Nice article, but what does an article about the city of New Orleans have to do with them being America's team? It's not like people in other cities such as Atlanta or Denver are out buying Saints gear.

what a great article. i didn't know that rita leblanc was quite so involved in the new orleans social scene - with carville, besh, etc.

that's great news for the future of the saints here. not that we were worried, we weren't. but rita "gets it" as much as you could hope for.

Maybe you use bizarre trends, such as an NOPD cop telling me the 911 calls almost stop when the Saints play and there's been only one murder during a game this year.



So how many murders do they normally have during games?

There are no truer statements than these. It funny how NOLA is the only place claiming this title.
