Another Great Year for the Saints

AINTS

My family and I have been cheering for the Saints for many years now. I don’t really remember the ‘Aints” era, but I do know that it is saying a lot when Saint’s fans are disappointed by a close loss in the second round of the playoffs versus disappointed with an entire season. I hate that they did not win today, but it really was a great game, and should a team really win when they have 5 turnovers? I think that my heart rate has finally returned to normal; I really thought thought that they had pulled it off with that touchdown by Jimmy Graham in the last two minutes, but Alex Smith and the 49er offensive was just too strong. I hope that during the off-season they can pick up a number of players to improve the defense. Here’s to next year, and at least that loss was from the 49ers and not the Falcons.

Just for the record, B.B. and I share the same hometown. He still makes it back to Indianola, MS once a year for a summer concert.

I have been cheering for the Saints for over 23 years now. My parents gave me a Saints helmet when I was 10 years old. When my family moved to Hattiesburg, everyone in my family really adopted the Saints since they are only an hour and a half away. I will never forget the feeling of knowing that the Saints had won the Superbowl! Here are a few photos from our Superbowl Party:

Jason cooked up some great ribs!

I just watched the Tracy Porter interception for the 100th time. I could watch that play on a loop for hours and hours. JJ and I went to Petal to view the game with some friends of ours. We ate way too much and had a great time~! When Porter intercepted the ball, my heart froze. I gasped for air. I just knew that the Saints were going to win their first Super Bowl. I will never forget that feeling. The following are not my videos but the reaction was similar at the party I was attending.

We had a nice second week in Kentucky. On Wednesday we took off to Metropolis to visit Harrah’s Casino. We stayed here for a couple lost a few bucks, had lunch, and came back. I have been going out on my walks everyday trying to get back in shape and grab some photos.

Today we stayed around the house and watched the Saints destroy the Cardinals. I ordered JJ and I a couple shirts that benefit the city of New Orleans from Louisiana Online Mall. They are supposed to be delivered before next week’s game. Tomorrow is church and then hopefully will watch the Vikings beat the Cowboys.(Sorry Seth)

Here are some photos from the past couple of days.
