The second happiest day of my life!

I never thought I’d live to see the day; the day that the New Orleans Saints make it to the Superbowl. I’ve waited my entire life for this day! Hell, I’m at a loss for words right now because I’m just completely overcome with joy!
It was a hard game, but the Saints pulled it off in the end. One thing that pisses me off though is that no one seems to want to give the Saints any credit. I’m reading article after article on the internet, along with the comments posted on them, and it’s all Saints bashing saying that the numbers don’t lie and that the Vikings should have easily won that game. I’ve got news for you people, you can’t win a football game when you can’t hold on to the ball! I’m also tired already of reading about how the Refs blew 3 calls in overtime and that all 3 that were reviewed should have been reversed. Well, I’ve got more news for you. Did you bother to see the first 4 quarters of that game? The ones where the Saints got hit for 88 yards in penalties to the Vikings 32? Yeah, how they tried to NOT give Reggie Bush the touchdown that was obvious?
What about Joe Buck too? I was waiting for him to drop to his knees and start praying to Farve. He could not possibly have been any more unprofessional than he was tonight. A journalist is supposed to be unbiased and all Mr. Buck did all night was sit there and talk about Farve like he was willing to have his baby. After the game I switched over to ESPN and the Farve love continued. No one wants to give the Saints any credit. I guess that even though we started the season 13-0 means that we really suck.
And people, don’t give me that “the Vikings won on paper” bullshit. Higher stats /= winning the game. Sure, most of the time the team with the most yards wins, but once again, the Vikings had 5 turnovers to the Saints 1. We were better where it counted and the Vikings played like a Pop Warner team!
So, congratulations to the New Orleans Saints and to all the rest of you in Who Dat Nation! In 2 short weeks we go to Miami!
