Congratulations to New Orleans Saints and all the fans who have loved and supported this team since 1967! What a great victory for all of us who thought we'd never see it happen.
But I do have one question...why did Sean Peyton discuss the on-side kick with the referees? Uh? Yeah, that's what I said to myself when Peyton stated after the game that he discussed the play with the referees BEFORE they ran the play. Maybe I don't know enough about the inner-workings of professional football, but WHY would you discuss a trick play with anyone but your players and coaching staff? Was there some big meeting before the game with the referees to discuss the Saints and Colts game plan? Or is it customary to give the referees a "heads up" on a trick play so they can pay better attention to what's going on?
Maybe the paranoid side of me is getting the best of me, but the more I thought about it, the more I started to think, "Well, maybe the whole thing is scripted." Think about it. Everything leading up to the game is scripted (the location, the halftime show, the security, all the hype...). Why wouldn't the NFL script the game itself? There's billions of dollars involved in the game and everyone in the NFL benefits regardless of the outcome, so why not just script it like a movie and have it come out like you want? Not only that, but you could make an outrageous amount of money in Vegas, too!
Truthfully, I could care less. OUR SAINTS WON THE SUPER BOWL!!!! WHO DAT, baby!
