Hi all,
New to the board as up until last week I had not much interest in NFL.
I'm from Scotland currently on vacation touring the states for my honeymoon and New Orleans was one of my stops . Being renowned for its party atmosphere it was somewhere I was really looking forward to and looked at various other things that was happening in town and seen the Saints were playing the Raiders (Raiders are big in the UK) so I booked myself some tickets and read up on the rules!
OMG, what an atmosphere and energy in the stadium. You guys really get behind your team and it was contagious. I couldn't help but get caught up in it and I'm really looking forward to watching Sundays game now when I'm in Vegas.
I've been reading up on the recent history from the super bowl win and on wards.
Hoping Brees has another great game on Sunday and the defence turn up!
Thanks for making it a great day
Thanks for the warm welcome!
Yeah its been a great trip so far but the Saints game was the highlight.
It'a so cool how the whole place gets behind the team.
That last kick at the end, man if he converts that then the place goes crazy. Never mind, out of the 2 sides Saints where the only one for me.
Man those Raiders are bad winners! Plus the annoying Raaaaaaidersss... I never want to hear that again! Haha.
Looking forward to getting my Jersey ordered when I get back home, shame the games are on at 1.30am a lot of the time, tivo them and avoid the result.

Welcome, fellow WhoDat!
Hope you enjoy the boards and the season! If nothing else, our quarterback will put on quite a show.. Always wanted to visit Scotland. Such a gorgeous place and so much history. One day and with enough money saved in the ol piggy bank I will!
Very cool story man. You picked one of the best teams to be a fan of.
Next step... hate the falcons!
Yeah , I would really like to come back next year. So if I do it will be planned around a game
Welcome aboard buddy, you'll be hooked for life now
I'm from the UK too and most of the games are on at 6PM UK time (for example Saints v Raiders and versus the Giants our next opposition) it's only the night games in America which are of course on slightly later, usually 9PM followed by another game at 1:30AM. Then you have the Monday night (usually 1am onwards) and Thursday night games (1:30). Sky Sports have increased their Coverage of NFL drastically which is the good thing.
So in total you only have about 4 of the 16 games on at 1am or later
A member by the name of James K P streams Saints games but if you're watching on TV via Sky Sports and the match they are showing isn't the Saints then press the red button and select NFL redzone for Coverage of all the games with no commercials. Just a little tip if you can't stream the game somehow.
