The Saints are alright

We promise to bang out the long form post sooner this week than last. In the meantime, Saints fans, quit squirming. There will be plenty situations this season where a desperate, physical, professional football team throws everything it has at the defending world champion and comes away with an almost win to show for it. When I was growing up, there were many many games where the Saints and their fans felt like they almost had the defending world champion 49ers only to see things slip away at the last second.

Saints fans certainly understand how the 49ers feel today.
San Francisco's Frank Gore also led all rushers with 112 yards on 20 carries. Gore had a 12-yard touchdown reception from Smith and ran seven yards for a touchdown on the 49ers final, tying series. The 49ers finished with 417 totals yards to 287 by the Saints.

"We know what we can do," said Gore. "We just have to stop beating ourselves. We whooped their behind up and down the field. They can't stand with us. We beat ourselves for the second week in a row. That has to change."


But, also, fuck them. Feels good to be on the other side of that shit stick, doesn't it?
