Small market or not New Orleans' fan base alone, I would venture to guess that less revenue will be generated from a Rams SB than a Saints SB.

It's amazing to me that "let them play" is a thing. All "let them play" means is, we (the refs) can't get the call right anyway so better a no call than a bad call.
