	[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote name="laudablepuss"]Any thoughts about the upcoming Broncos - Saints game? Will Reggie taunt us and force us to score 100 points? New Orleans didn't get destroyed so the league hasn't issued any "let the Saints win" directives. Har har. Are you going to the game? I'll be there of course, with my dear old ma. (No really, she and I have season tickets.)[/quote] I have many mixed emotions about this Saints team! Haha, just kidding, it's the same fucking team they've had for the last 30 years. If you're trying to predict how they will do, throw out anything you know about them, and look at the opponent: <b>Q:</b> Is the coach in his first year? <b>A: </b> No, Mike Shanahan has been coaching for many years. Advantage: SAINTS <b>Q:</b> Is the team trotting out a rookie quarterback? <b>A:</b> No, Jay Cutler is in his third year, and looks fine. Advantage: SAINTS <b>Q:</b> Is the team winless? <b>A:</b> No, the Broncos are 2-0. Advantage: SAINTS "Wait," you are saying, "Those don't sound like advantages." You're correct, of course. But if the Broncos were led by a rookie coach that hadn't won anything, steered by a QB that couldn't tell his ass from a hole in the ground, then I'd be GUARANTEEING a victory. This is the exact state of the Redskins, who may not win another game all year. Honestly, I'd feel a lot worse about the game if the Broncos lost, because the Saints take teams that lost previously lightly. Which is AMAZING because they lose all the time. But I am beyond the sort of passion I had in my younger days. Do you know what it is like, laudable, caring more about a sports team than any of the players, any of the coaches, and the actual owner? I feel like a complete fucking moron. I'm going to the game, but I have no idea why. Mostly because it'll be ten years before they come round again, I guess. But I'm not going to enjoy it. I have tickets for just this game - we are in section 600 or something? I'll look it up tonight and let you know. I'd normally wear all my Saints clothes, but the friend I am going with is in a boot thanks to a broken ankle, and I just want to blend in, be disappointed, have my entire week ruined, and get the fuck out in peace and quiet. Do you guys still chant "IN! COME! PLETE!" when a QB throws an incompletion? Because I would ask, for just this game, that Alan Roach, or whoever the announcer is, changes it up and blames the worthless fucking receivers for letting the ball hit their goddamn Asteroid-hands, instead of Drew Brees. I don't know if you have the pull to make that happen? Yours Another Day Closer To Death, Ice Cream Jonsey[/quote]
