N'arleans is getting hit by another hurricane. 18 point diff now. NO does not seem able to hold onto the ball, they have lost three turnovers. Perhaps there is oil in the water down there? Go Bears
i can't wait for the pats to kick the bears arse in the super bowl {if they smarten up and play right} remember 85?what was the guys name who was a grad that played for the pat's
the worst thing about the next two weeks is how many times we're going to be subjected to this... I think I lose 5 minutes off of my life every time I hear that...
Talking about old Superbowl games - I don't remember what year it was, but it was in the mid-90's, when Greenbay went to the SB - that was a great game!
Some Saints Fans Say the Weather in Chicago Wasn't Nearly as Cold as the Fans
The Saints may have lost the NFC championship, but you certainly couldn't tell from the mob of fans that came out in New Orleans at 1:00 in the morning to welcome them home.
And, fans that arrived home from Chicago were just as supportive of their team even though many of them took in some extremely crude comments from Chicago fans.
In fact, Saints fans say it was cold in the ‘Windy City,' but not nearly as cold as some of the people there.
Those Saints fans tell 9News that some Bears fans made reference to Hurricane Katrina in their taunts.
WAFB's Avery Davidson was at the Baton Rouge Metro Airport, where Saints fans were glad to return to southern hospitality.
Just to be clear, the fans Avery spoke with say the majority of people in Chicago were very nice, but you know what they say about a few bad apples and it appears some were very bad.
It's easy for Saints fans to push away Bears fans that interrupt their interview, but pictures like this one hit much deeper.
Even when folks from Chicago try to apologize...
One Bears fan says, "Some of these Bears fans, you know, just don't have no class. *beep*"
This guy was interrupted by one of his own. Back to the picture, you may have seen it on The Dead Pelican.com. The sign reads, "Bears Finish What Katrina Started."
You have to wonder if that fan knew what Katrina started and that the flood waters brought more than 1,000 Louisiana lives to an end.
Tricia Jett says, "It's very, very disappointing that there are people that would take something that happened so bad for our city and try to turn it around over a football game."
Tricia Jett is one of several people just arriving at the Baton Rouge Metro Airport from Chicago. Every Saints fan who spoke with 9News said they had at least one run in with a rude Bears fan.
Avery asks, "What were they saying that was so rude?" The guy responded, "I can't say it on camera."
That did not stop some of them from spouting expletives right after the game.
One woman says, "They have not been very nice... *beep*."
One Saints fan says she has a memory she can't bleep out. This is what she says a Bears fan had to say at her hotel.
Susan Joly says a Bears fan said, "'Oh yeah, you thought Katrina was bad' and just really not giving them any chance to say, you know, the man lost his wife and child in Katrina and they were ragging him over that and it was just terrible."
Another Saints fan said after going to several cubs games, he expects to run into people around Chicago who cross the line.

The Saints (Reggie Bush) just ran an 88 yard touchdown.
The score difference is now a two point game.

Garth -- the Minney-soda Vikings have been there 5 TIMES,
and have lost each time.
The only other team with a comparable record,
was the Denver Broncos (also 5 and 0 for a superbowl win)--
when they finally broke that losing streak.
