Re: NFL Offseason: The Saints won the Superbowl, and are now Marchin on to the NFL Draft.
My thoughts:
1) SCREW YOU MANNING, AND YOUR IDIOT FAMILY!!!!!
ahem, sorry...moving on:
2) Couldn't be happier for the Saints. I was down there in December and those fans were really, really into the team this year, kinda like the Pats fans during their 1st SB run. Good for them. Just wish I had been on Bourbon St last night.
3) I didn't get all the so called experts calling this game for the Colts "no problem". I watched both teams play the Pats. The Colts couldn't even stop the poor playcalling offense of the Pats and should have lost the game were it not for an idiot Maroney fumble. Meantime the Saints gave NE a beatdown like I've never seen in the Belichick era. Neutralize a gimpy Freeney and Brees was going to pick apart that weak secondary all day.
4) Its not that I mind Manning per se, but somebody in his entourage needs to speak with him about the term "overexposure". Likewise, as long as Montana exists I don't know how you can even consider Manning "the greatest QB ever" not to mention Elway, etc.
5) Missing in a lot of coverage is the Saints kicker booting 3 critical long field goals to keep his team's momentum. Miss those and not only are the Saints behind two scores, but you give the Colts great field position.
6) Ballsiest call ever on the onside kick.
7) Can't believe the Colts didn't try to score after the goal line stand. 3 time outs, almost 2 minutes left. I could see visions of a killer TD with time running out in the half. Instead they give the ball back and put the Saints back in the game.
8) Wasn't it nice not to have Madden announcing?
9) Refs did a very good job calling this one fair, unlike previous Super Bowl. Never thought I'd say that, but all the ticky tack pass interference penalties the Colts live for never happened.
10) SCREW YOU MANNING!!!! (did I mention that already????)
