You don&#039;t like what you see, then stop looking. Stop following me, stop stalking, and stop posting as me. And buy a concordance so that when you read your bible and pretend to be what you clearly aren&#039;t, at least this time you&#039;ll understand the words. 



Ken Strickland, 




Some people just won&#039;t quit. They&#039;re sick, or something. No cure for that sh!t either, apparently. I guess being intelligent is a curse. For some reason, it makes some people automatically assume you&#039;re white or something. Weird....


Yeah, I notice our resident naysayers are what you call statisticians of convenience. They&#039;ll conveniently throw out stats that see to bolster their argument, but are in fact somewhat misleading. And they&#039;ll conveniently leave out stats that damage their argument. Pretty transparent. Kinda like truth serum. Heh...</description>

		<description>JOE PROFIT#23-I don&#039;t know if you&#039;re the real Joe Profit, but you certainly do have a solid grasp on preseason and it&#039;s effect on the Falcons. I&#039;ve tried to tell those fans who are in panic mode that this was an evaluation process and our coaches were trying to find out what we can and cannot do well and who they can count on to get it done. Well, I&#039;ve received a lot of flack from those who like to spend their time pointing fingers and blaming everyone and everything in an attempt to justify their personal insecurities. At any rate, welcome aboard.</description>

		<description>BIG RAY-Have you noticed how BIGSLEAZY69 and his imaginary friends consistently focus on the alledged advantage QB JFlacco has in arm strength and the fact Flacco won a playoff gm? Have you also noticed how they go out of their way to avoid comparing any individual awards the 2 QB&#039;s have received, or their individual stats? There&#039;s a very good reasoon for that, and it&#039;s because MRyan, not JFlacco, received ROY and Probowl honors and his individual stats are better in every category.

I&#039;d like to ask BIGSLEAZY AND HIS FRIENDS 2 questions. (1) HOW CAN A TEAM THAT LEAD THE NFL IN TOTAL OFF, HAVE THE 2009 STARTING(STRONG ARMED) PROBOWL QB, FINISH LAST IN THEIR DIVISION AND WIN ONLY 8 GMS? 

(2) DO ANY OF YOU CLOWNS PLAN TO DESIGN NEW BAGS TO HIDE YOU FACES FOR THE UPCOMING SEASON, WHICH SEEMS TO BE A NEW ORLEAN SAINTS TRADITION, OR WILL YOU GO NOSTALGIC AND WEAR THE SAME ONES YOU WORE LAST YR? HEH, HEH, HEH.</description>

		<description>I DIDN&#039;T KNOW YOU COULD SCOUT DB&#039;S AND CB&#039;S FROM MUNCHKIN LAND! OUR SECONDARY IS TOO SHORT! THE AVERAGE WIDE OUT IN THE LEAGUE IS SIX FEET PLUS. THE TALLEST MAN IN OUR SECONDARY IS 5-11. AND SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY J-ANDERSON IS STILL A FALCON? I STILL HAVE FAITH IN MY COONS THOUGH. AND THEY NEVER REALLY GAVE SHOCKLEY A REAL CHANCE. BUT HE ALSO THROWS TOO HARD.</description>

		<description>JOE PROFIT#23-I don&#039;t know if you&#039;re the real Joe Profit, but you definitely know football and what to expect during preseason. That&#039;s more that a lot of our fans who are already in panic mode and ready to jump off the bandwagon can say. I&#039;ve gotten a lot of flack from fans for saying our secondary will be fine, CB CHouston will be fine, DE JAnderson won&#039;t cause us to lose any gms and preseason is not an indication of things to come. 

BIG RAY-have you noticed how BIGSLEAZY69 and all of his other simular personalities make constant references about MRyan having a weak arm and JFlacco having a cannon? Yet, they avoid mentioning that MRyan and his weak arm outperformed JFlacco in every passing category, and he did it without the benefit of a pass catching TE. MRyan, not JFlacco, won ROY honors and a Probowl selection as an alternate. Yet, these/this fool(s) are all totally focused on something as trivial and subjective as perceived arm strength and using that, and that alone, to judge the 2 QB&#039;s. I guess when you don&#039;t have much to work with, you do what you can. Oh, by the way, isn&#039;t it about time for these clowns to start designing those paper bags that&#039;s become so popular and necessary for anyone that&#039;s a Saints fan? Or do they plan on going nogsalgic and wearing the same ones they wore last yr? IT REALLY DOESN&#039;T MATTER, IDIOTS CHOICE.

BIGSLEAZY830(and all of your imaginary friends)-while you&#039;re putting down the Falcons and QB MRyan, please answer this question. HOW CAN A TEAM THAT HAD THE #1 RATED OVERALL OFF, THE #1 RATED PASSING OFF, THE 2009 STARTING(STRONG ARMED)PROBOWL QB, FINISH LAST IN THE DIVISION AND MANAGE ONLY 8 WINS? Back to life, back to reality, heh, heh, heh.</description>

		<description>Craig, 


They are straight up fools. They can&#039;t explain how ol&#039; &quot;Noodle Arm&quot; helped this team that was supposed to go winless to 11 wins. They hate it so bad, it makes their little nappy heads hurt. After watching a supposedly weak team with no chance, they are willing to stick their little pencil peckers on the line again and say we&#039;re going to lose. It&#039;s so funny, I&#039;m about to crack a rib from laughing. 

Where&#039;s Big Sleazy830? The Saints got their blocks knocked off by the Dolphins in preseason. &quot;Back to Life, Back to Reality&quot;....blah, blah, f&#039;in blah...</description>

		<description>E43, 


I&#039;m with you. Falcon faithful to the end. Haters beware. That sticky stuff on your teeth and that bad taste in your mouth after predicting a Falcon demise last year? Oh yeah, you&#039;ll be having the same problem this year. I hope you&#039;re hungry...</description>
