PrintCan't say how thrilled I am for NOLA. Yes, i bleed orange and blue, a byproduct of my parents being transported from Colorado to N.O. when i was a lad(Mom taught at U.N.O-Dad worked at Charity Hospital).
However, if there were ever a time i enjoyed a Super Bowl without my Broncos it was without a doubt this one. My first NFL game was the Broncos getting thrashed by the Cowboys at the Superdome. I grew up in N.O. East. (Any Resurrection Grade School/DiBennedetto/Brother Martin alum out there?). I remember Morten Anderson being the most popular (and best athlete) for years on end. "The Snake", Bum, Tom Benson, Crescent City Classic, Audubon Park, Masparo's, Cafe DuMonde,Kermit Ruffins.. (sigh)
I am so proud of my second city and so happy for all of you Saints fans!!. There's no place in the world like N'awlins and in my opinion nowhere will you find such genuine people.
Congratulations on this great win for such a great city and great fans! Enjoy! Ya'll deserve it!
Way to go guys! Ya'll have a ton to be proud of and even more to look forward to!
WOW! Mardi Gras starts in a week! I am so f**king jealous of ya'll right now! ;)

Maybe it's our time that we start catching some of the breaks, and start being the team that wins them like this in the end." -- Drew Brees

One more thing....
Just a s fan of football in general…
Has there ever been a ballsier call than onside to START the second half? WOW.
I’m pretty sure Sean Payton’s brass have been officially been put on the Hall of Fame Ballot.
Oh….i can’t think of any other or more dramatic SB play than that pick six….besides maybe the “immaculate reception”.
My dad is passed but I called a few weeks ago to tell my mom about the Saints going to the SB. Though a passive fan at best she distinctly remembers the Saints from our 28 years in N.O. and just started laughing, i could see her eyes rolling over the phone. She was the first to call me after the game from Denver, to go on and on how incredible this was. She’s 74 and I can’t remember the last time she was so giddy.

Your first game was the Broncos vs. Cowboys in the Super Dome?
How was this possible?
