The curse of the plunderers? (
Bucco Bruce) I wonder who the hell uncovered this statistic?
Some stats are so meaningless and reliant on weird quirks of history (
'Redskins Rule' anyone?) but it is really fun at times to see them still be "held up as truth" (too bad the Cowboys won in this year's playoffs; now a new streak of futility will have to begin).
Even though I didn't watch the 2006 NFL season at all, I think The Saints got hosed by bad weather and a lights-out Bears defense able to make good use of the conditions. If it were a neutral field in relatively good weather, then I'm sure we might have been saying around now, "Well, I wonder is going to win this rematch in Miami
this time?".
