I watched the game as well and listened to some of the commentary. My feeling was that they are taking a play out of the democratic play book and trying to reinvent history. Last year they were 3-13 and the two previous years they were 8-8. The media hype is acting like the Saints fans are as loyal as the Cheeseheads or Raider-maniacs. They lost their basketball team, wont have a hockey team or a baseball team and all they have left is football and are acting like Charlie finding the last golden ticket to the chocolate factory.
Just my observation and opinion.

Actually New Orleans ranks #2 all time behind only Cleveland in attendance per victory. We are far more loyal than fans of the Cowboys, Falcons, Bengals, etc. I suppose I'd give you the Packers but other areas have their tickets scooped up by corporations. New Orleans has far too little corporate involvement and therefore it's the people who support the team.

I don't know about the Cheeseheads or the Raider-maniacs, but through thick and thin (lots of thin), the Saints fans have been amazingly loyal and steadfast.
