re: Has Payton earned himself some boos when he returns to the dome?

I don't think so. I mean, this guy came here in 2006 and brought Brees in, BUT had little else to work with.
He turned this franchise around after years and years of despair. He stayed after 3 7-9 seasons WITH Brees.
I mean we had 37 wins from 2009 to 2011 under him. Prior to his arrival, it took almost 5 seasons to reach that may wins. (2001-2005). Hell, it took 10 seasons from the start of the Saints' franchise to get 36 wins.
He was probably burnt out as well. Imagine feeling the way fans did (but as a coach x1000) after the Minn. miracle, the loss to SF, the loss to Minn @ home, the no-call Rams game, the Beast-quake Seattle loss, and losing to Tampa after beating them easily in the reg. season.
16 years as a head coach, and as much success as we had under him, I wouldn't boo him.

That's why I pose the question. He's obviously earned king of the city status but it feels like he's thrown it away at this point

Damn your logical argument getting in the way of my feelings!
