The shame of this is that Saints fans are among the NFL's most loyal viewers.

The NFL elected to use three referees from southern California to officiate the game, including one former Rams player... hard to deny a bias for the Rams when officiating so blatantly decided the game.

My family members who attended that travesty said there were only about 10 Rams fans in the stadium. The week before the Eagles brought THOUSANDS with them.

This will affect the city of Atlanta, too, I think.... Saints fans always travel in droves to Atlanta. The Rams don't even have fans, it seems.

Word of the boycott is spreading! Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama have more NFL fans than one would think... AND THEY'RE PISSED.

that the game was rigged, to build a fan base for the transplanted Rams. As always in the NFL it is all about the benjamins.

On that basis I suspect the Raiders will be appearing in a Super Bowl in the near future.
