Ahhh yes, but you avoid the question I asked. Were you not a Saints fan prior to da "panther days"? Oh wait, I know. You were already affiliated with another NFL team besides the Saints due to some "former player" being on that particular team. The free country statement is a cop out excuse and everyone knows it. I do!Originally Posted by Zeebart21

Can't speak for Zeeb, but for myself, YES, I was a fan of another NFL team because of "former players". I pulled for the Raiders when Randy McClanahan played for them. I pulled for the Skins and the Eagles when Brian Mitchell Played for them. I pulled for the Patriots and Seahawks when Abbeville native Brandon Mitchell played for them. I was a Ravens, then Colts fan because of Brandon Stokley, and I am a Panthers fan because of Jake.Originally Posted by BSDetector007
I pull for the Saints because they are local, but I'm luke-warm about them in the best of years.
All that being said, I am at best a casual fan of pro football. HS and College is where it's at.

Detector makes no point, but your solid in response. I wish I had a dollar for every Tennessee Colts fan (via Payton Manning). One of my co-workers is a Vol fan who pulls for the Colts, and sometimes for the Titans. He isn't a Colts fan thru and thru. He is a Payton fan. If Payton somehow ended up in Miami... he would be a Dolphin fan. What is BS's point... that we love our Cajun players in the professional ranks? I know LSU fans who love wherever Shaq is... for Shaq. They are not Hornets fans. Again, what is the beef?Originally Posted by VObserver

There IS no point, really. Folks who are pro football fans tend to have A team that they identify with. All the people on this board who are diehard "Saints Fans" fall into this category. The rest of us just pull for whatever team(s) our favorite college players or hometown guys play for and for our 'local' team.Originally Posted by Just1More
When the Bears play the Colts Sunday, I will pull for the Bears because of Charles Tillman; but I like Peyton Manning, and Brandon Stokley [who is on IR] plays for the Colts, so I won't slash my wrists if the Colts win. By the same token, last week I pulled for the Bears over the Saints, but if the Saints had won, I would have been glad to see them advance. FWIW, I pulled for New England over the Colts because Antoine Spann was playing and Stokley wasn't.

Fellas, BS deserves no response from me or anyone. This dead horse was beaten to death on numerous occasions 3-4 weeks ago. He can search the archives if he wants to re-visit this tired sssed subject.

BSDetector007, you are some dense guy or maybe gal. This isn't your favorite NFL call girl board, it is about UL and things associated with UL. Now to answer your truly dumb a(s)s question. Of course we would pull for the Saints if Jake or any other Cajun were starting quarterback. We back teams with Cajun Players on them.Originally Posted by BSDetector007
