    of returning the Saints to irrelevance. Having permanently tainted our only Super Bowl championship with a fabricated bounty scandal, the league is now after our fan base and reputation as a team with a decided home field advantage. They have flexed our Christmas Eve home game against Tampa to 3:25, making it FOX's national game. This will likely be a huge game for the Bucs but a nothing game for us. And with a late afternoon Christmas Eve kickoff, the nation will be looking at a Superdome that will have about the same crowd size and passion as a Tulane/Southern Miss game.

    The league and Goodell detest the Saints, that's obvious.

    I couldn't agree more, which makes you wonder why we got a questionable 'Roughing QB' call today that basically iced the game. I guess we got 1 for every 20 or so calls that go against us and we were due.

    That was a game-changing and highly questionable call.

    I agree, but I don't feel bad about it one bit. We're usually on the receiving end of bad calls that cost us the game, so the one time in a blue moon that a bad call helps us win, then I'm ok with that. We were over due.
