Super Bowl Thread: Colts vs Saints, 6 p.m.
Who you got? My money (not really) is on the Colts, but there are few things I prefer about the Saints. Those things are: Reggie Bush and the sparkly cheerleaders. I mean, have you seen their cheerleaders? Sparkle City. Still, I don't hate the Colts the way people seem to think I should and I actually like Peyton Manning. Either way I don't really care.
SB Nation is trying something new this year with an all SBN Game Thread so if you want to chat up the game you can head there, or of course stay within the friendly confines of Camden Chat. zk is preparing some fabulous guacamole for his Super Bowl party but I'm willing to bet a few of you are like me and watching from home on this winter weekend.
The best thing about the Super Bowl is that the second that it's over we can start thinking about baseball full time. Spring Training is just 11 days away!

That, and i’m off to Mardi Gras on Tuesday, and it’ll be much more fun if the Saints win.
I'm so glad I turned it on just in time for the field good Katie Couric segment

Go Saints
I can’t stand that team in Indy winning anything.
And I won’t be preparing much food, as my water pump under my house has been flooded AGAIN (3rd time in 6 weeks after never in 13 years), so I’m working on that. The joys of home ownership…

The Last Airbender, huh?
That’s what had me confused when Avatar came out. I kept wondering when the kid with a down arrow on his head was going to show up in the commercials. ’Cause the cartoon is Avatar: The Last Airbender.

I saw the puppy bowl at 3.
It’s the most adorable TV program I’ve ever seen.
And way, way better than whatever The Who is doing. I ran up to eat dinner and then I came down to their performance…it was not pleasant.

I'd be happy for just about any team
that beat Indy in a Super Bowl. Of course, I’d rather Indy goes 0-16 from now until the end of time, but this will do for now.

Kids today, I swear....
I know, you were 5 when the Colts left. I was 15, and left to watch the REDSKINS for football for a decade plus after that.
Screw Indy, screw that fat, dead drunk Bob Irsay, and screw his slick-haired, I want $25 MILLION for the Colts name kid. Only thing that would have made it better was if they never made it to begin with .
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
Yeah I was 5
and now I’m 31. It’s been a long long time. The Ravens have been here longer than the city was without a football team. I guess I don’t know how people feel and I’m certainly not one to tell people how they should or shouldn’t feel. But it doesn’t mean anything to me. My dad agrees with you though.

why do Saints fans keep saying who dat?
Vizzini: Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates?
Man in Black: Yes.
Vizzini: Morons.
Because that's their saying
“Who dat say…” has been a part of New Orleans slang for a long time. It dates back to ‘83 with the Saints, but the phrase was around in the 1890’s in various popular culture.
I’d list sorces, but I looked it up a while ago for my girlfriend and that’s all I remember. I have no idea where I found it, but i’m sure a quick google would proviode the answers.
"I doubt he could reach [second base]...mostly cuz his fucking arm was in Aybar's nuts." – twistedlogic
I have a couple of friends from N.O. who are HUGE Saints fans and they never say who dat. I thought the phrase sprung from a recent incident or a player like Kevin Millar and cowboy up.
Vizzini: Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates?
Man in Black: Yes.

That's crazy
that’be like a Packers fan not knowing about cheeseheads, or a Jets fan not knowing (or at least never using) the ever annoying “J-E-T-S” chant.
I'm sure they KNEW about it
They just never said it…. or I never heard them say it.
Vizzini: Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates?

Who Dat!!!!
As in “Who Dat Say Dey Gonna Beat Dem Saints!”. My friends in NOLA say it constantly. And it’s all over the Saints blog-world. Of course it comes from the local accent, as in “Where Yat?”, which means “How are you?”

I didn't stay up for the game
It started 1:00 am my time, and I’ve got to work. But boy did I wake up to some fine news! Those Phoney-Ponies still have their special place in hell, and there has only been, and will ever be, but one Johnny U.
OK, time for pitchers & catchers!
Love N'awlins, Hate the Colts
Fabulous game. Enjoyed it at at party here in Los Angeles. And, unlike Stacey, I have no trouble hating the Colts. I guess they are not as bad as the Yankees, but in the same league.
