The Saints are the luckiest franchise on earth to have this all break on the cusp or free agency. Is anyone paying attention?

One has to wonder, if Goodell took this long with his BS Spygate 'investigation' would it have all blown over like this apparently has? I know the 24 hour news cycle leads us to beat stuff into the ground but we also drop things quickly when the next big story hits.

We are a fan base that love our team, but we are not blinded by our love either. Wether the NFL does its job to fine us, or punish wrong doing, we as NO fans will do what we can to make sure its a team we can be proud of.

We have been voted as the best fans in sports a number of times, and thats when we were losing. Hopefully we can band together again as fans and make our boys understand that this is not the kind of team that we want in New Orleans, and the conduct is not something that is acceptable to us.
Its already starting , and I think we can.

Hopefully we understand that sometimes being a fan means you have to change the bad, and accept it along with the good. Our team made a mistake, they deserve punishment for that. IF the NFL buries this, we can not. Its important to us that we love our team for the right reasons, its just our culture. I think it means a lot to the fans of NE that Brady is of high moral character also. This kind of thing is very embarrassing to us. Mr Benson is a good man, I think he understands this. WE need to correct our behavior , and we didn't deserve to be in the SB, its not worth it. WE work very hard to make other fans and their families welcome in our home, this undermines us all. This is not NO football, we are not proud of this.
