re: Falcons/Saints Rivalry

I pulled for Atlanta in SB and in playoffs when saints aren't there (i.e., usually). Definitely a Southern/Divisional/NFC thing. Plus, there is more of a connection between Atlanta and New Orleans now that pre-Katrina, due to all the refugees here.

I go to the game every year here in atl, and it's always a fun rivalry. That's the Southern way. We aren't Eagles, Patriots, Steelers, or Jets types. When we hate you, we invite you in for dinner and drink; shake your hand and smile and talk about our mommas and dem.
