Here's to TFer vicejay, whose work sent him to the Super Bowl...the bastard. If he can, he's supposed to be sending me some pics to post in thread later tonight.

Yeah, I picked up WWL last night and heard him report from Miami in the middle of election coverage. Closest I ever came to attending a Super Bowl was a LONG time ago. SB VIII was at Rice Stadium in Houston where I was a freshman at the time; could've gotten a gig selling beer or popcorn, some deal along those lines. Didn't do that, but we did manage to make off with 5 kegs of beer the night before the game. There was security but nothing remotely like they have these days, and kegs were stacked at the top of a wall on the north end of the stadium (which was dark).


MixxMaster:

normally, I hope for a good close game, but after constant bombardment of stupid "who dat" crap (stupidest phrase ever) and the whole "Because of Katrina" crap...I hope the Colts just embarrass the Saints.

/sick of hearing the annoying Cajun idiots.
//first time in the Super Bowl, their fans shouldn't talk smack, especially for a team that has had a long history of suckage.

WHO DAT WHO DAT WHO DAT you calling an idiot, idiot? Really, who could imagine a team's fans being excited about them being in the Super Bowl for the first time, even more so in light of that history (the city's recent history too; bonus "fark yourself" for whining about how tired you are of hearing about Katrina, like they're not tired of living with it?)? Where is this rule about "no smack talk" by first-timers? Anybody else know about that one?

And you think they should apologize for their culture while they're at it, just because you're butt-hurt about Minnesota losing in the conference championship game? Don't think so. Maybe you should skip the game and find a nice block of ice to sit on and try cooling your ass off a little.

MixxMaster:

Take a farking pill Benway...I'm definately NOT a Viking's fan. Never really have been. Don't think that a person will follow the local team automatically. Lighten the hell up, Francis.

Katrina wasn't just this past year, or the year before...this would be like when the Giants went to the SuperBowl and all the talk was about 9/11 nonstop, as though they earned it, solely because of a disaster unrelated to the professional sport that is being played.
The "Who Dat" thing is something that does nothing but piss off non-fans of the team and is annoying, classless and does nothing but cause others to get more and more pissed off. Being obnoxious dickheads is not going to make anyone respect the fans and their team any more and would only hurt them both.

Once again...lighten up


You first. You don't really leave yourself a lot of room for lecturing. Or educating either, at least as far as the New Orleans area is concerned.

Is this another new rule I missed -- it's a person's prerogative to biatch and whine about crap here without the expectation of a possibly negative response from anyone? Dang, I am so out of the loop... where do I sign up for these memos?

Pastor of Muppets:

JerseyTim: Hey, did you hear that Dwight Freeney has a hurt ankle? Why isn't the media talking about it? That's a pretty big deal.

Yeah, and no one is mentioning anything about Peyton Manning growing up in Louisiana or his father playing for the Saints. Seriously, THIS IS NEWS PEOPLE!!


Strictly on the QT, mind you, but my sources tell me that Peyton Manning is a good quarterback.

But you didn't hear that from me, okay?
