Try not to get too angry. It's all in good fun. And there's some truth in here. For instance:

quote:

The Saints have concocted the perfect nightmare running back platoon. Darren Sproles catches all the passes. Pierre Thomas gets all the long runs. And Mark Ingram gets all the plays where he's stuffed at the goal line twice before a frustrated Brees throws an effortless touchdown to Jimmy Graham on third down. If the Saints could find a way to use sixteen backs to gain 1,200 yards over the course of a season, they would.


Deadspin

3. Archie Manning. Archie had a completion percentage under 56 percent and threw almost 50 more career interceptions than touchdowns. Oh, but poor Archie had no supporting cast. If Archie's name were Aaron Brooks, they'd be burning effigies of him outside the Superdome to this day.

I like Drew Magary, he can be funny sometimes. But this is pretty unoriginal. Example:
quote:

When Drew Brees throws a pick, Saints fans are like GUMBO GUMBO GUMBO BREESUS CAN'T DO IT ALL HIMSELF GUMBO GUMBO PO' BOY ZYDECO POLICE CORRUPTION.

He used that same exact joke last year

Because Pierre never catches passes.

If the end result is a TD, who gives a frick?

I try to be objective about such things, but it wasn't funny. Whole lotta fail.

I think all of the "Saints Fan" comments were written by Chad.

Yeah just a terrible effort I guess he just wanted the emailers, who try too hard to be funny to carry the piece.

Yea he ended with a bad joke, but the rest of the point is valid.

quote:

Your quarterback: Drew Brees. Having Drew Brees as your quarterback means that every offensive possession will end in either a) a touchdown, or b) a horrific interception that Drew Brees is somehow never blamed for. When Tony Romo throws a pick, everyone shits all over him. When Drew Brees throws a pick, Saints fans are like GUMBO GUMBO GUMBO BREESUS CAN'T DO IT ALL HIMSELF GUMBO GUMBO PO' BOY ZYDECO POLICE CORRUPTION.

Not really. Romo catches more shite because his stats aren't as good and he's never won shite.

Deadspin does them for all teams before the season, calm down. It's a shame that some fans can't laugh at their own teams "issues". The Falcons one was pretty damn funny as was the Saints (even with the re-use of a joke they did a year ago).

I think we can all agree that this one was less inspired than last year's.

Easier material, obviously.

And, as always, the miserable bags of shite that constitute this fanbase deserve such torment. You people can't even speak English, or any fricking language for that matter. People from New Orleans just make a bunch of noises and pray that it comes out understandable.



That was a bit far! Even if they are playing I think "miserable bags of shite" is a bit over the edge....

Kige made the Titans one.

And one of their fan e-mails made me laugh:
