What's Wrong With Me?
After the Saints' fourth loss in a row to start the 2007 season, the radio color analyst asked and answered: "What's wrong with the Saints? -- Everything." Following a 10 minute drive in the third quarter, Mare kicked a 20 yard field goal about 6 feet off the ground, right into the helmets of the defensive line. In four games, Drew Brees has 9 interceptions and 1 touchdown pass. Our defensive secondary is terrible, Deuce is out for the season. It's ugly all around, on offense, defensive, special teams, and coaching. The biggest problem with all this is that I care so much. So more than the Saints players letting me down, I've let myself down for caring about this stupid game played by spoiled rich athletes. Will I watch the Saints fall apart next Sunday night in Seattle, and go to 0-5? Every single minute of it.

Well, at least you can comfort yourself in the knowledge that Notre Dame won this week. Unlike the Saints, we stopped short of 0-5...
It could be worse - you could be a life-long Cubs fan!
Chicago
Well, this is much improved since your writing! I know these are dirty words but at least you're not a Falcons fan. There's not much sports joy in the A-T-L right now. Go Rockies!
