Who is America's team?

Here's what irks me. This is on the cover of the CNNSI.com NFL page as a preview to their headline article:

"SI.com's Tim Layden says the Saints want people to focus on them as a strong football team, not a feel-good tale. Simple, all they have to do is beat the Bears on Sunday."

Isn't that what the media has been saying all year long? ("All they have to do is beat the Falcons on Monday Night..." "All they have to do is beat McNabb and the Eagles"..."All they have to do is beat the Cowboys in Texas Stadium"..."All they have to do is beat the red-hot Eagles in the divisional playoff round.")

Yeah, that's frustrating but unfortunately, because of our franchise's losing tradition, we'll only win certain people over with a trophy or with a few more years where we go somewhat deep into the playoffs. The Saints have continued to have to prove themselves because people from day 1 have believed that the train was going to wreck at some point. It's all good. Respect from the media is way overrated anyway.
