Who dat sayin dey gonna beat dem Saints?! Well, the Vikings thought they were but the Saints pulled through! Now before you even think it, no I did not hop onto the Saints bandwagon. They always have been and will be my number 2 team (my heart lies with the Redskins). I'm justso happy to see them going to the Superbowl!! They deserve it more than anybody. To quote Sean Payton, "4 years ago this room and holes and it was wet...it ain't wet no more". I'm sure you all remember hurricane Katrina. This hurricane devastated the city of New Orleans and some people weren't sure they would be able to make it back. Some people doubted the city. Some people doubted the Saints. Some people doubted the Who Dat Nation!! Especially after they lost those 2 games at the end of the season. But now, the city, the team, and the nation have proven those doubters wrong,they have made it to the Superbowl!
Now, this is just one of the many things that happened as a result of the game. The Vikings lost the game and because of that the "will he or won't he" talks have started for Brett Favre. He has retired multiple times and has comeback out of that retirement to play football. SO, now everyone is starting to talk about whether or not they feel Brett will return. Well, do you? Personally I figure he'll be back, AGAIN, and play some more football. The man is probably gonna play until he physically just can not do it anymore.
Now, the Superbowl. The 2 teams in the Superbowl are the 2 teams that went the majority of the season undefeated, Saint and Colts. The two teams were the favorites to win the Superbowl for the majority of the season mainly due to their explosive offensive potential. The Saints' lead by Drew Brees and Reggie Bush. These two players are by far 2 of the best and most explosive players playing the game. Their big play potential is one of the big reasons that the Saints are as big of a threat as the are. Another reason is their defense which is one of the best in the league at creating turnovers. If I remember correctly, they forced 6 fumbles in the NFC Championship and recovered 3 of them while also adding either 1 or 2 interceptions. When you put all of those things together, you have a Superbowl caliber team.
Now, what are your thoughts? Fee free to comment with your thoughts on the Superbowl!
