It was a “good season”, but in a lot of ways, it was as more of the same.
God forbid you ever pulled for the Saints at anytime in your life….I’m not sure how you could go on living with both franchises being such consistent failures.

I’ve been a huge fan of Alperen Sengun since 3-4 months before his draft. I enjoy watching the guy. I also am heavily invested in his rookie cards. I also don’t mind watching young teams with no expectations. It’s freeing. I’m watching bc I enjoy the players/games vs not worrying about results. I honestly don’t care if the Rockets win. Maybe I will in 2-3 years when they are also in year 5 of their rebuild.

I was ecstatic when the franchise landed here, and I still enjoy the game and the possibilities. The acquisition by Benson was an undeniably
positive event at the time, and Gayle was fully onboard(in fact, she encouraged the purchase). I think she would love to produce a contender. That’s the vibe I get from people close to the situation. I will say that loyalty has always been important in the organization , and it applies to the Saints and Pelicans. Loyalty is reciprocated.

I like pro basketball and I think is pathetic to cheer against your home town team.
but i’m real tired.
when I was a kid in the 90s I was free to be a Jordan Bulls front runner. Life was good. Sure i was a bit listless for a couple years but then we got this franchise and we’ve had as many superstars demand a trade as we have playoff series wins.

Being a Pels fan feels eerily similar to being a Saints fan in the early days. Seems ownership isn’t invested properly, what talent we do have is suffering from sub-par coaching and correct talent acquisition/roster management, and fans have become apathetic.
Then there was some hope and finally success (1987-1992). Then another long drought.
But when the Saints finally won the Super Bowl it was the highest of highs. Nothing compared. And maybe that has kept me hanging on knowing 1) it’s possible and 2) if/when it does happen it’ll be an amazing feeling to experience it.
(However, the Pels could win 20 titles and none would match the Saints Super Bowl win for me. For many reasons.)
