NFL Fan

This past weekend was "Wildcard Weekend". For those of you who aren't die-hard NFL watchers it is the first of the playoffs toward the Superbowl. I am a HUUUUUUGE New Orleans Saints fan, not because they won last year's Superbowl but because, until half of their starters got injured, they were a team-team; meaning they all worked together and there wasn't ONE player who "made" the wins. I am also an admirer of Peyton Manning and Michael Vick. Manning is a "true champion" as hubby coined, I cannot phrase it better. He is an awesome ball player, humble, and funny as hell (remember the commercials during 2009 holiday season----the Christmas gifts......LMAO). Also, Vick has made some HUGE mistakes in his life but he has shown that he knows it and is working his ass off to prove that the league should never regret letting him play again. This man can throw amazing passes and, when under the gun, will run the ball as well as any RB. Unfortunately I now think I am a jinx, and if I were a NFL player this is the letter I would draft to me, the NFL fan:

Dear Ms Hirschi,

Although we love to hear about our fans and the dedication that they have for watching and cheering on the teams, we would rather you not be a fan of ours anymore. We believe that you may be bad luck, a jinx perhaps.

During the first playoff weekend we were slated to play teams who could not, and should never have, held a candle to our playing abilities. We played tough football during this game, the score was close from beginning to end---which makes for a good game to watch; normally. When the opposing team took the lead and kept the lead we knew it was from nothing more than you, Ms Hirschi, the jinxed fan who yells obscenities at the television screen, wears fan t-shirts, drinks from team cups, and prays for a miracle win.

We should never have lost this game, it wasn't statistically feasible. YOU BLEW IT FOR US! It is without apology that we ask you to NEVER cheer for us again. Please choose another team to cheer for; the Seahawks, Packers, or the Jets perhaps.

Farewell,
The New Orleans Saints........or.........
Peyton Manning.........or.........
Michael Vick..........
