Haha, BBC it's on here so no commercials - we just saw a clip from Superbowl V for some reason.

Saints stuffed on 4th down! A Manning 2 minute drill could be decisive here.

Yeah, they barely pulled off 4th and G on the Vikes so I figured they'd go for it. The Colts taking a timeout was a good fail predictor.

Prolly the 2-minute warning? Maybe the timeout. There's a break there. You get those whether you have commercials or not. I gather that a lot of folks are watching it online, though, and you get American ads on that wherever you happen to be. There are actually a lot of people that seem to be excited about that on twitter, cause they just love American ads. :whistle:

I think I am going to take a nap during halftime.

I can't stand adverts of any sort, and watching Tebow tell women not to have abortions doesn't strike me as a fun thing, so I'm happy with the good old BBC and what they have instead, which is Alex Smith (yes, the cack 49ers QB), some middle aged journalist, and a presenter who does the football (soccer) programme occasionally on Saturday mornings and clearly knows fuck all about NFL and wonders what the hell he's doing here, chatting shit.

And not interesting shit, we're talking things like "so, Alex, you play this game, explain to us what a field goal is." Brilliant.

Haha brilliant, the BBC website is saying "Dylan" Hartley should be MVP for his "Touchdown" kick.

I'm no expert, but jesus fucking christ.

Was I the only one who heard the scream and moaning by every Colts' fan across the world? Such a beautiful sound to go with a beautiful interception.

I don't think you can give MVP to a coach, but Payton deserves it for the Saints.

Also, fuck all you who want to pile on me. FUCK YOU ALL. I have been nothing but nice. The Saints won this game on a fucking onside kick at half.

Again: FUCK ALL OF YOU WHO WANT TO PILE THIS THIS ON ME.



Whoa you need to calm down. I told you when we were posting earlier that I would say I told you so if the Saints won and you could do the same to me if the Colts pulled it out. No need to get crazy and act like that. Not cool.

I"m pissed and distraught.

Apologies, but one versus one fucking hundred gets old and tired. There's a reason I have tried to not comment here.

Sean Payton deserves every single bit of credit for this. No one else.

That's all. I'm done. If I keep this page up I'm going to piss everyone else off.

Sorry, but that's no excuse. Very few people were in agreement with my supporting the Saints but I didn't go off on them. I get that you're upset but some things are uncalled for.

Anyways it is what it is Great game, I'm happy for the saints.

Well you can accept it or not. It's sincerely meant.

Fuck it. There's always next year. At least they aren't the Lions.

Exciting game, fun to watch. Not surprising the Saints D pulled another touchdown out of their golden pants. They were the core of my fantasy football team all year for that reason.

More surprising was why the Colts didn't call time out on the 4th down play. It was do or die, you'd think they'd want to take their time. (And Reggie Wayne...since when does he not make that catch. Bringing it down to an onsides kick would have made the game even more interesting)

I might as well apologize to the entire thread as well.

I'm sorry.

I'm a ridiculous Colts fan. I have sunk ridiculous amounts of emotion, time, and energy into them.

However, that doesn't make being an ass okay. I apologize.
