in a way.
300k.

But...tied with Bart to sf's 700k.
And a million east bay in easy driving distance.
6 million close enough to plan a day.

That's not like ft Wayne Indiana which had a Studebaker plant. The original nba pistons.
In the middle of nowhere.

That may be true, but since 2006 they have been one of the better franchises in the league


Will they have longevity when the Payton/Brees era ends?

Nobody is putting the Saints on the level of the Cardinals as a franchise but you already knew that, troll.

Did you just lump the Saints in with the Packers and Steelers my god the NFC Champ game really has broken NOLA fans. The melt from NOLA fans over AD is also further proof.

The OP said the Saints and Cardinals are both successful small market franchises, not that the Saints are on the same level as the St.Louis Cardinals.

But once again...you fricking know that.

If you read the Saints or Pelicans board it’s pretty obvious they aren’t the brightest Fanbase. Is this how everyone views LSU fans on the rant? My god.

lol, uh no

1 is a Historic franchise, who has rich history of winning.

Then you have the Saints, who are on par with Tampa Bay Buccs.

This Saints melt is just the tip of the iceberg compared to how we view LSU fans on the rant after a loss. But I will say that I don't hate LSU at all so this Saints melt has provided far more entertainment

My god. The piggybacking on a strawman in this thread...The Bills were mentioned in the OP too. Does anyone truly think he’s saying the Bills have been just as successful of a franchise as the STL Cardinals?

He’s clearly just stating that they have 2 things in common. They are small market, and they are/have been successful.

No, I have not knowingly met a Saints fan that posts here. Your point?

That its very easy to assume that a saint fan would view themselves as equal to the cardinals given the usual takes that come from saint fans on here. You dont get that?

No. That doesn’t sound like any saints fan I’ve ever encountered. Here or in real life.
