thats a great point. Baseball should learn from this. The Yankees have made baseball pointless.

We upset the natural order of things. Of course we're going to get our fair share of hatred. Those in power want to keep power, even if they have bad ideas or bad execution.

That's why you've got a media bias towards Brett Favre, he gives the media what they want - drama and conflict on an historically important team. That's why the Cowboys got so much love in round 1 even though they really weren't very good.

We're not all that interesting because most of the players on our team don't do stupid things that create drama. In reality, nobody likes the selfless act, and bad actors find ways to make those, for whom charity begins at home, into flawed and unsympathetic creatures.

We celebrate the Donald for his cunning in getting bailed out of bankruptcy because he was "too big to fail," but we punish the little guy whose original restaurant "Taj Mahal" must change his name because the Donald owns it for his new casino.

The only way to stop the disrespect is to squash them like a bug on the playing field, with dignity.

Who dat got their pants on the ground? Warner? Favre?

They didn't see the Saints coming and they had plenty of time for preperation. Shame on them.

Sharper is their reality. They ain't ready for this much meauxjeaux.
Just say neaux to dolts.

Well said.

Seriously, good points. We smashed the natural order of WHAT THEY EXPECTED IN THEIR MINDS but the actual natural order was the Saints were the #1 seed. Oops.

I've never seen the Nation get in a tissy over the decades of Pittsburghers dirty hits.

Not sure what to say. I agree to a degree with some disclaimers.

I'm with ya man, when i heard that jackass from Seattle. That crap infuriates me. I also say to hell with anybody who is not a Saints fan and says Sh*t like that. Would love from some A** to say those things to me in person.

All I've heard all season is a deafening silence regarding the Saints. Haven't yet encountered any real Saints Hatred, except from a few cryin' Vikes fans. It seems to me that the "silent majority" out there is cheering for the Saints, but the national media missed it's "Farve Drama Story" so it's pissed. F' em. We're in the SUPER BOWL.

Chalk it all up to ignorance, and keep on goin! People envy people who make it to the top, and then the hating starts. This is in all aspects of life. Very few people are gracious enough to be happy for someone, or "team", who has risen above mediocre. My husband and I were discussing this the other day. He has been very blessed in his profession and business, and his "friends" from back home with the exception of ONE refuse to come visit or even keep in touch. Yep, sure seems stupid, but human nature can be a "biatchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" sometimes, can't it?
