You guys have had a 500% increase in "fanship" since Brees arrived, and you're criticizing individuals on a message board for not going to a playoff game? Seriously?
the cheapest ticket for a playoff game in New Orleans since Brees arrived is about $150. most of the time more. Compare the 2 and get back to me

I won't deny that I'd appreciate the recent surge in Saints popularity here in Atlanta. Of course, there is a lot more going on here, but I don't really want to rely on the Miami excuses for fan behavior.
That said, pretending that NOLA is full of devout and unwavering sports fans is ridiculous. When I started school at an SEC school, I knew one serious Saints fan (2002). When I finished, half of my fraternity was clinging to the Saints. Anecdotal, obviously, but I imagine a lot of others experienced the same. Atlanta is likely to benefit from success in the same manner as you guys.

Yeah, I paid $300 for a playoff ticket in 2009, as a college student with no real income.
