Pats are a bit overrated to begin with. Saints are destructive.

I almost cried last night, not a Saints fan, but a diehard HATER of the Patriots!!!! Geaux Saints Geaux!!!! Just to see Brady stop playing like 6 minutes left in the 4th, ahhhh, beauty!!! I also think of how arrogant Belichick is. I mean to sit Brady for the final 6 minutes of the game of which they were losing badly, and also to play him when they were trashing the Titans a month or so ago, what a complete A$$!!!!! I hope they get pwned by the Dolphins, and end up fighting for the wildcard.... I hate them sooo much!!!

CB...I have to ask. Where exactly did that "who dat" thing start for the Saints anyways?

I agree DK...There are only a few teams in pro sports I can't stand and actively always root against: the Yankees, the Packers, the Cowboys, the Pats, the Lakers, and the Red Wings. THat game was supposed to be a test for these new Saints; I think they passed with flying colors and am convinced now more than ever that they will not only be in, but will win the Super Bowl.

There was a local song released in the late 80's and the chorus lyrics went like this..

Who Dat
Who Dat
Who dat say dey gonna beat dem saints
Who Dat
Who Dat
Who dat say dey gonna beat dem saints
Who Dat

It is a "New Orleans" thing with the way we speak, the strong french influence in our dialect makes us say words like "dat, dey, dem, etc..."
It all comes from the French heritage in the area.

Interesting...I thought the Bears were the only ones who had a song in the 80's...I think ours was better though.. :-P

From my dealings on the Spawn trading boards it seems that quite a few teams have their own songs.
The SB shuffle was somewhat "mainstream" due to MTV and to the Bears popularity at the time and the high profile Jim McMahon and William "the refrigerator" Perry.

My favorite part is the first verse from the greatest (IMHO) ever.. "Sweetness" Walter Payton.

I think they are gonna have to fight the Vikings for that spot. I seriously don't think any other team in the NFC is on their level. Not the Cards, Boys, Eagles, Falcons, none.

I honestly think the Saints could beat the Vikings.. This is a different Saints team than we are used to.. A more rounded team with a great offense, solid defense and decent special teams.

But, time will tell.

I definitely look forward to seeing the Vikes and the Saints in the NFC Championship game. IMHO, that is going to be the Super Bowl.

And I agree about Sweetness. No one better or classier...ever. End of story. I freely admit that I cried when he passed away. It is one of only two times I plan on crying in my life. The other will be tears of joy when the Cubs finally when a title.

EDIT: w00t! 2000th post!

I actually shed some tears as well. He was such a class act.

This week is just f*ed up. Haha

News Credits: 104 · by **Cyber Bishop** » Sun Dec 06, 2009 4:59 pm

12-0...

The big shock for me was the Pats lost 2 in a row..
WOW...

And the Saints clinched the NFC South..

WHO DAT.

News Credits: 2 · by **First-Aid** » Sun Dec 06, 2009 7:27 pm

Can someone please tell me what the hell is going in in the AFC? Oakland beats Pittsburgh? Miami beats the Pats? At least Cleveland is still bad...need some kind of stabilization in all this weirdness...

Barely, they are playing good but the are falling behind early alot, one of these teams isnt gonna let them fight back one of these days.

Like the Patriots in the past.
A good percentage of their games was won by 3 points, a lot of their games were comeback wins too.
A lot of the Colts games this year were come back wins.
A win is a win.
If they lose one or two in the regular season, no biggie, better to get that monkey off your back, shake it off and move forward.

No doubt, i think both teams are prime for a defeat, and now that both have clinched the division they may rest some starters which will make it more likely to happen but it wont be of an consequence. It will be an interesting postseason to say the least.

Uh...you are talking about Washington right? A team that started 2-5 against 7 winless teams?

Holy crap did the Cards beat the stuffing out of the Vikings. It wasn't even close. Brett Favre is starting to look like himself again. And some of the catches the Cards wideouts made were just amazing.

THat injury to EJ Henderson was nasty though...it's always bad when your foot is bent at the knee, but in your stomach...money says he tore ACL, MCL, and LCL, and the patellar ligament too. Best wishes on his surgery and rehab.

Jaguars still have a shot at the play offs ^.^
Didn't think that was possible this year

News Credits: 2 · by **First-Aid** » Mon Dec 07, 2009 8:42 am

Apparently there are only two things this year that are impossible:

The Browns scoring points...and the Bears having a 100 yard rusher.

People are saying the Patriots are only gonna win 2 of the last 4 games. I hope this is true, which means they will have to contend for a wild card spot. And I don't like the Redskins anymore, they are simply just a home team for me, but geez, it's so disapointing to watch sports center and have to turn to another channel when they are showing Skins game replays.

As bad as they are they almost took out one of the best teams this year.
