    As a Saints fan since 1967, I'm just gonna say that the Saints had an amazing run of bad luck in the playoffs under Sean Payton after Bountygate and that I'll be watching with keen interest to see if that bad luck followed Payton to Denver or stayed in New Orleans. I suspect that Roger Goodell told Payton to kiss the ring and Payton told Goodell to kiss his ass.

    That pass interference replay is the most egregious cheating that comes to mind in any replay ive ever seen.

    He is worthy but that list has some real names on it. Usually the problem.

    It was impossible to find any rationale for that call.

    He knocked the guy clear off the screen and the official was staring straight at it. Then they watched it again and said no interference. Some kind of jedi mind trick i guess.

    I agree it is the worst call I’ve ever seen, shocking really.

    I cant come up with anything except straight cheating and it cant just be one person to pull off something like that. That's organized.

    Like the year Russia beat USA in Olympic basketball and the Swindle in the Swamp.

    He was screwed from Pro-Bowl appearances because of Jacksonville’s small market appeal.

    4.6 yards per carry over a 13 year career playing behind a mediocre o-line (Boselli was only around for his first 3 years) should get you in.

    Google what Troy Polamalu and Ray Lewis said about him.

    Met Fred a couple times in school. Cool guy. Hope like hell he gets in.

    Well I guess there were no replays at the Swindle, but that Chris Leak "fumble" up at Auburn was pretty egregious too.

    There have been plenty of bad calls but that one kept the Saints out of the superbowl and theres just no way to mess up that call

    Actually, The Swindle is what caused college football to have replays.
