Dont remember hearing anything about the crowd, what happened there?


It felt like being at Halloween and everyone but you was dressed up as a Mexican gangster. Then they would play that stupid Tony Montana song and get them all hyped up.

I remember a bunch of saints fans caught a shuttle from our hotel and the driver stops in the middle of the Mexican hood and said ok here you go. Everybody was like wtf???? The stadium was only a block away. I've been less worried in 3rd world slums.

To this day I still don't mind losing that game because if we had won it wouldn't have been pretty.

That game was going to be an all time great Saints win. I think we had 5 turnovers. Pierre's fumble at the goal line on the helmet to helmet and a fricking fumbled kickoff return. Then we hit the improbable bomb TD to Jimmy for the go ahead score late.

Roman Harper man up on Vernon Davis in his prime is still one of the worst decisions of all time. I was more devastated after that loss than even last year's Vikings game. That team deserved a crack at the Super Bowl.
