With time to settle in, I'm trying to put the Saints victory in historical perspective. I guess it would be best to put it to you. We can use this as a digression beyond sports but it's pretty basic. Finish this sentence.
The New Orleans Saints winning the Super Bowl is like......
-a funny Wil Farrel film.
-Oregon State playing in the Big Dance.
-Rick Neuheisel running a clean program.
-the Jets not eventually aggravating the hell out of Steve during a football season.
-Tiger Woods ever being taken at his word again.
-the San Jose Sharks not choking in the NHL Playoffs.
-Sarah Palin making an intelligent comment without peeking at her hand.
-Barry Bonds admitting what everyone knows.
-Boston Celtics fans not whining about every call against them.
Let's try this one. As far as turning that town on it's ear and being an eternal hero with those fans, at the professional level. Pick a sport and pick a team. Who would you like to lead to a championship?
I have another question for Blazer fans. Assuming they don't pull off a big trade, that Brandon Roy, Travis Outlaw and the like remain healthy. What are your realistic expectations? Playoffs? Win a round. Threaten LA's grip on the West. Let me know what you think.
