Well we have some known facts to deal with here.
There are quantities of Russian-made MANPADS out there.
There have been known close misses to civilian airliners with MANPADS.
There have been known hits on civilian airliners with MANPADS.
There is the flt 612 AA pilots radioed air-traffic conversing to controllers what appeared to be a rocket had been fired at the aircraft and missed as American Airlines Flight 612
It is the FBI agents that say it is believed it was a flare or a bottle rocket that passed by and they don't think it was any threat to the aircraft.
So based on this and more I reject the pilot gods knee-jerk dismissal of those that don't share their view on these incidents as tin foil hat candidates, (jock strap carrying qualifications aside) /sarc>

Here are some more facts to deal with.
The New Orleans Saints have won football games.
The Saints have previously beaten the Atlanta Falcons.
The Falcons have been known to blow a game or two.
People have actually witnessed the Saints win a football game.
It is the evil John Madden that says that the Falcons are a better team than the Saints.
So based on this (AND MORE) I declare right now that the Saints will win the Super bowl.
After your post, mine actually makes more sense.
