Super Bowl

Well the Super bowl is over and I must say that while it was not the result I was pulling for, it still was a great win for the Saints, and especially the city of New Orleans. The game was rather pedestrian for the first half with the game seeming to fit right into the Colts hands, but the tide quickly turned when the Saints pulled an unprecedented call for a surprise onside kick to take away possession from the Colts, which payed huge dividends as they went down and scored. Who would have thought Sean Payton would something like that in a game of this magnitude, Talk about a game changing play, I guess fortune really does favor the bold.


Despite the sudden momentum shift I still felt that with Peyton Manning, the Colts were still in the drivers seat to retake control and win the game. It looked like that was going to happen, until Manning through an uncharacteristic mistake that cost the Indianapolis a touchdown. A that moment you cold sense that all was lost for the Colts. Even though I was not rooting for them, I can say with honesty that the Saints truly earned this win and deserve to hold their heads high as champions of the world. The signing of Drew Brees looks to have payed off after all, and the grumbles of Dolphins fans who wished their team would have taken the chance on him are growing even louder than before. This is quite a way for New Orleans to kick off Mardi Gras and it seems the party won't end until next season. This Championship truly means the world to the people of Louisiana who had to endure 42 years of shame from with no bright future on any horizon. Once more I give my congratulation to the Saints for a job well done and the Colts for a great season. March Madness and spring training are right around the corner.
