well, as you all know, the superdome was taken over as an evacuation place when hurricane katrina hit. i had been wondering what the new orleans saints would do since they can't play in new orleans.
http://www.canada.com/sports/football/stor...1f-56a20353028e it says that they will be playing "home" against the NY Giants in the giants/jets stadium...but they don't know when the game will actually take place because of the other games in the East Rutherford Stadium. I also heard that it'll take years before the New Orleans Saints will actually play in their hometown, New Orleans again. this may actually be a good thing for the Saints because now they're playing FOR their own people. |

....well there's a lot of controversy about the whole "New Orleans Saints homegame at New York Giants stadium". Personally, I think it's a bunch of BULL.
how are you gunna have a saints home game at a giants stadium? do you really think that any saints fans from down south are going to fly to new jersey (especially in this condition) to support their football team? i think not. there were plenty of other options as to where this game would take place. for example, they could've moved the game to one of the college stadiums in lousiana, mississippi, or even texas. atleast SOME saints fans would show up to support their team. (the ones that own season tickets, mostly.) so basically, the whole matter was about money. MONEY MONEY MONEY. yes, it was. they figured..."oh yeah, you know them new yorkers. they'll pay to go to the game and we'll make loads of money." in all reality, there won't be a single new orleans fan on monday night. why? because they're all slapping themselves on their heads because they can't fly up to new jersey. it won't even be a new orleans home game...so i have no idea why they're even labeling it as one. go ahead...slab some new orleans saints labels on the stadium and paint a logo on the field...but that's as much support as they're gunna get. |
