Still in shock...

Or is that a hangover...I sat quiet most the game in my house, amongst the enemy.

Even as the niners go up 17-0. I stayed quiet, My pals telling me how great Brees is, and how the niners are as legitimate as the Broncos. I grinned and sipped my beer.

Then lightning strikes with 9 seconds to go. Vernon Davis on the 30th anniversary of "the catch", catches the winning TD score, and runs over Roman Harper (who had been giving us trouble all game) in the process.

When did Alex Smith become a quarterback? I wanted rid of him 3 years ago, glad I am not the GM. He is not the same man. Check under the helmet next time he's on the field, I think they slipped Montana in there as a ringer.

So when the catch was made, and the the clock reached zero, I looked at my stupid cousin who is from Alabama and a lifelong Saints fan and said:

Who dat? Who dat? Who dat say dey gonna beat dem Saints?

Then pointed at the TV showing a mass of celebrating red jerseys.

Then in typical fashion he starts blaming the refs, and making excuses. I just pointed at the TV again and giggled sarcastically.

I withstood a season of abuse from him...He deserved it.

All jokes aside, what an awesome game. Without the forced turnovers it would have been a Saints blowout.


Edit: Can we put Tebowmania to bed now? All fluff, and no substance against a real team, with a great coach who had a week to prepare for him.
