Colts V. Saints

Do you watch the Super Bowl?

What are your plans?

Who are you rooting for?

(Personally, I'm cheering for the commercials. Damn football getting in the way of all my fun waiting to see what Budweiser came up with this year...)

Re: Colts V. Saints

  • I'm not a huge pro football fan but I'm exicted that the Saints are going to the Superbowl.  One of their starting players went to my college, and he's only the 2nd person from my school to be drafted into the NFL, and the 1st to play in a Superbowl so that should be fun to watch.
  • I LOVE the Super Bowl. This year I've been more into football than ever before, and I'm particularly glad that the Saints made it. I'm rooting for them, though I'm not too sure they can hold off the Colts.

  • I generally don't watch NFL (more of a college fan myself) but I've starting watching a little bit more this season.  I'm rooting for the Colts for the sole reason that I hope they win and Peyton Manning gets to host SNL again. I loved his show last time he won. 

    Oh, and the commercials are fun, too.

    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

  • I dont know what we are even doing for the SUperbowl - a party was contemplated but it looks like its off for now.  I had a super cute cake planned too so I'm bummed but no big deal.  I'm not sure who I'll cheer for, I dont really care about either team.  As close as we are to Indy, I feel like I should cheer for the Colts and I do like Peyton Manning but I also like the underdog aspect of the Saints since they've never even been to the Superbowl before and my brother is a Purdue alum and Drew Breeze is a Big 10 QB.  Either way, I guess I'll be happy.

    WHO DAT!

    Yes

    DH has to work but he may be able to rearrange his schedule to be off in time for the game.  We haven't talked about actual plans with anyone yet because everyone was planning big Viking parties around here.  Haha!

  • I'm not a true football fan, so I choose my team based on how I can obscurely relate them to my own interests.

    For instance,  I love the Kardashians. LOVE. And since Kim is dating Reggie Bush again, I'm routing for the Saints in the Super Bowl.

    Andplusalso, apparently, Eli Manning dissed San Diego a few years ago in the draft so all San Diegans hate him. And since Peyton is his brother, he gets the diss too. Although, my gramps coached their dad in little league waaaaay back when. Still, we're Eli haters in this city. Sorry, Peyton.

    ZOMG I do this too!! When I was younger I used to pick based on who had the prettiest colors or how hot the quarterbacks were. I'm evolved so much.

  • Speaking of how hot the quarterbacks are... did Favre last night not look like a cross between a little boy in his pajamas (untucked shirt) and an old grandpa (saggy old man ass)??!?!

    Reggie may have had something to do with my choice to cheer on the Saints.  Also I've actually been to NO as well as the Superdome so I feel better cheering on a team I "know".

    Also there is I have a really tacky stuck up co-worker from Indiana.  Kinda ruins it for me.

    Chrissy - I'm surprised you didn't mention anything about Brees being a former Charger.

    See, proof that I'm a disappointment to the football community -- I had no idea he used to be a Charger! How long ago? FTR, I've only lived in this state for 8 years.

    I don't know exactly how many years ago but he was the QB before Rivers.  He was only there a few years (less than 5).

    Yeah, and he sucked butt when he was here, moves to New Orleans, and starts winning games. Jackass. :P

    Because of the above reason, I don't like the Saints. However, I heard rumor that if Reggie wins the Super Bowl, he'll propose to Kim. And I think the world needs another Kardashian wedding television spectacular.

    I do love Peyton Manning, but only because he's pretty.

    Again, this is why I root for the commercials.

  • Really late to the party here, but I wanted the Vikings to win sooooo bad last night. Why, you ask? Because I thought if the Vikings won, and then went on to win the Superbowl, that there would be a good chance that Favre would finally retire. Now, there's a chance he will be back next year, only to have an amazing season and throw another effing interception when the game is on the line.

     That said, I hope NO murders the Colts. Being from New England our hatred for that team is infinite.

     As for what we are doing, we have a party every year religiously. In our old apt we could comfortably have about 20 ppl in our living room watching the game. This year, not so much. We're trying to figure out what our options are.

  • As a Cubs fan (believe me, this is related), I like to root for the underdog in every situation because I know what it feels like to always lose.

    For this reason, I would like the Saints to win.  We will probably have a party or at least friends over, as none of our friends ever host parties at their houses.

  • Yup, always watch the Super Bowl and usually throw a party. But this year (and yes I know this sounds awful) It's my niece's birthday so her parents decided to throw her a birthday party in the afternoon (WTF!!!) So I will go to that early and leave before the game starts. 

    I'm rooting for the Saints, I think they'll win too.

    Ugh, Ditto! I had some...not so nice...words coming out of my mouth last night watching the Vikings play! I was really rooting for them!
