It’s a Super Day to be a Saints Fan

With Super Bowl XLIV set to kick off in just a few hours, Saints fans can finally scratch their name off what has to be the most embarrassing list for a sports franchise to be on.

The Saints will be making their first Super Bowl appearance in franchise history, and the fans of New Orleans are finally getting to live out all Browns and Lions fans’ wet dreams.

Since the inaugural Super Bowl, which at the time was called the First AFL-NFL World Championship Game, there have only been 5 teams that have never made it to the Big Game. Well that list is going to get 1 team smaller when the Saints take the field tonight.

The Browns, Lions, Jaguars, and Texans are the last 4 teams remaining, but the Browns and Lions are by far the two franchises that have suffered the most since Super Bowl I in 1967. Both of these teams have been in the league since before the Super Bowl was originated, so it is difficult to keep the Jaguars and the Texans in the same miserable conversation. But who knows, the Cardinals and Saints will make it two years in a row that a first timer will get to play in the Big Game, so maybe next year will be the lucky year for one of these other lonely franchises.

So for all of you ‘Who Dat’ fans out there, please take advantage of the awesomeness that comes with going to the Super Bowl. There are Browns and Lions fans out there that have no idea what this day feels like, so please make sure you appreciate the fact that there are some people that would literally give a left nut to go to the Super Bowl.
