There is a lot of hype over the New Orleans Saints' return to the Superdome on Monday night. They are undefeated, and the whole city waits in anticipation of this game, which will signal a rebirth of the city.
But does everyone see it that way? Do those that left after Katrina and never came back really care that much about this team? Our Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs grew up in New Orleans and he said his parents vowed to never, ever go back. Do those that are still waiting for FEMA money to rebuild their houses really care if the Saints win on Monday night? Maybe they wish some of the $185 million spent on repairing the Superdome had come their way.
A moment to watch on Monday night. The coin toss will be from George Bush, Sr. I wonder what the reaction will be and if fans will take out some of their frustration with W on his father. But then again, seeing how history illiterate many people are, maybe lots of people will hear the name George Bush and just assume it's W.
