Saints fans: Pull for a long shot, or get out your draft sheets?
Chris Miller Reporting
The Saints' season looks like it's on the ropes: eight losses, and a lot of teams ahead of them for the NFC Wild Card.
The best the Saints can do with their season now is break even, and these fans say don't expect the Black and Gold to be playing in January.
"They're dead. They dead, man," one fan told WWL First News on Monday morning. "They out of there. Next year."
"It's really 'next year' time, now," said another.
"I'm hoping some teams lose, but I doubt it" said a fan, acknowledging that mathematically, at least, the Saints still have the slimmest of chances. "I don't think they're getting into it this year.
But, with those slimmest of chances, lottery-winning odds that the Saints could make the post-season, there are plenty of fans never say die.
"We just gonna fight until it's over, you, know, 'til it's over," one optimist said.
"You can never give up on the Saints," said another. "We'll get it."

LSU fans proudly donned shirts that read "Geauxmaha" at the College World Series. Perhaps they should trade them in for shirts that read "Geaux-home-aha." That's exactly what LSU is doing after just two games in Omaha, and until they change a...
It's hard to believe two of the top baseball programs in the country are looking at a "two and done" scenario at the CWS this afternoon. The Tigers and Tarheels have gone back and forth in the national polls as the number 1 team in country, with LSU...
Sure, Alex Bregman's error in the 8th inning led to the go-ahead score for UCLA in a 2-1 win over LSU. Catcher Ty Ross also committed an error as well in the 6th inning that lead to a run. However, those are physical mistakes. The mental mistake of...
The LSU Baseball team took in a practice at Bellvue East High School just south of Omaha on Saturday. The team, and their coach, seemed very relaxed.
