Our household is Chicago Bears territory but in the case, which the Bears did not make the Superbowl this year, we are proudly cheering on the New Orlean Saints! Yes, we live seconds away from Indiana and should be cheering on the colts but we are not. We are cheering on the Saints not only because they are the under dogs this Superbowl but mainly because I went to high school with the Saint's running back, Pierre Thomas # 23. He was an amazing talented athlete in high school, who went on to play college football for U of I. Now he is in the NFL. It is so unbelievable to watch your classmate play professional football and make it all the way to the Superbowl. Facebook statuses are covered with "Go Saints - #23"...our town and high school classmates are super excited for today!
