re: What Did You Do When Porter Intercepted Manning?

I'm so conditioned...sometimes can't take it, get stressed with the coin toss, reruns make me nervous, so when I see something I don't like, turn it off! Happens a lot, especially in a big game.

In Jan 04 while driving to work, heard on the radio Nick Saban was now the highest paid coach. Realized LSU actually won. Would always wear my Saints jacket to work and folks asked, Why? Told them every time I wore it, LSU won...told me to keep wearing it.

Flash forward Feb 2010...all my friends and family knew...are you going to watch? Didn't watch much of the Vikes game, but my son in law INSISTED, invited us to watch the 'big screen'.

Actually watched the ENTIRE first half...everyone was waiting to see when I would leave. Well it happened. Second half on side kick and score...FINE! But then Manning marches right back down the field to take the lead. I wasn't going to watch that *!%# beat us! I left.

A while later my phone goes crazy, text messages, ringing...from all over the country. You would have thought the Saints won the Super Bowl. My cousin in Kentucky was one of the callers, Turn it on now...the Saints just intercepted for a TD, they're going to win. Turned it on just in time to see the replay.
