Did we sell our soul for SB XLIV?

I have been a Saints fan since 1966 and was at the very first game. I have seen the absolute worst and absolute best of this team. That one super bowl win wiped away all the heartache and heartbreak that we suffered. I just hope we don't have to wait another 45 years to get rid of that stench of the Rams/refs and Minnesota miracle. The only saving grace is that 28 - 3 miracle that brings out a smile. 🤣🤣🤣. Here's to this upcoming season WHO DATS!!!!
I don’t think the Rams game doesn’t hurt as much because Payton and Brees had already won a championship.
As much as that game sucked, I don’t think it hurts as much as the Browns close playoff losses in the 80s because they were still perceived as a loser franchise.
