re: Most memorable/favorite Saints moments (excluding playoffs)

1. John Gilliam's 94-yard kickoff return for a TD against the Rams on the very FIRST play for the Saints....surely an event which will never be duplicated by another team.
2. Tom Dempsey's 63-yard NFL-record-breaking field goal to beat the Lions.

I cannot "prove" it to you. I sincerely doubt that your prejudice will allow you to accept that "most americans" preferred Obama to Romney even though we actually had an election to decide that very issue.

Also, I'm being attacked as if I'm some far-out weirdo because I support gay marriage. I've got news for you...MOST Americans support gay marriage:
"Some 58 percent of Americans now say gay and lesbian couples should be allowed to get married, up from a low of 32 percent of registered voters just nine years ago in the Post/ABC poll."

I really don't understand all the personal vitriol directed at me. I agree with two all-time great Saints, Scott Fujita and Steve Gleason (and with a lesser Saint, Scott Shanle). By your logic, are Fujita and Gleason "lovers of the male starfish"?

Completely agree. Why are straight men interested in another man's sexuality?
Why does Fujita have to get something out of it? Can't someone just support something because they think that is right?

Posted by UVa JD 1987 on 2/4/13 at 12:26 pm to FamousAmos
Thanks for posting this Famous.
I agree with you. No one is saying that the holding on the punt changed the outcome of the game. Given the rules, it WAS a smart play by the Ravens to hold.
I just do not understand how one can believe in the "integrity of the game," when officials ignore obvious penalties.
As for Phil Simms' idiotic comment about the fourth down play being a "good no call," if Crabtree were pushing off (in addition to the obvious defensive holding), then there should have been off-setting penalties.

How do we know that those were recordings from Te'o's phone? How do we know that those recordings weren't made after Deadspin broke the story? Why would the Post rely on the word of unnamed sources?
Sick that this whole fiasco started because "journalists" failed to do basic fact-checking...and STILL new versions come out without basic fact-checking.

Agree.
For instance, b/c ESPN had decided that Craig James (despite the 5 dead hookers...) was a good guy, that Mike Leach must have been a bad guy. It wasn't until last week that I found out that none of James' allegations about Leach were true. Of course, I learned that from a source other than ESPN.
I resent being told how to "feel" about somebody or something. Please just give me the facts.

My only interest in this story is as an illustration of how manipulative the media is. I just watched the Couric interview. I am convinced that it was a pre-arranged whitewash (of course...why else would Te'O have agreed to it?).
While it might have sounded as if Couric were being tough on him, she missed some obvious opportunities to verify---or to demolish---the assertion that Te'O was the "victim." For instance, Te'O said that he had let the mother of one of his friends talk to "Lennay." An even mildy-skilled interviewer would have asked: "What is your friend's name, and may we call his/her mother right now to verify that discussion."
Also, Couric implicitly supported Te'O-as-victim by playing recordings that were "of Lennay." Did Couric do anything to determine how old the recordings were...how do we know that the recordings weren't made after Deadspin broke the story? Why would Te'O have saved messages on his phone from his girlfriend with whom he (allegedly) spoke every day?
As with Bountygategate, some actual journalism could have divulged the truth about this story long ago. Of course, "actual journalism" is not committed very often by corporate media.

10.5 wins per year over the last five (including the ONLY NFL season without a head coach) is NOT the product of a mediocre franchise.

Thanks for posting this Blues. Sad to see this only briefly mentioned in the media...and that that mention come from a Washington newspaper. Where is the New Orleans media on this? Why did it take the Los Angeles Times to do the research to show that the rate of injuries caused by the Saints during the alleged existence of "Bountygate" did not support any allegations that the Saints were, in fact, seeking to injure other players???
