Boycott until Allen is removed (2 Viewers)

I like to buy Saints gear every now and then. But I can safely say, I'm not spending a dime on anything Saints related until Gayle or someone in the FO says enough is enough.
 
I know this will sound weird (and be weird):

Being a long time fan myself I actually take some pride in loving them just as much even when they’re terrible. To me that’s true fandom. I’ve felt that way since I was a little kid being made fun of for being a fan of such a terrible team. It made me ever more proud to be a fan.
This is the sad part of being a fan.

Tonight I stormed out the dome. Deleted the app from my phone. I want DA fired like now, but by Thursday next week the app will be back on the phone and I will have some kind of way convinced myself that we are gonna win out the rest of the way.

Sometimes I think they take our loyalty for granted or worse yet they just don’t care.

I get it. 💯. Was that way for a long time.

To your last point, 99.9% don’t care, at all. It’s just a business to them, and I’m not dogging them for that. At all. Just factual.

Yep bc they know whatever they do, people are going to come back. They will threaten to move teams if they don't pay for a stadium. Hell this city is broke with an NFL team so what's the difference?? I guess I reason for ppl to leave their problems behind and go right into another one.....I call bull
 
Mickey should go. But that leaves Gayle to pick the next one. I don’t think she can do it. Maybe the league would help her find a competent GM, but if they don’t, we’ll end up with Bobby Hebert.

Gayle wouldn't pick the GM. Dennis Lauscha would pick the GM and Gayle would give her approval. I doubt Loomis goes after one bad head coach hire, but if he does, that is how it will work.

I don't think it is weird i have been a Saints fan since birth and will be until i die.I have been a season ticket holder since 2001 and i have no intentions of ever giving my tickets because things ae bad.The saints are family to me and always will be a big part of my life. In 2017 when i was in the hospital not expected to live i told my niece that i did not want season tickets to die with me. She even contacted a lawyer in Texas where i lived at time to draw up a will for me with that provision.The Saints are family and i will continue to support them in life and death.

No doubt it is. That good franchises don’t just focus on the results nonsense Loomis was spouting off earlier in the week says mountains about what this is.

Sad part of all this for me is, I feel myself starting not to care.

Say what you want about Saints fans but something we have never been is apathetic. If this keeps up I am going to end up spending my fall Sundays out in the gulf and become one of those guys that has to ask are the Saints playing this week? Who are they playing?
 
About time!!! I said this two weeks ago. Stop spending the money and showing up at the games. That will send a major message to the organization.

true fandom and that meaning is different for everyone, if you decide that it isn't in your best interest to suffer and sit through this horrible torture then it doesn't make you any less of a fan. I used to think if you didn't sit through the whole game, you weren't a true fan but that has changed my time is important and if I have better things to do, I will definitely go do it. Definitely more power to you if you can sit through it. It's not weird it's your way of being a fan.

Absolutely agree. Wasn’t trying to come across as a better fan than anyone else. Just my unique way of “fanning”. I was very abused as a kid and the Saints were like my way out, my super hero….hard to explain. They never left me so I’ll never leave them.

Only fans I don’t respect are the fair weather who jump from front runner to front runner. Other than those types I certainly don’t wanna gatekeep or tell folks how to fan.
