That tells me they lack intestinal fortitude and play down to their competition at times to the point that they get beat. Not the makings of a champion this year. That's not Sinner hate, I would say that about anyone, including us.

And they get absolutely no credit for beating the worst team in the league without their starting RB off rip and losing their starting QB and replacing him with two sorry(at this point) rookies. You want to say they're improving for that but not give us props for a win over a decent but underachieving Bengals team and a solid(no matter how skeptic you may be, 5-2=5-2) Bucs team? Wtf.

Speaking of which - do the Saints get any credit for embarrassing the "solid" Bucs at Tampa?

Sorry dude, I just don't think the Bucs are good.

Why is the homerlicious crowd so sensitive? I don't get it.

We'll find out tomorrow if the Falcons are ready for prime time. No need to jump on me because I'm not impressed with beating the Bucs, the same team the Saints embarrassed on their current 3 game winning streak.

And my apologies for believing in my team. Its a damn shame more talk is going on downgrading our team and being skeptical than there is being amped up and having faith that our team will whup ass and have a 7 under that W in 24 hours. If those of us who believe in our team and are reasonably frustrated with those who are being "objective" are homerlicious, then those of yall who are continuously skeptical and finding fault in our victory and are annoyed by those who are ride or die for our team are trolltastic.

I use homerlicious as an affectionate term, I even use it to describe myself when I am feeling that way.

I never get annoyed at anybody. That's kind of my point. Why are the most optimistic also the most easily annoyed? Just doesn't make any sense.

Ah, gotcha. *rescinds trolltastic comment*

I get annoyed by people who are overly skeptical/disrespectful/etc. of anything I love. From my cousins who didn't think their sister was gonna graduate college to people on another message board I get on not realizing Lupe Fiasco is the GOAT to people not having faith in my 6-2 Falcons. This is the type of thinking I would expect of a Chiefs(basically any fan who has nothing to do with us) fan, not people who are supposed to love, or at least like, the Falcons as much as I do. Not questioning anyone's fanhood, I just can't stand the attitude towards our squad.

The nature of things. No one likes having their parade rained on.
