Just released: the NFL 2010 Tennessee Titans schedule!  Any Titans fans planning on going to any games this year?  The drive to Nashville is only about 3 hours or less.  I haven’t had much opportunity to tailgate, but the experience seems like loads of fun.  I’m more of a big-screen-remote-control-beer-and-chips kinda guy.  Anybody have any good pregame rituals?

Saints Get Overtime Win

football goal postBrett Favre didn’t want to go out like that and I don’t think he was the only one that felt that way. You’ve got to give it up to Favre who stood in the pocket and took hit after hit for his team. It just wasn’t in the cards for the Minnesota Vikings though. The New Orleans Saints seemed to have the cards all along. They were playing at home and the 12th man really played a role yesterday.

Drew Brees deserves a lot of credit for being calm in the pocket and keeping his team composed, but the Saints defense was the deciding factor. They put a bruising on the Vikings yesterday and showed that they wanted it 110 percent.

It took longer than regulation, but the Saints pulled out a 31-28 win in overtime. They will face the Indianapolis Colts on Feb. 7 in the Super Bowl.
