good question, good thread, interesting topic. Post on and dont worry.

Again, an Exhibition Opinion, being born in Houston, but I didnt want Archie's kids playing in New Orleans, because the expectation would have been so high, the
first time Peyton threw an interception / lost a game, and the crowd turns on
him--- that would have been heartbreaking. I remember Bobby Hebert, a Bayou kid himself, having a tough day, getting heckled by people who should have been his biggest fans. I would have gone to the Falcons and then did "airplane arms" too, after what he must have heard from the stands.

It sounded like a dream deal, Peyton to the Saints, but I just think the expectation would have led to needless stress.
