With all due respect, I think you're missing the point a little.

He's saying that the attitude of the town is too closely tied to the fortunes of a football team. Having a winning team is great, but it doesn't solve the rampant socioeconomic problems that have never been addressed, even before Katrina brought those problems to light.

I am not "hating" on New Orleans. I am a frequent visitor and I love the town. Many landmark moments in my life have happened in New Orleans.

But let's not pretend it's perfect.

noone said it was a perfect city. but its ours (even tho im not from there). and its our football team. we want them to do good. and when they're down, we fans shouldnt totally give up and say "oh well its the same old saints", as many may of you like to say. its not even remotely close to the same team as u old timers are use to seeing. i cannot stand when i hear ppl say those kinds of idiotic remarks. and for u to agree with this guys sarcasm is jus ridiculous and it everyone what kind of person and "so called saints fan" u are.

The time has come! Who Dat
