Colts Beat Saints, Newspaper Reports - AOL News

(Feb. 8) -- Colts win the Super Bowl!

In the rare case that you missed Sunday's game, woke up on Monday and checked the front page of the Virginian-Pilot's sports section to find out which team came out victorious, you would have learned that the Indianapolis Colts defeated the underdog New Orleans Saints by a score of 31-17.

Actually, Norfolk's a decent-sized town (1.5 million+ metro). I lived there for 20 years and the Pilot is the top regional paper. It's also run by idiots, so it's no surprise to see this.

Not to change the subject but have you ever noticed that every time Manning loses he keeps his helmet on until he's well off the field (see OP attached picture) but when he wins it comes off right away. Just a little observation I made.

Just like Tomlinson...

Didn't the Globe web site say at some point that Coakley had won? This kind of error isn't exactly unusual.
