As a sign of their displeasure? I think it would be a largely symbolic gesture that would definitely get the attention of the league and media without jeopardizing any meaningful games. Do the Saints get a lot of revenue from that game that would make it cutting off their nose to spite their face?

Nah, they should just show up and then drop their pants right before kick off.


This isn't pop warner league football. You don't pull stupid shite to piss the NFL off as a team.

I do look forward to seeing the great signs from our fans during the first few home games.

This one reminds me of when LSU fans say we should tell the TV networks we aren't going to play a night game.

I agree.

We should just pull out of the NFL all together and start our own league.

I hope not. I understand it would be a powerful gesture, but that weekend is for the new inductees. If they pull out, it shines another unflattering light on the organization and it would only tempt Goodell to further punishments.

Plus I plan on going to the game.

How about the starters go in for a single series (or play)?
