Plenty of room on Saints bandwagon
There are plenty of reasons why I want the New Orleans Saints to defeat the Indianapolis Colts today in Super Bowl XLIV. For starters, my mom was born and raised in New Orleans, which has given me the good fortune to have spent considerable time in the Crescent City to visit relatives.

Beyond the personal side, I want the Saints to win for the same reasons they’ve become the nation’s favorite team. The devastating effects of Hurricane Katrina created a bond between the Saints and the people of New Orleans that has filtered through to other parts of the country. The Dallas Cowboys take pride in being known as “America’s Team,” a moniker that began with the team’s 1978 highlight film and is based on conceited self-promotio.
