It's time to play the game
 
Two weeks between games and here it is, day 10 and the whole thing is getting ridiculous. Every year, the same ole shinola, trite reporting on trivial matters, wild opinions by lazy "analysts" and utter saturation to the point where you stop caring.

We can't even get a good discussion going here because we're all being drowned out by the incessant coverage. Everyone is in id mode, reacting with our reptilian brains to whatever monumentally moronic observation or silly stunt going on in Miami. Every day, I scan the posts, looking for a really good argument, and there's nothing but dreck (no offense to those who are truly trying to provide insight.)

Why not just play the game 1 quarter each day? That way we can dissect something meaningful and extract the maximum nonsense out of the whole affair. We can adjust Football to be like Cricket!

Anyway, does anyone have SOMETHING interesting to say? PLEASE!!

I have the flu. Been bed ridden for the past three days, so I am enjoying all of it. It's not every year, the Saints are in the Superbowl. Let the players focus on the game, and let the fans enjoy the ride, is how I see it.

Be patient. Just remember, every day that goes by is another day Shockey has to reach 100%. We need all our players at 100%. We can sacrafice a few more days. We've waited forty three years for this, what's four more days.

Nope. I think it will be Manning, no matter what the outcome Sunday. He's on everything else!

I'm just biding my time till Saturday, when I fly down to NOLA with wife and kiddo. Praying we don't get bad winter weather than delays me terribly.

Well, I have waited all my life for this so I guess a few more days won't hurt. I am, however, done with all the talking heads....it's time to unplug everything in the house until Sunday! If I hear one more story about how Manning can shoot thunderbolts out of his arse and turn DBs to stone with his snake hair I think I'm going to puke.

The Jets were able to confuse the Ponies Offense for the first half of the championship game and I am certain our D can do better than that. The Jets were just unable to keep it's offense going after Manning pegged their schemes. As long as Brees keeps the pedal down and putting points on the board it won't matter if the mystical, magical Manning starts to figure out the D.

Geaux Saints!

For once I now know how all the previous first time teams felt. It is overwhelming and hopefully the players and coaches that have been there in the past can keep the team in the proper frame of mind. This is torture enough on us fans.

Forget football. It's all about the hype from here on out. Until kickoff that is...
