Was post Katrina affirmative action the reason the Vikings - Saints game was rigged in favor of the Saints?

Every team that played the Saints last year have to feel the same way. The league wanted them to win. It gave them 24 hour a day pictures and publicity of how great a NFL team can be for an illiterate city. When they talked to the people of New Orleans it reminded me of coverage when they ask the hillbillies what their going to do now after their trailer was blown away by a tornado.
