Not that I'm really into American Football and will probably never sit down to a game but what a great story this is. After Hurricane Katrina the people of New Orleans used their stadium as a refuge and now they have won the Super Bowl. Just seeing the way the Americans get into this is fantastic. Makes you want to eat donuts and hot dogs and wash it all down with a big glass of beef fat. ;)

The game itself was actually really good. Was watching it at a friends house (hosted every year), and despite the first quarter being dull, once the Saints got into their stride it was great.

Brees' passing was great, and everyone was on the edge of their seats when the Saints won a replay challange for a 2-point conversion (or I was anyway) and the intercept sealed it.

Very Happy for New Orleans

Didn't see the game, would've like to have mind. I'd like to see a game live in the US, been told it's pretty good atmosphere?

The onside kick to start the second half was so ballsy!

Thought the Colts would win but was going for the Saints :)

Glad to see Saints win. It was ballsy and they deserved the win. Have found hard to watch a whole game live but enjoy the matches on TenHD with all the shit cut out.

I heard Ten's telecast was HORRIBLE. Haven't seen it, but I can imagine it would. I don't think theyve ever done much right.

I missed the Onside at the start of the 2nd, when i turned around for the ensuing melee i was seriously surprised
