Saints were smashed in the playoffs by the bears after Katrina.....they didn't win sb until 2009...smh
how Do you alter a blowout without the world noticing?
you see how they played that tight minnesota game in the saints favor.
hence, the stage was set.
obviously, the year didn't make a difference, given the superbowl year was the year they were back in the superdome, and the nfl let you know they put up $30 MILLION of their money to get the superdome game ready.
oh, ricky jackson becomes the FIRST saint in the hall of fame.
oh, Drew wins every humanitian award on the face of this earth.
oh, that superbowl was the most WATCHED sporting event EVER, the nfl had a record year in merchandise and advertising sales, and you think the National Felon League was going to let the saints finish the year without a ring.
i grew up in the city and am calling it BULLSHIT!
