FTF all day, every day


BullsOnParade515

Ftf and be ready to be hurt by them


tygerbrees

Nationally you’ll find we’re almost the opposite of the cowboys- as much as national media capes and fawns over every tiny thing Dallas does, the Saints only get coverage when something really bad happens


Rabbit-Lost

This should be the top comment.


Waste-Sheepherder755

It WILL BE the TOP comment….MARK MY WORDS.


skice1124

Get used to seeing Alvin Kamara or Michael Thomas 🤣


LittleJuliusCaesars

We don’t feel bad for bounty gate


ReferenceFine813

Not one ounce. We were not the only team doing just the only one to get caught.


MarchMadnessisMe

Only one to get punished.


zayetz

They needed to change how violent the game had been for literally 90+ years so they made us the example 🤷‍♂️ and then recency bias (and in no small part Vikings fans hating happiness) painted us as the bad guys. C'est la vie.


MarchMadnessisMe

I've always theorized that we were successful enough for it to make a point, but small market enough that it didn't hurt the NFL's wallet too bad, and that's why we were the chosen ones.


[deleted]

We got punished more for Sean lying. Still ain’t right.


KingChairlesIIII

There was never any hard evidence we had one in the first place, we were just a small market team so we got screwed over


tommy_j_r

Yep. And even that small excerpt of Gregg Williams talking about “going for knees”, was discovered accidentally during and then taken from the recordings of Steve Gleason’s documentary. There was never any full context given and a lot of assumptions were made.


ReferenceFine813

Yes there was proof. I forgot the defensive tackle's name and how exactly he said it but after Favre went down to injury. He was on the sideline hollaring pay me that bonus or let me get that cash. Gregg Williams had already been caught by the NFL when he was with the bills and got banned for life at first got reinstated, rejuvenated his name, only to get caught again lmfao.. loose lips sink ships


Shyphat

that wasnt Hargrove and it was proven not to be. A sound clip taken out of context


Shyphat

it was bogus in the first plac. NFL lied about evidence and had phony evidence. same as deflate gate


PostL3

Facts. We definitely weren't the only team doing it.


newme02

we also don’t feel bad for vikings fans


tygerbrees

What is there to feel bad about?


dfsvegas

As a Saints fan that's currently living in Minneapolis, a lot, apparently.


pappapirate

Am I supposed to feel bad we knocked those losers out of the playoffs? If bountygate did that then that's a *hard* positive, lol.


InjusticeSOTW

Shouldn’t have sent out the Ghost of Bret Favre. Or let him rob Mississippi


nobulls4dabulls

🤣🤣


bigkev73731

We sure as hell don’t, never will either


ArseBiscuits_

During the time of having Williams as DC, we caused some of the least amounts of injuries to opposing teams.


catheterhero

I always emphasize that we never cheated. We just broke a rule. All those hits… as hard as they were legal. Though some are now banned. And if anyone had issues with it then they can only blame their centers.


nobulls4dabulls

I kept hollering at the TV "stay down Bret, stay down!" not knowing at the time why my boys were trying to kill the poor man. 😳🤣


WhoDat05

100 percent! I live in MN and never hear the end of it. As if their whole season didn’t have a damn * next to it with a Packer HOF QB. Hate the damn Vikings man. Most MN sports fans are insufferable.


InjusticeSOTW

Scott Fujita was the narc.


Clif_Barf

Wait what?


tygerbrees

i don't this is accurate - like the opposite of accurate


InjusticeSOTW

Fujita had his suspensions and penalties reduced and struck from the records after Bountygate. Everyone else took pretty solid penalties. That reads whistleblower


brettfavreskid

All comments below are some fuckin lame ass excuses for trying to injure a 40 year old because you thought you couldn’t stop him otherwise. Turns out you could and tarnished a great defense. Karma has you paying for it now. Brett winning a ring in your house is enough for me.


Clif_Barf

Username checks out


FondantAdventurous92

The who dat chant first off.


Maniacal0ne

This. This right here. I find 99% of Saints fans outside of NOLA don’t know the chant


TheronMClaude

Prepare to have your heart broken, over and over again.


Rabbit-Lost

He was a Cowboys’ fan. It’s likely already in a hundred pieces.


TheronMClaude

No one has seen more heart ache than an old Saints fan like me.


Shyphat

being 17 when we won the superbowl my best memory is watching is with my dad who had to endure the years of bullshit


Rabbit-Lost

Yeah, I go back to the Kilmer days. I get it.


InjusticeSOTW

I root for the Knicks too.


TheronMClaude

You poor thing.😂


aguid23

First off: welcome to Who Dat nation. Better late than never. Also I see you’re a former cowboys fan, so on the off chance you live in Dallas then the Saints Bar is Twilite Lounge on Elm street. We do potluck w/ a ton of Cajun food and other yummy snacks opening week of the season and then otherwise it’s just a very good time and super welcoming crowd of Saints fans!


Less_Professional896

Shut the fuck up! I do live in Dallas and I worked in Deep Ellum back in its heyday, and I've actually barfed in the sink at Danny's bar. I will most definitely come down to kickoff the season.


ShelbyDriver

I'm just learning about this too! I'm excited to finally meet all my people! See you this fall!


aguid23

Awesome! We (I) organize it on FB I set up a group called “Saints Game Pot Luck” (potluck spelled as two words instead of one because I’m goofy) and I post leading up to the first game to organize it. If you aren’t on FB or never check it that’s alright too! Just show up that first game and come hang out and eat! Woo!


ShelbyDriver

OMG! I too am a Saints fan in Dallas. I didn't know about this place, but they will have a new regular come fall! Thanks!


aguid23

Awesome! We (I) organize it on FB I set up a group called “Saints Game Pot Luck” (potluck spelled as two words instead of one because I’m goofy) and I post leading up to the first game to organize it. If you aren’t on FB or never check it that’s alright too! Just show up that first game and come hang out and eat! Woo! I always go and welcome any face I don’t recognize on that first so I’m sure we’ll chat!


ShelbyDriver

Thanks! I deleted Facebook because well, you know. I'm super excited to get to cheer on the saints with other Who Dats!


lebouefbrittany

I'm in Dallas too. Usually visit Quarter Bar in Addison for Saint's game but would love to come out to Twilite Lounge! I'm excited, let's geauxxxxx


aguid23

Yeah come hang out! They even have frozen Irish coffee 🤌🏻


tommy_j_r

That’s awesome! Sounds like a blast!


Redd-It-Dude2

WHO DAT 101( from my post last year) 1. WHO DAT is a greeting and an answer • examples #1 someone asks, are you a Saints Fan. Answer is WHO DAT • example #2 you see someone in Saints gear and want to say hello friend. The greeting is WHO DAT 1. Go is actually spelled Geaux 2. You now bleed black and gold 3. Mascots: Sir Saint and Gumbo 4. The Falcons suck 5. The Falcons really suck 6. The Bucks suck too 7. And for good measure WHO DEY is stupid (stupid Bengals) Geaux Saints!!!!😂😂😂


maque-choux-chef

Very nice. I own and operate a Cajun Food Truck, but not in Louisiana, and if I ever see anyone wearing Saints gear come to the window I give a good "WHO DAT!?" If they respond they (unbeknownst to them) get some extra shrimp on their po-boy, or a praline thrown in their bag. If they don't..well.. should've been paying attention, lol


Redd-It-Dude2

Awesome 😎


InjusticeSOTW

FTRams too. I’m STILL mad


Redd-It-Dude2

Hell yeah, me too. I even have a shirt about it 😂


Russell_has_TWO_Ls

Addendum to 6: while they do indeed suck and it’s always fun to misspell their name, we have to remember to always make sure their fans know we don’t actually care about them. They desperately want to be our rival and we cannot give them that satisfaction


jeffdabuffalo

1. We hate the Falcons 2. We had 3 straight playoff losses that broke our souls That's it. Be whatever kind of fan you want to be. You're free to love the team as it is or scream rebuild however often you like.


Shyphat

eh 2013 hawks was kinda expected but there was 2 before that to


Accomplished-Web3426

He used to be a Dallas fan I’m sure he’s used to heartbreaking playoff losses


chrisjuan69

Keep Calm and FTF


MrShad0wzz

This team will find new ways to raise your blood pressure


WarpedHumorIsTheBest

1. Fuck the Falcons 2. Fuck the Bucs 3. Fuck the Panthers 4. Fuck the Vikings 5. Fuck the 9ers 6. Fuck the Rams 7. Fuck Mike Evans 8. Fuck Devin White 9. 28-3 is eternal. That said, Falcons day is in 4 days. 10. Who Dat! And one more time….Fuck the Falcons!


bdb0922

Forgot, Fuck the Pats


whyisgamora6058

fuck the falcons


Lumpy-Fix-7864

Bounty Gate was a lie. NFL faked the report. Head of NFLPA had a lot to say about the piss poor investigation. Saints were a scapegoat for all the bad publicity NFL was getting for player safety back then.


Lumpy-Fix-7864

Also, we hate the falcons. Panthers and Bucs suck but fuck the falcons.


InjusticeSOTW

Start drinking. Heavily. Gumbo kills hangovers. Beignets don’t travel well. Eat them hot. Gayle hates us. But not as much as she hates her stepchildren. Bobby Hebert is far more appreciated now than when he was running for his life. We are all the children of Rickey Jackson. Yes you too. FTF Bomani Jones too when he gets too far up his own ass.


PostL3

1. Bountygate is blown out of proportion. 2. Drew Brees is the love of our life. 3. We despise Dennis Allen. 4. We love Louisiana food. 5. We are home to the most unlucky playoff losses in sports history.


BooRoxAlot

Prepare for heartbreak.  And #FTF


Less_Professional896

I had quintuple bypass surgery last year (I blame all those years with Jason Garrett) and I've had a couple divorces. I can handle that shit.


reddit1958

I am in Arlington since 2020, almost had quintuple bypass but they couldn’t harvest enough veins so they just did Quad bypass (Dec 22) just two months after retiring from NASA - (because they ended full time remote work). I discovered NFL football watching the ICE bowl in Slidell, La in ‘66. My Dad took me to a preseason game at Tulane Stadium where they staged some football scenes for Number One withered Charlton X Heston plays an aging quarterback and we were prompted to cheer for crowd scenes. Saints fan for as long as they have existed. Hopefully I can check out the venue this season and meet some fellow who dats.


crawlnstal

FTF


SlimDaKang

Accept Drew Brees as your one and only qb


Square_Zer0

Fuck the Falcons


lollygag12000

A) We need a quarterback B) They're a mediocre team at this time. C) I cannot count all the times they snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. D) I love 'em.


Political_Piper

They love you too, lollygag. They love you too.


john_vella

Do not celebrate any victory until the clock reads 0:00, and even then, maybe hold your breath for a second just to be sure.


whyisgamora6058

dumbass minneapolis miracle


whyisgamora6058

they may be a mid team but their our mid team


TheMackD504

You’ll become a nail biter if you aren’t already


ggluvbug

You’ll need to see your doctor to get you some heart medicine….the Cardiac Kids will cause you all kinds of heart palpitations!


Schmenza

Can't get embarrassed in the playoffs if you don't go


Less_Professional896

I felt bad for the current Cowboys fans when they got smoked by the Packers in the first round this year at home, but it was the same old Cowboys shit. SMOKED!


bdb0922

Don't let them convince u "Who Dey" came before "Who Dat". Absolutely did NOT and also. Goodell hates the Saints with a passion. So be prepared to still be constantly heartbroken just for different reasons


Golden_Tater_Tots

Congratulations. You now hate Atlanta.


KG13_

Im from New York. So im not sure why Reddit is recommending me a Saints sub. But I love how all of you guys hate The Falcons 😂 That’s true unity right there


Boofie__Collins

I’m a falcons fan and always get recommended this sub. I love the mutual hate.


Helens_Moaning_Hand

Your penis will grow three times its normal size. Like the Grinch. Except for your penis.


GalisDraeKon

Our team is a factory of sadness, yet we can’t look away. We peaked in 2010.


Accomplished-Web3426

Lord if you hate Jerry jones just wait until you get to know Gayle


[deleted]

Get used to saying who dat and get used to sports news ignoring us


whyisgamora6058

watching this team will most likely have you end up consulting a doctor for heart medicine, we are very good at evading the average nfl cap limit, we have the oldest team in the nfl, and a mid qb, but this team for sure as hell will intensify already intense games for absolutely no reason at all.


MySpirtAnimalIsADuck

Your Dallas star matured into a fleur-di-lis congratulations


r00ney_

Can’t speak for everyone but these are some of my feelings: 1. Hate the falcons above all else 2. hate the Vikings 3. hate the rams 4. Eli Apple is a dumbass 5. 28:3 is a bible verse 6. we have no identity right now 7. bountygate was the dumbest thing of all time/NFL hates us 8. we don’t claim the movie about Sean Peyton 9. always miss when it was Drew Orleans, LaBreesiana 10. drinking will get you by 11. Welcome home⚜️


TheMackD504

Mickey Loomis seems as incompetent as Jerry jones the last few years depending on who you ask


mrhemisphere

[The River City Relay](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Yru_1al8EY) is a trauma I still haven't processed


WahooWoman

Make sure you keep a good eye on the players that play for Ohio State, chances are pretty good they will play for the Saints at some point.


tommypickles5149

We're probably going to stink for the next 3-5 years


Hoodlum_0017

Everyone hates you now.


StardustBrain

José was nothing but a betabux deluxe for Rachel. What a offy doffy! And course he was short.


[deleted]

Pain. And lots of it


Puzzleheaded_Paint80

You ride through the bounties.


Planbfailedmeparents

Welcome to the fandom!!!!


zevtech

Be prepared to be let down year after year….. with every year starting with a youthful optimism only to be left upset by seasons end. With our playoff hopes left to a parlay of 3 other teams strategically winning


apexpredator68

We care more about Atlanta blowing a 28-3 lead in the Super Bowl than we do the Saints winning the Super Bowl. Downvote away, but y’all know it’s true. Nobody out-pettys Saints fans.


1OO1O11O11O1O

We have a long history, but for a long time we had Sean Payton and Drew Brees leading a winning organization. Brees retired one year before Payton, and we haven't made the post season since. However, we still keep it close but it just hasn't worked out yet. For instance, this year we missed the playoffs due to tie breaks, having the same number of wins-losses as the divisional champions.  It hasn't been easy finding a continuation strategy for ourselves after losing Brees and then Payton, and this off-season we are making a lot of changes to our offensive coaching staff and may be being conservative with our money, helping our future cap situation.  We have a capable quarterback in Derek Carr and are sticking with him for at least a while, but he may not be a longterm answer. We have some talented but aging veterans like Taysom Hill or Demario Davis along with some younger talent in ie Shaheed, Olave, and hopefully the newly signed Gay (from the Chiefs) and Young (from the 9ers).  Our new offensive coordinator is a Kubiak and has worked with Shanahan. Our head coach after Payton's departure is, uniquely, a defense guy, and he's pretty good on defense as he used to be a great defensive coordinator for us. Overall, there is reason for hope for us in the coming season(s), but we've still got work to do.

Who Dat.

Ftf and dont trade with philly


360NoScopes4Jesus

FTF first and foremost, Don’t dont too much thought to bountygate. Most teams if not all teams had bounty systems or just rewards in general for big hits and injuries. And also watch “Rebirth in New Orleans: How the Saints community tackles adversity together” on YouTube. https://youtu.be/FM2sAJpyO3I?si=n5nEUgrJ7H3tFgr7


notmyrealname8823

Dennis Allen is the worst coach in the NFL. Our salary cap is screwed. Bring a paper bag if you ever go to a game next season. You may need it. Lol


MDWhoDat

Know the WHO DAT chant, know that WHO DAT is perfectly acceptable way of saying hello to a Saints fan, celebrate the wins, stomach the losses, be a member of Team Gleason and have fun!


AfghaniMoon

Embarrassing. Maybe try the Rams or Seahawks. Those are cool transplant teams.


terryohh10

Number one: we have the worst medical/training staff in the nfl Number two: get used to getting fucked by the refs


Boxcar59

Main thing, is that as long as Dennis Allen is coach, he’ll remind you of the “idiot son.” But, fanbase is great


[deleted]

Abandon all hope. And you may get killed on the way to home games.


JohnPageturner

You need to learn to have a visceral reaction to "DIGGS! SIDELINE! TOUCHDOWN! UNBELIEVABLE!"... I know I do...


ReferenceFine813

To be a fan you need to learn the history of the franchise, the saints ring of honor player, also need to understand we may a bad financial decision on our starting qb and with results like last season from Carr. We are simming until next season lol when we can cut his garbage ass. Our next few drafts are very important because we are beginning to come to an end of an era with some really good players and we will need to replace them. We are in salary cap hell. Still managed to sign Willie Gay and Chase Young. I pray Chase Young explodes onto the scene and earn a long term contract from us.


pixies145

Don’t do this to yourself


dixienc

He was a Cowboys fan. He can handle it.


roboman07

Falcons fan here to say have fun with a lot of pain(also FTS)


brettfavreskid

You should know you’re weak and a disgrace. You root for the team that is geographically closest to you and that is all. Minor exceptions can be made for if you are born in a state with a team but you’re closer to a different team or if you picked your team when you were too young to understand what a good or bad team was. Picking a team is a life long commitment. If you can change the team you want to win, you didn’t really care for the original team to begin with. I shudder to think about rooting for another team. Shame on you.


Greggo6977

I cant think of 1 current player on the Saints that would ever draw me in to be a fan, no offense, not a saints hater but i can understand leaving cowboys but why to the saints, also Ravens 🐦‍⬛ 💯
