2010 AFC - NFC Pro Bowl: Open Game Thread

Well, it's finally here. The game in south Florida that all Saints fans have been waiting for so long to watch. The biggest event in NFL history. Of course, I'm talking about...the Pro Bowl! 

Okay, okay, I know sentiment regarding this game is not positive, to say the least. But it's still a professional football game and it's Sunday so we're gonna have an open thread. If you're sitting around just watching this game and waiting for next week to finally get here, come join us and chat won't you.

Or, if you'd like, consider this a very early pre-game Super Bowl open thread.

Vilma talking some sh** on NFL network, pregame

“Why are we talking about Brett Favre? We need to be talking about our game with the Colts.”

“Kurt Warner and Brett Favre are on our resume. We’re not talking about that. We’re getting ready for the next challenge.”

Paraphrased.

YESSSS!!! Tell ‘em, 51. And be kicking somebody’ ass.

backed up the DVR- Vilma has a lot of class, speaks well

Michael Irvin to Vilma: Not traveling back to New Orleans, to travel to Miami with the rest of the team tomorrow? You don’t want that memorable experience of stepping off the plane in Miami with your teammates?

Vilma: Out of my control. The pro bowl Saints will stay at the team hotel tonight. It’ll be more memorable to step off the plane in New Orleans after we win next Sunday.

Vilma: We won’t do anything malicious or hit after the whistle but we want to play hard.

Loving it

I think we are going to see an extremely pumped defense for this game. Vilma is a well spoken and kind of chill by nature type of guy. If he is getting pumped like this then Peyton needs to be afraid.

Missing home and my Saints.

Off topic

but potentially HUGE!!

According to the wwltv.com front page as Breaking News:

ESPN Reports Colts DE Freeney has torn ligament in ankle

ESPN.com has just reported that Pro Bowl DE Dwight Freeney has a torn ligament in his ankle, which will make it difficult for him to play in the Super Bowl.

He'd be doing a better job than Eric Mangini. I guarantee it.

He could maybe even step in at center attacking midfielder. Oh… Wait. Wrong football.

Sharper was just joking about roughing up QBs

how much you want to bet the media will take it out of context and try to make bulletin board material out of it?

I was watching the pre-game stuff to see our guys. I don’t care much about the actual game itself. I’ll hang around looking for glimpses of our guys.

All I care about is that we win!

they will have excuses no matter what.

when we get 4 TAKEAWAYS, they’ll say their offense “gave it away”.

they’re gonna call our defense “dirty”.

they’re gonna say the refs called a bad game.

NO MATTER WHAT, there will be excuses made.

I wish no injury on anyone, but if it helps us win, I’m not going to complain.
