This is the year where true fans are made

A down year with a new coach. Guaranteed to not make post season. No star players in sight or in the making. Do you have the team's back?

Bro I’ve been rooting for the saints since a little kid in the 70s. I’ll be doing the same this year. If I ever turn pessimistic I’ll just quit being a fan. I don’t feel letdown when they play bad either. It’s a game

I watched them miss the extra point against jacksonville after the time expired and they scored a TD. I think Carney was the kicker

of course... i'll continue to HOPE they win every week, but realistically i KNOW they are not very good, thus my expectations for them will remain very, very low...
they may not be a very good team, but they are still MY team...

I survived Ditka, this is a walk in the park

Am I a real fan?
I bought season tickets for the first time in 1981 when Bum Phillips became coach after a 1-15 season. Tickets were way overpriced at $345 for the year for such a bad team.
HOWEVER, I made a pact with the Football Gods in a dark alley in the French Quarter at midnight under a full moon that I will never give up on the Saints if .....you let us win one Superbowl.

I watched that from a bar in New Orleans. Went from crazy loud to hearing a pen drop.

Hell this is what I’ve been rooting FOR.

I made it through 1980. I'm good.

We are in a rebuild. Everyone knows it. Just sit back and watch us tank this year for the top QB coming out of the draft. For me personally, if I've got something better to do on Sundays I'm not watching football. I've been this way since the no call though. Its all scripted.

Folks like me who have followed the team since its inception laugh at this.
Anyone who was around for the John Mecom era saw FAR worse than this.

I've been a fan since I was born. I don't need to prove myself to anyone. I'm a 3rd generation fan.

If people think the organization is run poorly now, and I am not saying it is or is not, they would have had a stroke during the Mecom tenure

Some do not act like it, though.

We're not going to tank; we're going to use our two young QBs in real games to evaluate what we have, particularly with Shough. If it appears neither is the guy, it will probably mean we have a top 5 pick and a legit shot at a good QB.

Perhaps better said like..."type of year more true fans will be made."
Cause we have always been here.
