re: Can someone explain to me why so many LSU fans hate the Saints

Grew up in Dallas. HS and LSU in the 90s when the Cowboys were winning SBs.

I’ve grown to dislike the Saints for three reasons:

1: The incessant obsessive sniping about the Falcons and making fun of their SB collapse. Not classy. I wouldn’t wish that on any fan base.

2: The obsession with hating the Cowboys out of nothing more than sheer unadulterated jealousy. Even my college buds were nasty to me about being a Cowboys fan. News flash: we never think of you. At all.

3: Sean Payton should be banned from the league for the bounties he allowed to happen on his watch. Watching Fox show clips of the Saints’ last NFC Champ against the Vikings made it absolutely apparent the defense was targeting Favre and trying to take him out. I have no respect for the man. A NO/NE SB would have pitted the two dirtiest coaches in league against each other.

Despite all of that, I’ll cheer for the Saints when Payton is gone.
