How to become a Saints fan

Hello Saints Nation.

As an Alabamian, and graduate of U of A, I've never had a professional football team affiliation thanks to college football's domination in my state. I get regular doses of Titans and Falcons thanks to the media market I live in, but those teams mean nothing to me. If anything, this forced exposure has proven to be something of a turn-off.

Point is, I will likely be relocating from my home in Alabama to Dallas within the next calendar year. I've visited Dallas numerous times, and at each visit I've really enjoyed hanging out on Sunday afternoons in local bars watching NFL games. However, I don't have a NFL team, and I'd rather saw off a foot than become a Cowboys fan.

Therefore, I'd like to submit my application to become a Saints fan. It seems like a good time to make the move. Here are my qualifications:

I love New Orleans. At one time in my life, I visited annually on my birthday as a present for myself. No, not just The Quarter, but Magazine, Uptown, The Bywater. The Saints have employed some of my favorite former Bama players. I have my own gumbo recipe (I used to make my own roux). Finally, I have only been to one NFL game in-person and it was at The Superdome.

I hope you will find my application acceptable.

Please suggest an additional qualifications necessary. Stats, player names, any obscure references, etc I should be able to cite upon request.
