Give 'em hell in Cali

I have been a Saints fan since 1976. I can remember when Morten Andersen was a rookie. I live in Central Cal. Niner and Raider fans are all nuts. We have never looked better.

P.S. i also live in the SF bay area and not afraid to sport my black and gold colours!

The 9ers are the team of the 80's, the thing is though that was so ,so,so long ago. Ive been a Saints loyal since as far as i can remember.I got my Saints tat when the bags were being sported. One of my favorite things in the whole world is watching the Saints tar and feather the niners!!!WhoDat!

ahh. I can't believe they have to do that again!!!!!! But i voted.

I deleted the thread but come on over anyway..

Geez I live In Cali and the Raiders get talked about more than the Forty-Whiners... Geaux Saints. Got Tickets in the Nose Bleed Section. I'll Be Sporting Black and Gold Colors

Oh BOY - I bet he has changed his toon now!!

HOU DAT!

Both ... lol

I don't like him and never did.

Nice one brother. Hope I get to watch this sometime. Having gone through Katrina and all the days following in Pass Christian (one of many cities on the MS Gulf Coast, not damaged but completely leveled by the storm as you well know) I have some strong opinions about the whole ordeal. No city in the world is closer to my heart than NOLA. New Orleans deserves all the help and attention it can get, both from those elsewhere and especially within. A Superbowl victory was a damn fine start!!

List updated to add more players

Thanks for reading and for the positive feedback. I'm looking forward to seeing part II soon.

I had tears also.

Part 2 airs tonight.

I watched the re-airing of this last night, and I was in tears the whole time. Although I wasn't living in New Orleans at the time of Katrina, a few of my family members and close friends were. It was so hard seeing the horrific images of what New Orleans residents went through.

Although I despise Spike Lee, I though he did very well on this piece.

Although I haven't seen the HBO special as of yet, I must say I feel touched by your writing.

I couldn't agree more! In these insane, weird and ever changing times, I'm glad people are realizing the meaning of this.

After Katrina, I heard echo's of "should we rebuild New Orleans" and "we shouldn't rebuild it" and I felt betrayed by some. It's easy to have rash opinions when it doesn't affect you personally.

If and when tragedy happens elsewhere, the thought of whether to fix or rebuild it doesn't cross my mind. We have an obligation as a society and a republic to lift one another up in the face of disaster.

It's funny how partisan politics is seeping into our community governments. I fear politics in New Orleans will destroy her before another levee breaks. Regardless, I still love OUR city.

Again, another great blog from saintfan1976. You got my vote on the rating.

Another really great documentary running this week is called "Witness: Katrina", its on National Geographic Channel and is made up of survivors video taken before, during and after the storm.

Its an incredibly gripping show, if these sort of things interest you, I highly recommend seeing this one.

List updated to add Thomas Morstead!

Don't we all.
