I am so burned by this image! My mom emailed me today with this just showing how insensitive and hateful some people can be! Bears fans hold up a sign at the Saints vs. Bears game saying "Bears finishing what Katrina started". My thoughts?Those jack@sses should have been stranded on the rooftops for days waiting for someone to come get them! They should have been 5 states away watching coverage of their home and not knowing if they had one to go to when they got back! They should have gone 2 weeks without electricity or a decent meal! They should have been stranded in the Dome with no water and no decent pluming!I wonder still if these insensitive peices of roach dung would bring a sign to a game in New York stating that their team will finish what the terrorist couldn't get to? Not only did they hold up this sign but they taunted one of the New Orleans reporters and made physical threats to him. Did they even see the game???? Their team won!!!! Just so everyone gets where I am coming from on this: I am from 1 hour outside of New Orleans. I was affected by Hurricane Katrina but not disasterously. I was one of the very fortunate ones. Our home was damaged but we were able to live in it. We were 5 states away watching on the news as this massive storm turned and hit us head on not knowing if our homes, friends, work and community would be there if and when we could return. I take this as a personal insult for these people to hold up a sign so mean and hateful. This year the Saints embodied the spirit of rebuilding New Orleans and for once we had a championship team! They went to the AFC Playoffs! Everyone here is so proud of them! I who doesn't even like football much less the Saints watched the last two games of the season and rooted them on. So I close this weeks rant with this:Stupid people with stupid signs should hold them up in front of large fast moving vehicles. Thanks for reading!Penny

I am sure that photo will come back to haunt him. Maybe not next week or even next year ... but what comes around goes around and that is totally uncalled for.

These guys are an insult to Jack@sses! This is absolutely disgusting behavior and shameful to all Bears fans... I cannot help but think that the minds of these "humans" are so toxic, that they can't even stand themselves... and will eventually cause harm to their own lives. I feel a great sorrow for them... but the Laws Of Karma deal very strictly with such energeticly poor behavior.

You tell 'em, Penny, what clods. I am glad you are okay, and we feel for the people who are STILL rebuilding or worse yet, STILL suffering. Chin up, rant on. It does make you wonder what these people use for brains and hearts.

wow, I wonder if being that stupid hurts? Yes, he should have to live on a rooftop for a few days and go without water and food. He might not have such a sh$t-eating grin on his face then. So insensitive. There are just some things you don't joke about...and one of them is someone elses misery. His day will come.
