		<description><![CDATA[Ok, first you all go after players and coaches for bountygate for intentionally injuring players despite the fact that is not the charge, nor has it ever been charged, with what the saints actually did. That&#039;s fine, most people judge with knowing facts. That is not unusual.
 Then you go after fans for sticking up for their team (like you wouldn&#039;t if roles were reversed) and have the nerve to bring in Katrina and hurricanes hitting the city. That is deplorable, a serious line has been crossed. 
Now, the inevitable theme has begun. &quot;we&#039;re glad the saints lost, they&#039;re a bunch of cheaters!&quot;
I could go on and on about what actually happened with &quot;bountygate&quot;, but I&#039;m sure that most of you have created the opinion that you are so right that I&#039;m just making things up and am a saints homer and the saints are still a bunch of cheaters so I will not even play along. 
I will say that it is such a classless direction you have taken that now you are kicking such a damaged team even after all that has happened. 
Honestly, I hope this happens to your favorite team so I can hear your cries of &quot;lack of evidence&quot; and &quot;you haters don&#039;t even know what you are charging them with&quot; of which my response will be silence. Because I won&#039;t lower myself to your level of vitriol that only serves to make you look more disrespectful and cheap than what you alleged the saints ever did. 
Get a new hobby and forget about the saints. You have no business talking about them anymore.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You happy Goodell?  You took a salary cap issue and decimated a team&#039;s ability to be competitive over it.  Any team that beats the Saints this year, sure not brag about the win, considering they are playing a team hampered by this horrible offseason.  Each of these players is getting paid.  So Goodell did not inflict much harm on them.  But the paying fans, we&#039;re the one stuck with the short end of the stick.  Now we get to wonder all season what it would be like if Goodell hadn&#039;t cleaned house on us for a salary cap violation.]]></description>

Saints will be 3-2 going into their bye week. Relax. They’ve got this under control.

Love the Saints but we&#039;re not beating GB. Rodgers is going to kill our defense. As Saints fans, it&#039;s great to stay positive! All honesty, it&#039;s not looking good leading up to the bye week. Might get a lucky 2-3, might. 
I&#039;d love for the Saints to win the next three games but I&#039;m not seeing it after these two weeks.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t think its so much Sean Payton&#039;s absence as it is his 5th string elementary school coaching replacement Zeke Wigglespoon or whatever his name is.

If Bill Parcells was the HC or at least a decent coordinator type they&#039;d be 2-0]]></description>
