That was awesome how empty the seats were in the 4th Quarter. That was great!!!
You probably could have taken a nap with how quiet it was at the end of the game!!
I was thinking the same thing..Seems the crowd gave up on them long ago in the game...I also loved hearing how it took all nite to get the field in shape after the LSU game last nite....Get used to this LSU, because your going to have a year of doing this if they play on your field next year.....
You got that right. LSU's field was today and given a month with both of them on it, it's going to be mush. LSU didn't want them 2 months ago. They won't be begging for them next year.
Yet another reason why Saints are comin to SA.
We can hope. Benson, Tag and Blanco should be meeting right about now unless they did it before the game. If I was Benson, I'd point out the field only about to get tier as a damn good reason to play here....inside with air conditioning.
Hey girl, were they doing their usual booing they do???..I thought i heard alot of boos on the Saints, unless i was hearing things.......
The sad thing is all you guys posting are dead on, but Tagliabue will take that half assed turn out and spin it as a great show and want to keep the Saints in Baton Rouge for next year for all 8 games. I have a feeling even though LSU might not want them in there Tags might make them an offer they can't refuse or some back door cash deal to the School to cooperate. I'm sure they won't care having some shwoogies work overnight to fix the field up
Barely 61,000 for your home team that you keep crying about not wanting to leave and , the damn state and all Saints fans had over two months to sell tickets and they can barely beat out our first game tickets sales that we only had two and a half weeks to buy.
61,000 in a 97,000 seat stadium that only opened 79,000 seats for the game today.
We are going to need a sell out for this next game.
We have almost two months to sell however many remain. I'm pretty sure we will.
I really don't care about the Saints in Baton Rouge since saintsreport.com has trashed us, but I heard that there was a lot of anti-SA signs at the game (I heard one said "Do it again Ozzy (Osbourne)!!!" ) Gee, and they say that WE don't have any class.
Who here wants to bet that next week's Baton Rouge game doesn't even crack 40,000 in attendence?
A lot of anti San Antonio signs.I really don't care about the Saints in Baton Rouge since saintsreport.com has trashed us, but I heard that there was a lot of anti-SA signs at the game (I heard one said "Do it again Ozzy (Osbourne)!!!" )

"Forget the Alamo."
"San Antone Ain't Home."
another I saw
San antonio are vultures
Guess what Louisiana, take back your refugees you ungreatfull asswhipes.
leave it to tpark to put it all in a perspective no one can support
Is anyone denying that SA in general, and Mayor McCheese in particular, looks like a pack of vultures when it comes to trying to land the Saints?
They've played their first ing game in Louisiana Sunday and we're in week eight, on top of listening to the powers that be in SA openly lust for their team for two whole months.
I'd be pissed too.
And like MB, I too wonder why someone who doesn't live in this city is so obsessed with its goings on.
Where did he (MB) post in this thread? And isn't this thread about Baton Rouge and the reception of the fans there, which you decided to hate on? And you're upset that they put up anti-SA signs?And like MB, I too wonder why someone who doesn't live in this city is so obsessed with its goings on.
Get some perspective before blindly throwing names and hatred around.
I'm talking about in the "other" threads.
I get why they had anti-SA signs. But I still they they're stupid for including an entire city for an owner and mayors doings.
Well, they had Ricky Williams to boo as well, so most of it was during defense because that way they could boo both and save energy. Seems the effort was being made by CBS to support the Louisiana angle and keep the volume meters turned off so we couldn't hear much. After the first quarter, I didn't hear much noise and by the fourth...well many had left. The signs really pissed me off. Forget the Alamo. Camera guy kept showing it.
On the news last night, I heard a comment by Tag and a quote from Blanco and LSU. Missing was a comment or mention of any kind from Benson. They ended the piece by saying things were still not settled, but Tag was going on about the Saints leading the rebuilding of New Orleans. Nothing on a facility other than using LSU.
No one really knows what's been going on with Benson and Hardberger. The lack of comments from Benson while Phil blabbered on is telling. They may have met, but Benson is smart enough to keep a lid on it until he knows more. However, the camera and CBS played this thing right so that the fans in Louisiana, who a lot, got their glory day and now may prove to be insufferable.
Wait a minute...I have been told in almost every thread that I have posted in on this forum that our (my) priorities are out order and that I shouldn't worry about the Saints because there are more important things to worry about.
Now when 61,000 show up to support the team it isn't enough for some people
Not to mention that paying $150 to watch a quarterback who can't even hold on to the ball without fumbling it could hardly be considered worth it.
This team sucks....they are 2-6, had 52 unanswered points scored against them in G.B, Couldn't score a TD against the Dolphins who aren't exactly the elite in the league.
Oh yea and there were several thousand season ticket holders (reported by local news station last night) that could not even get in to the game because the ticket office was so swamped with season ticket holders trying to pick up their season tickets for Tiger Stadium.
I think 61,000 was pretty decent all things considering.
La = hole = Fact
Opinions are like assholes....everybody has one.
I considered posting this in the Saints forum so many of you despise, but I thought you guys might enjoy it.
So I went to the ESPN Club in Disneyworld's Boardwalk over the weekend, and the featured player that was taking questions on site when we were there was Falcons kicker Todd Peterson. The host bantered back and forth with him for a little while, then opened the floor up for questions. One guy, a Falcons fan, asked him something about the UGA kicker and then nobody had any questions. The host implored the audience to speak up, so I stood up and asked if he had ever had a chance to rekick a shank to win a game after a defensive holding call like the mulligan he got in San Antonio.
He was quiet for a little bit, and then just burst out laughing and told us a story about he was lining up for a fifty yarder to win a game when he was in Seattle and Oakland got thirty yards worth of penalties before the snap, and then he banked in the 20-something yarder off the upright.

Hey, we got hit upside the head when our San Antonio numbers were in the 59,000-60,000 some odd numbers. Turn about is fair play. LOL
Oh and if you spent $150 for a ticket, don't bark about Aaron's performance. You paid to see it. In all fairness, it wasn't his fault. IMHO, a Dolphin should NOT have been in his face on every down, behind the O Line. Haz should tear up the line for failing to cover the rush.
