My point still stands, named after a fan zone. (06-09-2018, 10:26 AM)Vicious Wrote:“Those who follow the band just to enjoy the music are called the "second line". ” IDK man. I lived in New Orleans for six years. I am huge Saints fan. I attended dozens of games. I had no idea their fan zone was named that. To me a second line is when you dance behind the brass band. And that's what it means to 99% of other people in the city as well. Don't get me wrong, I'm not wild about the name and the brand. But I do like that Bovo looked for something a bit more original than the stereotypical stuff. I personally would have gone with New Orleans Rougarou. But nobody likes my idea.

(Im kidding, I love a lot of guys on this site) I’m fucking tired of the shit we get from the rest of the league. I did not want to call out names in this post. I fact I probably wasn’t even going to make this post until today. @timeconsumer why do you always have to give us shit? It seems like you go out of your way to talk down on NOLA and our team name. It’s unprovoked. We are class acts in NOLA and we didn’t take shit to the Legion when they were worse than us and they mass retired. But I guess you can’t expect people to reciprocate, even in a league that’s meant to be fun and games. You tried talking keanex into demanding a trade? Mind your own shit. @Beaver wow. I am 99.9% sure you talked @Keyg_an into retirement singlehandedly. Or he’s your multi. Why else would he come out of four weeks of inactivity just to say he wanted to play for NOLA and then go IA again? How would you know that he was going to retire the very next day in your draft grades? As low down shit goes that’s pretty low. I’m just calling out a few specific people that have given us big time shit. I love this league and I love a lot of the users in it. That’s 100%. There are a lot of good guys on this site. I don’t want this league to go through another Archon again where he made people on the Hawks leave because of constant harassment. Be considerate. (06-09-2018, 02:37 PM)timeconsumer Wrote:IDK man.

No, it’s not an actual real fan zone, I was saying it’s the equivalent of a fan zone, it would make sense to name it the Second Line, like the 12th man, since they would be supporting the team on the field, much like the real second line supports the band. Naming a sports team after the people that dance and support the actual event just seems kinda off, but to each their own.
