Awesome. Hopefully, with your help, that area can turn Black and Gold! That is the main reason I don't go to Shreveport/Bossier, because I don't have to deal with the Cowboys fans that live there....and that I always lose my arse at the casinos over there. I saw we pack all their butts up and ship them to Dallas!

Re: STILL DISRESPECTED
 

I am sure a lot of it has to do with our success this year, but on any given Sunday during the season I would make a run to Walmart to stock up on game day supplies and the Saints paraphernalia on shoppers outnumbered Cowgirl garb ten to one! It is beautiful!

The thing about the NFL is that all the talk all the BS, all the gay power rankings don't mean a hill of beans. The NFL winning the one game is all that matters. To win it you have to be in it, an unless I was dreaming again for the billionth time we won the second most important game of the year. We are the best team in the NFC and that is undisputed.

Re: STILL DISRESPECTED
 

To them, every Saints win is a "Lucky" win.

I wonder if they called the Steelers win in Indy during the '05 Playoffs LUCKY after the doors on 'The Bus' (Jerome Bettis' goalline fumble) blew open? Or the Giants SB XLII win against previously unbeaten New England Patriots, with David Tyree catching the ball with his helmet, LUCKY? Does anyone remember the 'Big Ben' Game (Saints vs Falcons)? Did they call that "Dirty Bird" win against us LUCKY? (I wonder if the Lions were to go to the Super Bowl, what would these clowns say then?)

Here's something that I don't understand (or 'Overstand'): Many Cow fan want the Saints to lose to the very team that slaughtered them in the playoffs, and the Cows stopped our 13-game win streak!! Isn't that supposed to be the other way around?? You hope for the team, that you beat in the regular season, or any team for that matter, beat the team that you lost to.

All I can say is that their 'donkeys' have been exposed, AND IT FEELS SO GOOD!!!

Re: STILL DISRESPECTED
 

I dont know why everyone is upset because they feel like the Saints are disrespected. In order to earn respect you have to have consistency for an extended period of time. This team has not shown consistency to be good year over year since its inception. Respect is earned. This has been and continues to be a magical season. 2006 was an amazing season. Then two mediocre seasons in between. I was born at Lakeside hospital in Metarie in July of 1977. My family have been season ticket holders since 1975. We have seen many horrible seasons, and a couple of magical ones. Once the Saints can show they are contenders year after year they will earn the respect. Until then who cares what the national feeling is about us. We know what this team is about.

Re: STILL DISRESPECTED
 

Donuts32 has it spot on. Screw everyone else. No matter what we do or how we win it will be because of other factors and not us. Don't care; we are Superbowl bound for the first time in our history and no one else outside the WhoDat Nation matters.

Re: STILL DISRESPECTED
 

I think it is more giving credit where it is due is what people are peeved about. And I think respect should come when you've made it to the big dance because you've earned it. You've played a hard season and have beaten some of the best to ge there. In my book, that deserves respect.

Re: STILL DISRESPECTED
 

I agree, but the national media doesnt care about one season. Look at the colts they were laughed at before Manning got there. He has made them consitent contenders and now they are the model of a team to the media. It takes more than one good season here and there to earn respect.

Re: STILL DISRESPECTED
 

I don't care at all if the media wants to diminish our win. No matter what they say it isn't going to change the result. When I woke up today, I went to work rocking out a Saints shirt and was smiling all day. We've waited a long time for this and no one is going to put a damper on my mood.

Re: STILL DISRESPECTED
 

I just heard another talking head on the NFL Network tell everybody that the Saints didn't win that game, the vikes lost it. He also said that the vikes d shut down our offense and we couldn't stop the vikes offense. How does a team score 31 points and get considered shutdown?
