http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/football/nfl/02/08/saints-payton-move.ap/index.html?eref=sihp I don't understand why Saint fans are so upset. If Tony Sparano won us a super bowl i could care less where he lived...
It goes with the disassociation sports fans in general have with employees of the team they root for. They lose the human aspect of things and view them largely as objects that they own when, really, lines of demarcation should be drawn. It's his life and his personal business. It's none of theirs. If the family wants to live in Timbuktu, deal with it. It's not uncommon. Doc Rivers coaches one of the best teams of his era while his family continues living in Orlando. Tony Dungy's family remained in Tampa during much of his tenure in Indy.
