Obviously, I am excited about the Saints' 4-0 start. Living where I do, the victories over Philadelphia and the NY Jets were especially sweet. The former earned me a free lunch from a rabid Eagles fan at work, and the latter gives me bragging rights with numerous fans of that local team.
But . . . and there always is a "but" with the Saints . . . I am tempering my enthusiasm in light of a lifetime of disappointments. David does not undertstand this yet, but I am trying to teach him. Here is a nice article about the mood in N.O. and on the team -- the key quote is this:
It’s all added up to one of the most dominant starts in franchise history, begging the question: Could this finally be the year New Orleans plays in its first Super Bowl?
“The funny thing is, we’re talking about it, but we’re also taking it one game at a time,” Randazza said of her discussions with fans. “We don’t want to overdo it because we’ve always got that voodoo hex here where we might have something go wrong if we get ahead of ourselves.”
