If you are a conspiracy therorist or just plain paranoid like myself you have to wonder if the Indy-Saints Super Bowl is just too attractive to the league.
On one side you have the "feel good" story of the year in the Saints remarkable season. Giving the people of New Orleans something to feel good about after all they have been through.
On the other side you have Peyton who grew up in New Orleans and who's father played for the Saints. And the obvious "finally getting to the big game" story.
This is too big of a storyline for the league to resist. And these are the teams the rest of the country will be rooting for too.
Coupled with Polians constant whining & haranging of the league. This is a considerable obstacle for the Pats to overcome.
Don't laugh. They change the friggin rules for this team! Those calls in the Pittsburgh game would have put the Colts in the Super Bowl LAST season had they had a real kicker.
Don't be surprised if there are some "homefield" type calls in this game.
