It is hard for me to watch the Saints -- and LSU -- because I get so upset if they are losing. You make some very good points, to be sure. But I believe the Saints are the culprits here. They have a chance to woo some northwest Louisiana fans -- many of whom prefer the Cowboys -- and what do they do? They charge outrageous prices for parking and tickets. I just don't get it. Why does it always have to be about the money? Why couldn't they have set prices that would have allowed more lower income whites and blacks to get the thrill of attending a pro football game? I attended many Redskins games during my years in Washington and I am still a big Redskins fan as well. But what the Saints have done is to turn a lot of people away after the state and the taxpayers have been so good to them. I will still be a rabid fan, but I don't plan on paying the price to see them in person. You can use this on your blog if you like. I applaud you, nevertheless, for your enthusiasm. Maybe I am just a bit jaded at this stage in my life. <BR/>LouAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
