Who Dat?!

I couldn't think of a more fitting title to this entry than is stated. There is still the big game to be played but finally.....FINALLY, we got there. The 80's babies who grew up in the whodat nation understand that we have witnessed every playoff appearance (all 7 of them), every division championship (4), and now a superbowl berth. This franchise is over 40 years old and to put it in perspective, 15 teams have never won a superbowl and only 5 had never been (Lions, Jaguars, Texans, Browns, Saints). With the exception of the Lions, the other teams have only been around for 15, 7, and 10 years respectively (original browns franchise is now the Baltimore Ravens). Ironically the saints first play ever was a kickoff returned for a td. Since then, there was a 21 year wait for a winning season as well as playoff berth, 90% chance the team would be moved to San Antonio after Katrina, if it weren't for the objection of then NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliube, no Hall of Fame players and quite possibly the worst derivation of a team name in pro sports (Aints). You can't win the championship if you never get there....we finally did. WHO DAT

I think it's ironic that the qb (Favre) with the most passing TDs ever and most interceptions ever is on the same team as the guy who leads the league in rushing since entering the NFL a few years ago but also has the most fumbles over that time span. They combined for 2 INT and 3 fumbles against the Saints.

Shout out...and by shout out I mean shaking my head....to 7'0 Greg Oden who thought it would a good idea to send a full nude body shot to a young lady...who in turn sold it to an internet site after they broke up.

Cyber Jesus (yes, that's a real person for the last time) passed along this video. Apparently, this video sums up the Vikings fans reaction during the play in which Brett thru that backbreaking 4th qtr interception (fyi: foul language)


I'm not promoting this website...but the song is stuck in my head. I figured I would attempt to make it stuck in yours as well.


2-0 in picks last week. We know who I'm rolling with for the superbowl but we'll get into that next week. It's Pro Bowl Time!! I'm picking the NFC for no particular reason at all.
