FranchiseTY11 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Who is actually looking forward to the MNF game tonight with the Falcons at the Saints? With everything that is tied into tonight's game; the re-opening of the SuperDome, the first game back in New Orleans since Hurricane Katrina, it's kind of hard to root against the Saints tonight. Yes I am a die-hard Skins fan and season ticket holder so don't try to fry me on being one of those bandwagon fans just because I will be pulling for another team tonight. I'm just trying to see if any of my fellow Skins family can relate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellis Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I root for other teams. As much as I'd like to see the Saints win, I think Atlanta has this one in the bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[S.S.F. | Nero] Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I'm ahead in my fantasy league and my opponent has Drew Brees going......I'm rooting for a huge blowout/shutout by the Falkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casey56 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I'll be pulling for the Saints, but I have Vick and Dunn on my fantasy football team so I hope they do well. I'm not sure Atlanta is a lock - look what the Saints did last year to Carolina on pure emotion. That place will be rockin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#98QBKiller Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Well, I'd like to see the Saints take this one for everything it stands for, but I've got Mike Vick on my Fantasy Team!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roy182 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 As long as they score more than 51 total points, I don't care who wins... :D :D :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Tater Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 In NFL games, my first choice is based on who in winning would most help the 'Skins. If its a wash, who would make the Redskins look the best. If none of that, who my friends root for. If that's not relevent, I pull for the underdog.

mastaer Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 im gonna take a different view than the rest of you...id like to see the saints win, not because of any fantasy implications and not for support of new orleans what with Katrina and all(although i do think it will be great for their community). i want the falcons to lose for possible playoff implications. i hope the nfc south beats each other up so the skins might have a better shot at a wild card spot if they dont win the division(we will need all the help we can get) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redsknz4life Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Yea I'm difinitely looking forward to this game. I just wanna see M. Vick and R. Bush do thier thangs. I think it'll be exciting. I really don't care who wins, but if I did have to pick one....I guess the saints because of what happened last year (Katrina) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gray Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 This game makes me think of the Skins Giants game last year when Mara had passed. Everything went right for the G men that day and I think that the Saints turn in the spotlight will come tonight !!!! The Superdome will be rocking I imagine !!!

Donita35 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 ']I'm ahead in my fantasy league and my opponent has Drew Brees going......I'm rooting for a huge blowout/shutout by the Falkins. Me too dude. Plus my opponent has Bush. As much as I hate Atlanta and I want NO to get a win, I cannot bare to lose my fantasy game. :doh: Although, I will still win if perhaps Brees only has one touchdown about 200 yards and Bush rides the pine most of the game because Deuce is playing pretty good right now. In that case, go NO (but don't be too good). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranchiseTY11 Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 Seriously though, off of all that emotion packed into tonight's game for the Saints, do you really think the Saints are going to lose? I don't know. Vick and Dunn are playing really well so far this year, but that Dome is going to be ROCKIN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just trying to see if any of my fellow Skins family can relate. I'm happy that it's MNF because it's football. I love the game and will watch it regardless of who plays. As far as the whole Katrina hype machine that ESPN is doing - I'm basically unaffected. I was sorry for those people when it happened - and still feel bad for the ones who are sufferring today. However, it has nothing to do with me watching football or what team I root for. I think the whole Saints are now "America's team" thing is a little over done. Frankly, if I was a NO resident I would find it a little patronizing. If I was in that position I would tell ESPN "If you want to help, come down here and help. Don't claim the Saints and NO as 'part of the family' and then pick up and leave as soon as the game is over" :2cents: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
