Hypocrits Amaze me. Minnesota got beat straight-up in the NFC Game (AP fumbled (3Xs) their chances away), but it wasn't fair they didn't get the ball in overtime - so OT rules were changed...

Jim Irsay, frustrated his Colts couldn't get past the Patriots, lobbied rules changes so any contact after five, uh one yard, almost always favors receivers; Patriots, Belichick adapted and still win...

Just last year Packers fans, their front office lobbied heavily after two late losses, both involving costly Clay Matthews unnecessary roughness flags, saw the league adjust those calls late last season...

As a young man, schools, media indoctrination would teach that I was flawed as an American as I was from the South...

When I traveled the country as a leader in my fraternity, my objective experience revealed that some of the most intolerant bigots and hypocrites were in the MidWest, MidAtlantic and PacWest states...

While I made great friendships there, there were just as many jerks like you described with that "You guys down there need to just take it and like it" attitude, but when it's them - knock over the gameboard...

Traditionally, we've always mocked, even self-deprecated (not defecate) ourselves with our Mardi Gras themes on politics, sports, religion, race (even Zulu mocks the world in black-face)...

Only in the past few years have we let some political correctness movement creep into New Orleans to ruin what once was the healthiest, most honest attitude with that approach on sensitive topics...
