Ulitmate Jinx?? Vegas Makes Saints Superbowl FAVORITE

11-07-2009, 08:19 AM

It's about damn time. We've arrived boys and girls and you better enjoy it because we may never pass this way again. It took 42 years to get this far maybe we'll be the team of the 2010 era.

I BELIEVE, I BELIEVE, I BELIEVE!

This is hilarious!

After I got home from Baghdad, I took a vacation to Vegas with the wife. the ONLY gambling I did was to take a bet on sports futures on the Saints!

At the time of the bet (July) the book makers had little love for our boys and had the following odds:

Win the NFC 8:1
Win the Super Bowl 13:1

Odds on Favs at the time to take the NFC- The Eagles, followed closely by the Bears and believe it or not, the Cowboys

Super Bowl Favs were Patriots followed by the Colts

I hope its not a jinx. I'm making close to $1300 on a $100 bet if our boys take it all! ROFL

I was in Vegas in March and made a bet on our team to win. I got 18:1 in March on Saints to win the Superbowl.

Everything you said makes good sense except for the part where you said we may never pass this way again. This is a franchise that is built to be a dynasty.

1st we have to win something.
"dynasties" are rare, and I've seen teams in the past that "couldnt lose," and
disappointed every year, until their integral parts all got old, so they went from "potential dynasty" to "rebuilding" in a couple of years.

but otherwise, I'm having a blast now!

I imagine that Tennessee fans are having the same feeling.
