Players rank Saints fans 5th hardest to play in front of
 

Who cares... Visiting fans are treated with respect in the Crecent City.
Nobody supports their team better. Maybe just as good but not better.

Didn't we ban welfare gutter punk babies from the Superdome?

I believe they meant toughest in terms of loudness, etc...

5th? Really? I'm dissapointed. I would have thought 2nd or third.
Our fans come in first in loyalty though. Our fans are there till the end of the game, win or lose.

this article went along with a story about Philly fans booing some rookie's fiance'
it is really talking about fan/player harassment, not crowd noise

I can attest to the Seattle ranking being above New Orleans. It was nowhere near as loud last Sunday as our season-ender last year.

Not even close. Maybe because our fans are accustomed to winning! LOL

"Maybe because our fans are accustomed to winning! LOL"

Some of us old folks aren't accustomed...back in the day, by were the Aints with the grocery bags on our heads. I still have a hard processing a Super Bowl win. I keep waiting for some rule to come down saying that we didn't actually win it.

But in accordance with the article, WE are the loudest in the Superdome. Every dude from another team that has ever played there says the same thing. We are the greatest fans in the world. We're spoiled with Drew and Sean, though...and I'm loving it, and IMHO Nawlins is the hardest place to play because of US. Bring it, baby! The ultimate dream...beating those S--tbirds from ATL 3 times in one year. Actually, I hope those same S--tbirds lose out the rest of the year and then they get to think about the 2 times we beat them this year. Ahhhh...happy feelings if and when that happens...
