Christmas may have been a month ago, but try telling that to any New Orleans native, regardless of whether that person is a Saints fan. To believe such victory and triumph from such a moribund franchise seemed unfathomable before Hurricane Katrina. If you are a fan of humanity, regardless of your sports interest, you are pulling for the Saints as if your grandmother’s life depended on it (assuming you like your grandmother). There is also the Archie Manning exception; how can you root for your own child to lose? The answer is easy: root for the team that no one in a million years thought would even be able to buy Super Bowl tickets, let alone play in the game. Disclaimer: the Browns, Lions, Jaguars and Texans do not enter this conversation, because no truly sane NFL fan thinks any of these teams will appear in a Super Bowl. To maintain his number in the Saints’ ring of fame, Archie Manning should denounce his child for one week, and root for the team he never took the playoffs, the one and only New Orleans Saints. Put it this way: if the Colts and Giants were playing each other in the Super Bowl, would Archie really root for both teams to win? Hardly. Archie would root for one to win more than for the other; it is inevitable. Saints fans, what do you think? Should Archie be forced to forfeit his spot in the Saints ring of fame if he does not openly and whole-heartedly support the Saints on Sunday?
