What other NFL franchise do you have the most "RESPECT" for? Which one do you have the least respect for?

SapperSaint · 09-18-2012, 04:13 PM

Like the most: Patriots

Don't respect: Falcons, Eagles or Dallas

I was always fond of the Edmonton Eskimos.

Not saying he's a bad guy...I like him....just saying he can be subtly douchey sometimes but not enough to make him say.......a Roddy White, or a Steve Smith...its just the riiiiiiight amount so that no one can definativly say "Yeah...that guy is a complete douche bag".

He's got it down to a science......much like Brees does (Don't front! He's the MASTER at it!). But thats why I respect him cuz he's savy enough to know when to release his douche qualities and when to stay humble. Not a lot of athletes can straddle the fence of Douchebaggery so easily. LOL

I'm slightly confused as to how Brees is like that. Brees seems more "aw shucks". Except he actually means it.

I think what you mean is Brees isn't naive. If he was naive, then he'd be Tebow.

I dunno, Goofy... I see it a bit in Brees... I wouldn't call it outright douchery, but Brees definitely messes with people sometimes, when he's talking. I've seen him go over people's heads in interviews, with a sense of humor they can't even detect. And I've seen him say really bad corny football cliche answers to questions, while looking right in the camera with a face that says, "Yes, I am saying a ridiculous stock football cliche to you right now, and I know it."

Most respect-Buffalo Bills Went to 4 straight Super Bowls

Least respect-Chicago Bears-Because of classless fans @ '06 NFCC Game

Least respect: Ravens, Colts, Browns.
Pulling up stakes in the middle of the night leaving fans high and dry. Ravens - stealing a formerly storied franchise - and feeling they had the right because theirs was stolen from them.

Most respect: Saints, Falcons - brought pro football into the deep south before their colleges had even desegregated their football teams.

Saints sold out games while being (arguably) the worst team in all of pro sports - (greatest fans of all time!)

Packers - only publicly owned team in all of sports (I could be wrong about "only") and have the rings to back it up.

Oh, was this about the current season and athletics?

That's more like having the media kiss his ass.
