Living History...

I wouldn't be a TRUE Saints fan (or a good blogger) if I didn't report on the Saints winning the NFC Championship and getting a bid to the SUPERBOWL!!! I mean seriously, the SuperBowl!!! I witnessed history last night. For the first time in franchise history, the New Orleans Saints are going to the playoffs! It was a great game and hard fought by both teams. Poor. old Brett Farve just needs to hang it up, again. But for real this time...

Two weeks is just toooooo long to wait to see my Saints play in the 'ship! I guess I will wait, and in the mean time think of all the fun Saints stuff I can get for the house, where I am sure I will be joined by my other Saints-crazed friends to watch the game!

I love Louisiana. I love New Orleans. I love our culture, our food, and our spirit. I am so excited for the state, the city, and the football team! A lot of pride comes with the win last night. I think Sean Payton said it best last night:

"This is for everybody in this city...This stadium use to have holes in it and use to be wet. It's not wet anymore. This is for the city of New Orleans. "
