Queen Latifah singing “America the Beautiful.” I thought we were beyond the concept of royalty in this country.

Idea for a sequel to the 70’s classic, “Black Sunday” – the Goodyear, MetLife and Direct TV blimps all crash into each other.

Peyton Manning still sounds to us like the name of a car dealership.

Saints – sentimental favorites. They need a little more than sentiment after the first quarter.

A Simpsons commercial – without a Homer “Doh!”???

Bud Light commercial: a house made out of beer cans. Don’t drink and build. Oh, and get a designated drywaller.

“Super Vision” on instant slo-mo replays. If it’s really Super Vision, shouldn’t we be able to see the players’ underwear?

We’re noticing a lot of sub-par haircuts in the stands. People really need to get to a Kennedy’s All-American Barber Club ASAP.

Phil Simms has “Phil-osophy.” He’s right on the bookshelves between Descartes and Vince Lombardi.

Jay Leno helping David Letterman advertise his show? Does this mean Peyton will start passing directly to the Saints?

Another Bud Light commercial: the “Lost” cast prefers some brewskis to actually getting off the island. They have a point. The show might make more sense if you’re drunk.

Dodge Charger – A Man’s Last Stand? Funny commercial, but couldn’t we go for a Lamborghini?

Okay, the Will. i. am remix of The Who’s “My Generation” and accompanying visuals are awesome.

The Saints stop the Colts and get another field goal before the half. Sentiment is getting more powerful.

“The Who” halftime show. Okay, the boys are old, but they still rock.

Oh, the Colts scored. Hey, wait. This is actually a good game.

The Saints score. They get the 2 point conversion on a challenge. This is a REALLY good game.

Re the earlier comment about Peyton passing directly to the Saints. Oops. It just happened. 31-17 with 3 minutes left.

Two minute warning. If only we had one of those in real life…

The Saints win!
