I think the coaches will call it as usual for preseason, especially Vitt. But for the individual players, it seems to me like few people out there have really considered the psychological impact of all this offseason misinformation and garbage out there about the Saints, with the media and Goodell wildly branding the team as a bunch of hooligans, cheaters, evil wiretappers, leg-breaking headhunters and so forth. No one knows what the smack talk is going to be like. You know some of the Cardinals will be mouthing off, trying to draw the Saints into penalties. I would not be at all surprised if it was a little more "chippy" out there than usual for a preseason game.

Maybe, but there'll be a whole bunch of players out there trying to prove they should be kept around for at least another week. Trying to get another player to fight with you and make a mistake isn't nearly as important as not making a mistake yourself in these games. I'm sure we'll see a bunch of this come regular season though. And since there'll be a bunch of fake refs out there trying to prove they should be kept on, I'm concerned the gold part of our Black and Gold's gonna be made up from their hankies.
