My Thoughts on the Superbowl

Usually, I don't have any opinions concerning the superbowl.  The Sunday before last, however, when the Vikings were playing the Saints to see who would make it to the superbowl, I, for the first time ever, got excited about a football game!  Being a loyal Minnesotan (and not having any previous prejudices to go by) I rooted for the Vikings, and was rather dissapointed in their performance.  So, when it came time to decide who I should root for at the superbowl I, like all the other Americans, had to make a tough decision: Saints or Colts?  My reasoning was that I hate the Saints so I should root for the Colts, but other people had said that they were rooting for the Saints so that, if the Colts lose, we will not look so bad.  Even that, however, could not change my mind about the Saints (I mean, we will look bad anyway - how many fumbles did we have?), so I rooted for the Colts.  Naturally, the outcome of the game did not really delight me.  Every single time I have actually gotten excited about a football game, my team has lost - to the Saints!  Thankfully, I am getting over it and hopefully will not hate the Saints forever.
