I have come to enjoy this habit during the offseason, kinda makes the time pass a little easier, however with the lockout & all, it may be bitter sweat near season time, but watching old games seems to give me my Saints fix & keeps me going.

My fav's this year;

06 - NO vs TB - Reggie comes into his own... scores 4 TD's
06 - NO at Dal - The look on Bill's face is priceless, Reggie does it again
08 - NO vs GB - Deuce's last home game, gets the all time record... always makes me tear up
09 - Most of these, including the playoffs, but the NE game in particular is fun over & over
10 - NO at Dal - Barn burner, love this one...

Anyway... those are just some of the ones that are get'en me through, how about you guys...

SF, not TB.

But absolutely - thrilling moments.
 
I just watched the 09 NE game again last night. My favorite 09 regular season game. So much fun to watch.

MM was a madman. His performance was like something out of a movie script. Well, actually if it was in a movie you would say it was cheesy it was so fantastic.

Haha I did too.

Gruden should have just said he was a Saints fan the way he was calling that game. It was great.
 
Pretty much the whole 09 season. But outside of the Super Bowl, my favorite game is the 06 game vs. the Falcons return to the dome.

Before that, I was just a casual fan. Always pulled for the Saints and wanted them to win, but it wasn't a big deal for me. But that night, watching that game, something changed in me. Seeing how much the Saints inspired an entire region that was still recovering, and to a lesser extent inspired me, it was just powerful stuff. Since then, I can't get enough football, especially Saints football.

Even better, they took it to Atlanta, which is always awesome.
 
I'm watching the Sunday night game vs. the Steelers from last year. Just watched a great goal line stand in the 2nd quarter by our D. Which was set up by a great challenge from Payton (who would have dreamed that up?) :)

What a great game! Leigh Torrence's first career interception. Our secondary was depleted, Porter, Greer and Robinson were out. Sharper came up with a big fumble recovery. The cat and mouse game between Drew and Troy P. was awesome to watch. The offense put up 20 against a very stout defense. Drew's 34 completions were the most against the Steelers since 2002, IIRC. Our running backs were Julius Jones, Betts and Ivory. Meachem, Moore and Colston came up big.

We were so banged up last year, and still managed to put up double digits in the win column. When you think about it, it was a pretty impressive accomplishment considering that.
 
12/27 (2010) Monday night game against the Falcons. Giving them their first home loss. I live in Atlanta.

Of course SB44.

just started the second quarter of this game. me and wifey went to nola to watch this game with a some friends. dont remember much of the game, just that we won.

this is the first re-watch of the year for me. with the lock out bs going on ive put off watching games just in case i have to fill a void later on in summer/fall.
 
OMFG, I have the same ritual, but my stupid Apt Complex has a contract with DirecTV and I was using Comcast so I had to switch and lost all my recorded games...only one I managed to record was the NFL Network Replay of the Playoff game vs the Seahawks.............needless to say, I rarely watch it "whomp, whomp,whoooooooomp",
 
Thats why I got a DVR with Cox meily on my 48 inch 3D TV. Looks great on saints game but even better in 3D when i shoot zombies on black ops.
