And this is for those like Kilmer, Abramowicz, Parks, Fears, Dodd, Stonebreaker, Manning, Brock, and more...players who could only dream of a season like this in New Orleans, and who deserved it so much. I especially wish that the Dome Patrol could have gone to a Super Bowl together...this one is especially for them.

I just saw this. I posted kind of the same thing.

I think this is even more special for guys (and gals) like us. Congratulations brother, we lived long enough to see it.

They just showed the Hartley FG kick on ESPN and hearing Jim Henderson's words just made me tear up again. Man, I need to go to bed already!

It's all starting to set in today. I cried when that field goal went in and they all started piling on on each other. What an amazing feeling!!!

Didn't it just do your hearts good to see Hartley on the ground being congratulated...shuffled around....thrown around....hugged...kissed...by his teammates? And to watch Sharper running around the dome with that beautiful trophy! They didn't focus enough on the Saints, though. They were in too big of a hurry to get back to their stupid Favre. But people, our day is here!
