To clear up things. The Saints brought bats to the field in 2009 as motivation, nobody said anything. Panthers used the bat as a symbol for "bringing the wood". Second, OBJ got the star treatment and he's let the Madden cover and the fame get to his head. Notice how the Giants are doing anything to deflect blame to Carolina, finding anyway to justify what OBJ did and save face.

Saints didn't threaten players with their bats, to be clear. Panthers as a team are egotistical, showboating morons. I hope they lose their first playoff game. In fact, I hope it is a beatdown like the Colts got last season.

And obj isn't showboating before every single game when he puts on a show making all of those 1 handed catches and trick stuff.
