Saints Fans Slapped Down by Federal Judge
Published:
New Orleans Saints fans, who just can’t let it go, took another L today, this time at the hands of a U.S. District Judge.
Two season ticket holder jabronies filed a lawsuit, asking the NFL to invoke a rule allowing Commissioner Roger Goodell to step in and order a redo of the NFC Championship Game as a result of “extraordinarily unfair acts.”
Sports Illustrated legal analyst Mike McCann:
U.S. District Judge Susie Morgan, in perhaps the most predictable ruling in the history of American jurisprudence, declines to order Roger Goodell to take action in response to the blown call in the NFC Championship. Why? Because a football injustice isn't a legal injustice. pic.twitter.com/taJetF7o1T

“Football injustice isn’t a legal injustice.”

Saints fans are just gonna have to move on and stop wasting everybody’s time.
