Did you notice the LOL at the end of that line? I guess you don't know that means it was just a stupid shot, not a slam. I'm from there.
Sarcasm is lost on some, ya know.
You have insulted people and flamed but no more so than many others here and they haven't been banned. Kori is not going to ban you for having a contrary opinion. That is the cool thing about this site is that you can freely express yourself without fear of banning. You haven't done anything worth banning and unless Kori says so, keep on expressing yourself.

What's sarcasm?
I got ya McKensie...I know what LOL means and I could sense the sarcasm. I only used that quote to return the sarcasm.Did you notice the LOL at the end of that line? I guess you don't know that means it was just a stupid shot, not a slam. I'm from there.

It's all good.
Plus, the Saints are a dome team

True, but they are on grass enough to deal with it. The problem comes when the grass is a mosh pit of mud.
Yeah, you and I both know that the Saints have disappointed us. But we've been dealing with that throughout the history of the Saints. They disappoint us almost every year. But we still come back, every year and love them all over again. And San Antoinio, you can not understand why we boo the Saints because they are not YOUR team and you do not have the history with them that we have. Joe Horn even said himself, "We deserved to be booed".
One day you'll get your chance, San Antonio, but it won't be with the Saints because we have good old Tag on our side. Win or lose, we love OUR Saints.
Been a Saints fan for 20 years. I don't ever boo them. You might, but I wasn't raised up that way.
That's great that you don't boo them, but if you have ever been to a Saints game in your 20 years of being a Saints fan you would know that there has always been booing. After you've been let down over and over and over again, it's a natural reaction. It has nothing to do with how you were raised. It's about demanding results. We Saints fans have a right to boo our team if they deserve it. San Antonio can't boo the Saints now because they're trying to keep them. Once the honeymoon phase is over and after 30 plus years of disappointing seasons, we'll see how many cheers they get when they run the ball on 3rd and 20 in the fourth quarter when they're down by a billion points.
You have Tags on your side??? LOL, but looks like you forgot one very important thing, WHO OWNS THE TEAM??? After you guys have treated him, i don't blame him now for sure to move his team elsewhere....Wanted a sure thing, then maybe NOLA should have bought the team yourselves, then you can talk about where they go and where they stay...Until then, Benson RULES all of you Tag lovers ass...Yeahhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

That's good stuff, Shiner Girl !
I think that's debatable.You have Tags on your side??? LOL, but looks like you forgot one very important thing, WHO OWNS THE TEAM???

Benson owns the team. But the NFL owns the game. They have only given permission for "The New Orleans Saints" to play in New Orleans. Benson needs the league's permission to play home games anywhere else.
It's an interesting connundrum for Benson, in that by forcing legal action on New Orleans (who cannot supply the necessary facilities) he may end up with no place to play (though I would expect Tag to blink before that occured)
Tagliabue serves at the leisure of the owners, and can ill afford to be seen as bullying one of them, lest they all gang up and Selig him. His role is really that of an arbiter, spokesman, and concensus builder among the ownership group. In the final analysis, he is an employee.
The Saints will play where Tom wants them to next year and beyond.
I've been to plenty of games. I don't boo because it's not professional.

Wow. A few things really need clearing up.
#1. Turnstile attendance at Baton Rouge was 62,000. If you actually believe that the Alamodome was full for the Falcons game, it's still only 3,000 less. And it's quite a bit more than the Bills game. I was at the Falcons game and saw with my own eyes that it was maybe 90% full as reported by some. I'm guessing 60,000 attended that game.
Add to that the 8,000 free tickets that Tom Benson gave away, plus corporate tickets (Baton Rouge does not have any big corporations, New Orleans at least had a few) and Baton Rouge absolutely smoked San Antonio. Baton Rouge is maybe 1/10th the size of New Orleans and is an LSU town. Baton Rouge has a little brother complex to New Orleans anyway and many dislike the Saints franchise.
I do not expect the numbers to stay up at Baton Rouge simply because of the Saints inep ude and the fact that many are still homeless/jobless and don't have the money to go to all four. Regardless, Baton Rouge still outperformed San Antonio, at least once.
And if you want to talk fan support... let's get in to how many empty seats were at the SBC Center last night. The stadium was half empty when the final buzzer sounded and was never more than 85% full from what I saw. On opening night, with a ring presentation, after a le year. Wow. Great job. You guys really are in a position to trash Baton Rouge's attendance. Not.
#2. Tagliabue already has "laid the smack down" on Benson. He made him play 4 games in Baton Rouge. He essentially forced him to sit down with himself and Governer Blanco and negotiate this past Sunday. If you think Benson is calling the shots here you are gravely mistaken.
If Benson were running things he wouldn't be running around trying to punch cameramen. That's his tantrum because he's not getting his way.
The discussion is starting to become moot. Unless S.A. can pull a new stadium out of its ass, like today, it's out of the running.
It looks like the New Orleans Saints are going to stay the New Orleans Saints for a while.
Now we get to see whether San Antonians pout.
Regardless it's pretty weak for you guys to be running smack on the Saints fans and the Baton Rouge fans given all of the will-call and line issues at Tiger Stadium, the historical support a crappy franchise has been given, and the fact that Spurs fans aren't exactly world-beaters either. I'm a Spurs fan too. I've gotten playoff tickets a day before tipoff for face value off of Ticketmaster.
some will...a lot won't.Now we get to see whether San Antonians pout.
OOp, wrong post, let me change this.
This guy LOOSE CANNON is was also known as ELLCEE on the spursreport causing all kinds of trouble then went back to saintsresport changing everything that was said to piss ppl off there...He also told those guys there that he was banned on spursreport which he was not....He's a trouble maker tyring to make himself look good on saintsreport....He's only here to cause trouble and report back to Saintsreport to cause trouble....Do yourself a favor and ignore this punk, because thats all he is...

This is a message board. Not a court of law. Who cares what you think needs to be cleared up!
Right on Shiner Girl.
You KNOW that you cannot boo when you're on post #69
Warning. Ownage Ahead. Not For The Weak At Heart
Enlighten Me.Wow. A few things really need clearing up.
So far okay. It's the longest I've agreed with you.#1. Turnstile attendance at Baton Rouge was 62,000. If you actually believe that the Alamodome was full for the Falcons game, it's still only 3,000 less. And it's quite a bit more than the Bills game. I was at the Falcons game and saw with my own eyes that it was maybe 90% full as reported by some. I'm guessing 60,000 attended that game.
Still with you.....Add to that the 8,000 free tickets that Tom Benson gave away, plus corporate tickets (Baton Rouge does not have any big corporations, New Orleans at least had a few)
Starting to get shaky in here, prepare for meltdown in 5...4...3....2..1.....and Baton Rouge absolutely smoked San Antonio. Baton Rouge is maybe 1/10th the size of New Orleans and is an LSU town. Baton Rouge has a little brother complex to New Orleans anyway and many dislike the Saints franchise.
OOOOHHHHHH NOOOOOO!!!!!!I do not expect the numbers to stay up at Baton Rouge
But all this time you have said that Baton Rouge and New Orleans can support it.....Have you finally seen the light...Welcome.
KILLSHOT COMING IN ......5.......4.......3......2......1.....

SO KEEP THE TEAM IN BATON ROUGE AND NEW ORLEANS DESPITE ADMITTING TO BEING ABLE TO SUPPORT IT. THE DAM HAS BROKEN.....simply because of the Saints inep ude and the fact that many are still homeless/jobless and don't have the money to go to all four. Regardless, Baton Rouge still outperformed San Antonio, at least once.
Funny, I didn't see you there in the stands. What section where you sitting in?And if you want to talk fan support... let's get in to how many empty seats were at the SBC Center last night.
WARNING, GRAPHIC OWNAGE BELOW, READ AT YOUR OWN RISK
REMIND ME HOW FULL TIGER STADIUM WAS AT THE END OF THE SAINTS GAME?The stadium was half empty when the final buzzer sounded
Was that a Wayne's World Line?Wow. Great job. You guys really are in a position to trash Baton Rouge's attendance. Not.
Thanks for participating......
