After an ominous 5-5 start to the season thanks to a 79 point thumping of the up & coming Dees, the Saints we're looking a shoe-in for some action in late September (IMHO replace "late" with "last Saturday in").
Enter the Bulldogs. Often confused for little leaguers, the elves from out west proved to strong for the mighty Saints. Now we all know that 27 points flattered the Dogs (had they kicked straight early, the Saints shoulda won by 4-15 goals) but what's important is that Rossco can now use this shock loss as ammunition for one final tilt at that surprisingly elusive flag.
Can he use it to better his team? I think he can. When asked on MMM today before the game why the Saints arent in the top 4 or 6 as many people think they are capable of, Rossco responded its because they havent won enough games. I think he's splitting the atom next week.
