Forget the one-of-kind find (no offense Rick, I am still a number one fan), but I am still in shock/awe of the Saints' win. Right after Hartley kicked the winning field goal, I ran outside to see if pigs were flying. I ended up seeing fireworks and hearing blaring music with random Who Dat?! chants from around the neighborhood instead. What a night for the history books!
While I wish the NY Giants would have had a better season, I am pretty ecstatic about this NFC Championship win for the Saints (so what if I rooted against the Saints when they played the Giants). Yes, I am a Giants fan and a Saints fan (go ahead, hate me for it). I wish nothing but the best for the guys in NY who I spent the 2008 training camp with in lovely (in it's own twisted way) Albany; however, as a Louisiana native I have been raised to root for the Saints (and the Lions, despite both of their many losing seasons). The only time I will not root for the Saints (either openly or secretly) will be when they play the Giants. That being said, Feb. 7 cannot get hear soon enough!According to ESPN, when asked about returning for the 2010 season, Brett Favre said that it was "highly unlikely." Favre, you are (were?) a great quarterback, but really, take a seat on the bench (for good!). Kudos to a 40-year-old man attempting to prove doubters wrong. Now, for the love of the game, make a decision to retire or fight it out (until you get put on IR and are forced out), and stop the indecisive "I'm quitting, I'm coming back" nonsense! Oh what a long summer lies ahead of yet again the Brett Favre retirement craze--round three.
In more intellectual news...
I am slowly converting to a CNBC fan (eeek!). Trust me, I never saw this day coming, but I recently caught a special on Google and was instantly intrigued. Change is good. Perhaps this is a good change and maybe, just maybe it will aid me in my pursuit of an MBA.
