blind love? Sorry, but there is nothing blind about it. The city of New Orleans has always loved the Saints (See Deuce McCallister, Rickey Jackson, Sam Mills) and when you have a guy that is one of the best at his position and is one hell of a person, what do you think is going to happen?
I understand you are not a Saints fan, but would you not love having a person and player like Brees to be the face of your franchise?
