People need to slow the f*ck down, take a breath, read, question, review sources and facts, re-read then present an informed opinion...
And even worse, after the truth and facts come out that contradict the story, people still believe the original fake story. And thats not just political news, its everywhere.

It makes me want to scream!!!

Exactly!!! Far worse. It speaks further to the laziness of society and its willingness to believe the worst (which is usually what is being portrayed initially).

Yet, these same people were too lazy to keep following the story out to its end to find out it was Joe Vitt and how he went through the legal system because of the episodes.
I blame all this on you anyway for being so cock sure about us going all the way. I knew from the get go the NFL wouldn’t let the Saints get into the SB. I said in preseason it would be the Rams and it was going to be scripted. I knew the NFL was going to put them in the best possible position to get there.

And I blame on you for going all negative when we needed to keep our positivity intact.
