Saints win:
http://www.slate.com/id/2242439/. They proved that luck most often triumphs over good, especially when good comes with five or so turnovers. No, the Saints might not have been on par with Minnesota, but they had their moments, didn't do as much ball coughing, and beat the living shit out of Brett Favre, who looked every bit like a forty something year old man playing tackle football at the end. I could be full of it, but I think the reason he didn't run for the sure ten yard pickup and solid field goal position on the last Viking drive was because he was plain dog ass whipped. Instead, he threw the textbook, "WHAT THE HELL IS FAVRE DOING!?" pass to a waiting Saints defender and the rest is New Orleans history, right next to the Loosiana Purchase and the invention of go cups. So glad I'm not a Vikings fan--they'll spend a good ten or so years in purgatory trying to exercise that golden memory. They'll get an extra twelve weeks of winter. The sun won't shine. Packer fans will prank call them 24/7. A lot of 'em will throw themselves down ice fishing holes or quit being Lutherans.
