THE DOME.

We have to. We must do it.

Without Artie Fielkow it will be an uphill challenge, but hey, we gots to do it. If the dome is sold out for every home game, then Benson will NOT be able to move the team. All of his bitching and whining and moaning will be for naught, and he'll have to deal with us, 'cause Brother Tagliabue ain't gon' let him move.

How heartless would it be for Benson to move the team after a year with full sellouts in the dome? Impossibly heartless. So heartless, Tags would not let him, state subsidy be damned.

So, I'm buying my season tickets right after the super bowl. And hey, Tags, while you're at it, we could use another Super Bowl down here, homes.

You know the old joke...

"They are going to move the Super Bowl to New Orleans next year permanently."

"Why?"

"They don't want any team to have the home field advantage."

It was funny when it didn't stand a chance of being true. Now come on, let's make sure that it stays funny.

I like the spirit of your proposal, but taking the the "under" on Benson's potential heartlessness may not be the smartest way to bet.

Yeah...I'm kinda putting all my eggs in Tagliabue's basket.

The only other option is to tell Shinn to hang out in OKC another year, since the Saints will be gone by 2007.

I'm sorry, after many years of pulling for the Saints, allowing Jake Delhomme to win the starting QB job elsewhere was the last straw. I'm a former UL-Lafayette athlete myself. After seeing Jake get rejected by the Saints and then get a shot at the starting job in Carolina made me look at the Panthers. When he won the starting job in week 1 of the 2003 season, me, my family, and a bunch of coon asses from Lafayette, Breaux Bridge, and Cecilia said the hell with Benson and the Saints.

Go Ragin Cajuns and Jake Delhomme!!

I miss my favorite Catfish with hspepuupihs and turnip (or collard) greens. All the catfish out here tastes like mud. Glad to hear you tasting the flavor again! You were getting skinny

I don't know whether he is giluty or innocent. What I do know is the vile and vitriol poured out on him by the likes of Mark Shea, Jimmy Akin, and Elizabeth Scalia (the Anchoress) has left me breathless. Their behavior shows them to be nothing more than arrogant over-rated "professional" Catholics. They have acted despicably! He just posted the sheep, wolf, sheepdog story and one priest left a comment over at some blog calling it "fascism." Huh??? And then the commenters proceeded to vilify people that lived in Idaho and Montana as a bunch of moronic militia types (I live in North Idaho.) These people better wake up to the fact that there are some problems in the Church (which mirror the problems in this country) and they are not part of the solution!
