I'm still working on a unified theory of national press generated Saints hate

There's that "classless" complaint about Brees breaking the passing yardage record Monday. There's the weird "dirty play" meme I've been tracking. There's that weird use of the memory of the Federal Flood as either a... um ... classless insult or as a perhaps even more belittling frame for increasingly contrived and saccharine side segments during nationally broadcast games.

There are other examples but, for whatever reason, someone is always at the ready with an excuse to belittle or ignore whatever the Saints happen to accomplish. No idea what that reason is but I'm working on it.

Meanwhile, please enjoy that Wang has crafted an appropriate response.
