Sean Payton reinstated, but Saints fans not letting Roger Goodell off the hook

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell finally reinstated New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton on Tuesday, ending Payton's suspension after nearly one full year

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell finally reinstated New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton on Tuesday, ending Payton's suspension after nearly one full year away from his team. Goodell's decision allows Payton to jump in and help with free agency and draft preparations -- in the latter case, likely beginning immediately with the Senior Bowl.

Payton's return also comes just a few days before the NFL world descends on New Orleans for Super Bowl XLVII. So, with their head coach back in place, Saints fans will be nice and welcoming for Goodell, right?

Sure.

I still think Roger Goodell should hire a body double next week in New Orleans. You know just to be on the safe side lol.

With the reinstatement of Sean Payton, Katrina overtakes Goodell as the most unpopular name in New Orleans.
