If ya dont think the refs made some bad calls??? Vikes should have stomped them, turnovers killed them, and still had a chance to win the game in regulation play. BUT everybodys hero Favre cant run 5 yards?? Instead he throws ANOTHER pic.And that interfearence call?? Come on. Like i said its all IF AND OR BUT now. Its the saints and the Colts. Sure would be pissed if i was a Vikes fan. Reminds me of last year, when Favre was QB for the Jets, and they had a chance to make the playoffs with a win. Remember what heppened?? INT's all over.

By the way, I kinda get Jeff's hatred for Favre. Back in the day, we had to play Joe Montana twice a year. Sure do wish we had gotten Montana at the end of his career instead of, who was it, the Chiefs?---TB

Man, I remember watching a 49ers/Saints game back in the late 80's or very early 90's when the Saints QB was either Bobby Hebert or John Fourcade. The Saints wore out the Niners the whole game, but Montana snatched it away right at the end.

Poor Archie. He waited 30, 40 years for the Saints to make the Super Bowl and now he will root against them.

Bill---Its a win/win for Archie then I'm pretty sure he will be a masked rider in the Rex Mardi Gras parade on Fat Tuesday. N. O. folks wanted to play Peyton, a best case scenario; we've already beaten Eli and the old man from Kiln, which is about 70 miles away from here.<br><br>
According to radio reports yesterday, The Vikings/Saints NFC Championship Game was the most watched Non-superbowl program since the last episode of Seinfeld. <br><br>
After the win, the city erupted into a Mardi Gras sized celebration on Bourbon Street and areas surrounding the Dome. No violence to report. Fireworks went off everywhere after the ball sailed through the uprights in OT. <br><br>
Yesterday, Bobby Hebert broke down on the air when trying to talk about the Carolina game played days after Katrina and the flood. He'll be wearing a dress in honor of the late TV/radio guy Buddy D, who promised he'd wear a dress if the Saints ever made it to the Super Bowl. <br><br>
Buddy was a hoot, famous for mangling names, my favorite his calling Donte Stallworth by Donte Stallpepper. Callers calling in after games with unrealistic expecations were regularly referred to as "squirrels."<br><br>
A full page spread of a photo-shopped Buddy D in a dress appeared in yesterday's Times/Picayune. Widespread reoprts of stolen newspapers around the city. And that's what you get when Saints fans wait 43 years for a trip to the Super Bowl---T0M<br><br>
PS---A few other tidbits I found out about yesterday. In 2006, our newly hired Coach Payton tried to get Romo from the Cowboys but Big Tuna wouldn't turn him loose. Miami coach Nick Saban (or somebody in Miami) didn't want to pay for a San Diego QB coming off an injury so Drew Brees came to the Saints.

The greatest Gamecock, George Rogers, spent a few years in N.O. so that team is all right in my book. Go Saints!

And the refs helped em out as well. And the Vikes had a chance at least to win it in regulation time. BUT The guy with the most picks in NFL history had to add another. RUN FORREST RUN!<br>
