husband rooted for the Colts simply because, as he put it, "I have heard people rooting for the Saints because they 'deserve' it after Katrina."
I rooted for the Saints because, in my opinion, they deserved it. Katrina be darned.
I was thrilled. Actually understood what was going on thanks to Jett's football. When they challenged the "no good" on the 2-point conversion that put them at 24/17, I was hoping the refs would look at it again - because the ball was across the line till he got tripped over.
But I know some people would argue that. He came down with the ball in hand. Almost lost it but managed to hang on.
Unfortunately I was on the phone with sister in law when they intercepted and scored that last TD. That one I got to watch on instant replay. And the poor Colts - at 1:16 in 4th they tried. They just couldn't get past those Saints. I don't know what it's called in the NFL, but our boys would take a knee at that point.
