Is anyone else feeling a dual sense of satisfaction and disgust over tonight's Saints' win?

I'm not saying that this was a franchise defining moment, beating a team that is 4 quarters short of a dollar, but the play was solid. Not great, but solid.

Then again, struggling to beat this Jets' team, even on the road (like every other game), is not a great accomplishment. And the Saints' tried to give it away. But the consumate professionals that the Jets are, they wouldn't hear of letting the Saints get a higher draft pick on their watch. It makes more sense to resurrect the Jets in the nation's #1 market with Reggie Bush or Matt Leinart than it would be to let the nomadic Benson Saints have a shot.

And damn Aaron Brooks for playing like he had a clue. I guess that given the dearth of posting so soon after the win, AB, I mean BonB, was too tired to hit a few keys to let us know how great he was.
