We're on a 3-game losing streak. Can we please just try having someone different start the next game thread? We can still win the NFC South if we go on a hot streak and get a few breaks.

If we lose, the current guy can resume his duties. Even if we win this week, the current guy can be next up for when we lose next. With the current guy starting every game thread for the past 1.75 seasons, we have a record of 12-17. This is despite having the most talented roster in the NFC South.

Once again, I offer to self-ban and not post again on Saints Talk for the rest of the season if we follow this policy. I want the Saints to win the NFC South and have a crack at Dallas or Philly in the Wild Card game in the Dome.

It's not over yet. If we lose this week I'd be on board him continuing to tank our season. I'd still like to try. We still have a 37% chance of winning the South according to advanced metrics.

His last post on this board was Sunday right after the game ended. He never participates on this board except to start game threads and run his schtick.

Unfortunately none of the following will enable Dennis Allen to be competent:
1. The colors of the endzone.
2. The uniform combination.
3. Who starts the fricking game thread.

I've never claimed that the endzones or uniforms impact our W/L record. I've simply observed the MSB Astros threads and how that group handles their game threads. I've watched the Astros have the greatest 7 year run in American major league sports over this time while they honour the power of the game thread starters and always change after a loss and always have the same game thread starter after wins.

Have you considered that the game thread is offered to Saints Talk by a sub-contracted paid agent of the NFL?

You seem to be the only person making this request on a regular basis. Simple solution, you don't want rt3 to start the thread, then you start it.

It's literally the parable of Solomon and the baby. CURRENT thread starter would rather saw the baby in half.

People don't like me enough to side with me given a binary choice. Its the primary downside of being a provocateur. That's why I'd be happy with anyone other than me or current guy starting it.

I honestly had no idea the game thread was still? a big thing?


even if I was watching the game at home alone I wouldn't think to post on TD.

That pretty sad you guys.
