Are you ready for some football?

It appears the New Orleans Saints are not. :-þ

No one else has made us a football thread today, so I'm making one. It looks like the Saints vs. 49ers is not going to be very exciting. Unless your idea of exciting is setting a postseason record for turnovers. Hopefully, the second game will be more interesting. Brady vs. Tebow - it can't possibly live up to the hype, but it's gotta be better than 17-0 in the first quarter.

Joke to fill up the word count:

God asks Peyton Manning first: "What do you believe?" Peyton thinks long and hard, looks God in the eye, and says, "I believe in hard work, and in staying true to family and friends. I believe in giving. I was lucky, but I always tried to do right by my fans." God can't help but see the essential goodness of Manning, and offers him a seat to his left.

Then God turns to Tony Romo and says, "What do you believe?" Tony says, "I believe passion, discipline, courage and honor are the fundamentals of life. I, too, have been lucky, but win or lose, I've always tried to be a true sportsman, both on and off the playing fields." God is greatly moved by Tony's sincere eloquence, and he offers him a seat to his right.

Finally, God turns to Brett Favre: "And you, Brett, what do you believe?" Brett replies, "I believe you're in my seat."
