Located in the heart of the deep south, New Orleans has been, and always will be a football town. Drew Brees and the Saints practically symbolize the city's rebirth post Katrina.
But the city's beloved Saints seem doomed for a long season, and truthfully, I feel terrible for the fans that have to shoulder the rest of the season. Sorry... love ya Drew.
Not only are the Saints 0-2, but Tulane football fans also have little to cheer for. The Green Wave lost its first two games against AAC opponents Duke and Georgia Tech by a total of 85 points and support for the team has dwindled, even with the latest win against FCS Main
Coinciding with the local football teams down season, the national and local media coverage has taken notice of the Pelicans preseason hype of Anthony Davis and crew.
