Thanks for the link.

All homerism aside, I really see no reason why a decent number of people are picking the Eagles. This team just struggled beating a Giants team that the Saints demolished. Taking away the meaningless Carolina game, the Saints have outscored their opponents 147-53 in their last 5, and that's including the loss to Washington. Saying the Eagles are the hottest team in the NFC is bull****.

Comparing how one team plays another is about the dumbest thing you can do when analysing a game. If you can't understand that a playoff game, against a division opponent, playing for the third time, is going to be a hard game then I don't know how long you've been watching football.

thats just it, you dont know. Homefield advantage favors the Saints. This could be a route...and if it is, Saints win it.

Your first sentence doesn't make a lick of sense to me.

The fact that you played the Giants three times doesn't change the fact that the Eagles squeeked by a Giants team that had no business being in the playoffs.

It makes sense because both teams are familiar with each other and there is a huge emotional rivalry. Plus it was Tiki's last game and the Giants were playing with a sense of purpose.

Just curious, but why are you pulling for the Eagles?

My brother lives in Philly and he's an Eagle fan, I'm hoping his team can win one for him.

Nothing against your guys though.

That's cool. I've just been pissed off about comments from some that want the Saints to lose because they're "tired of hearing about Katrina". No doubt that it's been beaten over viewer's head by ESPN, but the city sure as **** hasn't recovered from it and a lot more needs to be done.

Oh yeah, anyone that says that is really insensitive..

from my understanding that region is still recovering from that, and still need a lot of rebuilding done.

No doubt, but not just for anyone reading this, but the friends of those who are reading this who may be considering vacationing here: do it. Not only do we need the cash, but everything you would have wanted to do/visit before the hurricaine is EXACTLY as it was before. Our primary tourist areas did well as they were most all above sea level. The places hit HARD are mostly residential.
