I have heard so much vitriol thrown Payton's way it disgusts me. 'Yeah, I'm gonna burn his book. He's betrayed us!' What a bunch of sad, petty morons. I thought the Black and Gold were stronger than that and that we would wait until things developed before any public burnings. If the man wants to get a place in Dallas for his family, let him. It has disappointed me and I am not even from America let alone New Orleans, but let's wait until facts come out before pouring all of this hate on the guy. I love New Orleans and miss it when I can't get to it but have no idea what it would be like to live there or raise a family but I do know this; if it was a choice of family and Dallas home or New Orleans but you're on your own?! No contest. The man can still be a great coach and still lead this team to another Superbowl but it would be good for him to know that as long as he is a coach for the New Orleans Saints, the best fans in the world will be behind him 100%. Here endeth the lesson.

How do Rumors get started...
They're started by the jealous people...
And they get mad about somethin they had...
and somebody else is holdin...

I certainly hope all is well in the Payton home.
Moving to Dallas wouldnt make sense to me, if this is the case.
This would only have them separated more.

I wouldnt live in any city, if I had a choice. I'd be in a swamp somewhere.
But I cant imagine not being able to find a nice place on the Northshore, or somewhere in the country.

I need more info, before I know what to think here.

He can live where he wants. The Saints organization did the right thing by saying that they were fine with his change of location.

what else would they do?

Keep winning.

According to his book, he was living on the north shore, in Mandeville.
I used to work in Mandeville, and had to travel around town a LOT. It's a very nice town. In a lot of ways, it's the mirror image of New Orleans, in that everything is the opposite. I love New Orleans, but I could see why someone wouldn't want to live there. However, Mandeville is very "sterile" in comparison. Maybe it was just too quiet for the Payton's...

Wasn't the entire "cheating" story started by one person - at Terezowens.com? Then, it seems this story reverberated throughout the echo chamber that is the internet. Soon, people were saying "I saw it on a number of blogs," when really it was just one person making totally unsubstantiated remarks on one gossip site. Maybe Terez Owens just really hates the New Orleans Saints.

Where there's smoke...

Somebody farted? :mrgreen:

I think this is just stupid. Who cares where he lives.
I really hope none of ya really are bothered with this. Just passing time till the season starts i hope.
