Mmmmm-MMM! Here, try this. It’s delicious! No, it’s okay: there’s plenty for everyone. This feast will last all day, my friends.
(By the way, everyone I watched the game with was rooting for the Saints, and we were all actually disappointed at the Colts’ red zone failure with 55 seconds left. We were really savoring the desperation.)

MANNING WAS BLOCKED IN THE BACK ON THE RETURN ON THIS PLAY!
HE OBVIOUSLY WOULD HAVE THE TACKLE!
Because, you know, Manning excels in physical conditioning.
Hey Mo,
You mean they wouldn’t take dollars to a bucket of goat shit?
Tracy Porter may date my daughter, sleep with her, and never call her again. I wouldn’t hold it against him. Hypothetical girl probably had it coming. This pick 6 alone was borderline orgasmic, but the fact that it was the same man who got Favre? *Takes a long slow drag off an imaginary cigarette* Mmmm. Sheer perfection.
I’ll bet dollars to donuts (Fat Humps preferred currency) that if the 2pt conversion was Pey-pey to Clark, they would extolling the greatness of the officials for recognizing that the play was dead once the receiver hit ground and the ball broke the effing plane; it doesn’t matter after that.
Tracy Porter is a SINNER, baby! Fuck Yeahhhhhh, that’s how you act like a trained killer boys!
Grimey loves shrimp cocktail.
(I do agree with him. I thought the receiver was juggling the ball and never really got clear possession. Of course, I was quite drunk at the time.)
That man does not have to buy a beer in 49 and a half states
Now watch the Raiders pay Tracy Porter a bazillion bucks
I agree with Leigh. I was overjoyed to see a former Hoosier making a big play like that. It was even sweeter that it was against Manning and the Colts.
@ Grimey – 1,000 words right here – http://bit.ly/9PKa3s
1)Possession? Check
2) Breaking the plane of the end zone? Check
3) Down by contact? Check and mate (although we could have stopped at 2). 2 points.
Stu: That’s not what the “going to the ground” rules say.
I’d like to continue this conversation, but I think people are starting to think I’m gay for Steak & Shake, so I’ll drop it.
Grimey: Well, that to me was clearly a blown call. Once you have possession and you’re touched (or in this case, the ball crosses the goal line), by rule the play is dead.
It’s pretty funny to see Colts fans complaining about how the calls didn’t go their way. I recall many shady calls in the past going the Colts way. Anyone remember the 2005 playoff between the Colts and Steelers? The Polamalu “interception” in the 4th quarter? The refs tried to help the Colts win.. and they still lost!!
If Manning never goes to another Super Bowl, his legacy will be similar to a certain land baron from Mississippi, who has been known to have fun out there from time to time, if you get my drift… One Super Bowl win, one Super Bowl loss, and a whole lot of playoff choke jobs. Greatest quarterback ever?? Not even close.
All this means is that the Tuck Rule needs to be abolished!!!
Wait, what are we talking about again???
/Colts fans need not become the next coming of Seahawk fans
It was a dumb throw and a great pick. No two ways about it.
The 2-pt. conversion, which honestly mattered fuck-all, is being bitched about by morons. The refs made the right call according to the rules; the fact that calls like that were blown all season is something to fix next year.
Stu: Imagine a receiver catching a ball during a regular season game in the middle of the field, falling to the ground and being touched down. And then the ball flies up out of his hands, and into the hands of a defender. You could say that since the receiver had possession and was down by contact, that the play should be dead. But that’s not the “going to the ground” rules, and instead the defense gets the ball.
And by the way, this did happen.
Grimey if you want to call that a blown call lets call Collie’s 40+ yard catch in the next drive a fumble because he hit the ground and the ball came out.
Glorius, GLORIUS, and MOST GLORIUS.
Now if that pole-smoker Wayne hadn’t dropped that easy (and ultimately meaningless) TD in the last minute, I’d be on easy street this morning
/Tears up teaser tickets with the OVER at 51….FFFUUUUUUUUU
Receiver makes catch, establishes posession, crosses goal line and play is dead. THEN defender kicks the ball out of his hands. Sorry, but that’s not the same as the ground causing an incompletion.
The complaining is ridiculous. Imagine a receiver catching a ball during a regular season game in the middle of the field, falling to the ground and being touched down. And then a DB running in and kicking the ball out of his hands. I hope Colts fans would be consistent and say that should be an incomplete pass.
@Grimey: But I thought that once the ball is caught and the ball crosses the plane of the goal line, the play is over. Its a touchdown/conversion.
Tard she blows!
No way was that a catch. And if it’s not a catch, how can it be a touchdown?
While talking about a 2pt conversion.
Why aren’t any other news sites giving Rex Ryan credit for this win?
I actually agree that the overturned incomplete pass on the two-point conversion was a bad call. Nothing this year has pissed me off more than the full-retardedness of the “going to the ground” rules.
@StuScott: Especially annoying since IT WAS THE RIGHT CALL.
Jesus people, admit your team got beat.
Terry Porter wishes he had those kind of skeeeels.
what’s the status on power restoration at the Magary household? I need my MMQB breakdown, goddamnit!
Maybe now Ape won’t mess up his name any more!
Great game, great result, huge boner from this play.
Tracy Porter is to season-ending interceptions as Bernard Pollard is to season-ending knee injuries.
Britfarr? Picked off!
Fetushead? Picked off!
God…if he could only play one more game against the Patriots (either guy, actually – I’m rooting for Pollard to seek out Belicheck on the sidelines next year.
Guys, guys, if you saw the halftime show you know you’re doing the CSI thing all wrong. It goes:
Looks like that Saint
(Puts on sunglasses)
Made a heavenly play.
YAAAARKscreeeechARRGHHHcreeeeeakAHHHYEHHH
Take a look at the noon posting on Stampede Blue: Yes, the two-point conversation call was indeed a blown call
“In the end, it was not a major play that necessarily decided the outcome. It’s just another example of how all the breaks went the Saints way.”
Jesus. These people are worse than Ravens fans.
Polian wants to have interceptions outlawed next year.
If you need something carried into the end zone…
(Puts on sunglasses)
You should call a Porter.
YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
@ Leigh – Don’t forget ex-Purdue QB Drew Brees!
Thanks KSK readers/writers from an old Saints fan. Good luck to the rest of your historical losers (I’m thinking of you Lions and Browns fans), the winning IS sweeter for the pain of having followed bad teams for decades.
/somehow still alive
//dick joke
@ Nate-
Why do you bring up the coach of the Charlotte Bobcats?
//knows who you’re talking about, but Super Bowl XXX never happened.
Everyone at Indiana University is so proud of ex-Hoosier Tracy Porter!
He’s like a Larry Brown out there!
Porter points out which bevy of comely lasses he’s taking back to the team hotel.
/I call that one Bitey
The only disappointment is that no one had the chance to lay out Manning like they did to Warner a couple weeks ago.
@porky1 I’d throw Garrett Hartley in there too. That kid is clutch.
/anti-Kaeding’d
Got to love fivehead’s attempt to tackle too. I only wish Ron Borges knew something about football so he could enjoy that moment.

Between porter, breesus, and Sean payton’s king kong balls on that onside kick, we may have a 3-headed Meast.
This is just proof that Porter was inspired by Rex Ryan’s pep talk.
The only way that picture is any more perfect is if Tom Brady had thrown the pass…
and a monkey riding a lion had picked it off.
To hell with the WWF guy, Tracy Porter is the legend killer.
Looks like Peyton should have
(Puts on sunglasses)
not thrown that specific pass.
YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
/has a history of missing the point
I was hoping the Colts would score…if only for the joy of watching the last second drive die at midfield. But the pick 6 is even sweeter.
It’s kind of interesting everyone’a talking about that Garcon drop and not the surefire touchdown Wayne dropped in the red zone. But I too was disappointed they didn’t get it. I’d love to have seen the game come down to an onside kick.
But not as much as I’d like to see Drew’s face when Brittfar still loves the game too much to retire!
Looks like Porter is
(Puts on sunglasses)
taking it to the house.
YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
