Once again, LegalMist has dusted off her crystal ball and will now predict the winner of this year's Super Bowl.
(Sadly, my Cardinals aren't in it this year - but my Aunt Lou's Saints are, so you'd better believe LegalMist is tuning in to the Super Bowl this afternoon/evening! I wouldn't miss it for the world.)
My Aunt Lou (see here for more about my "Aunt Lou") said that when New Orleans won the playoff game that got them to the king of all bowl games, New Orleans felt like Mardi Gras had come early. Everyone was celebrating, everyone was smiling ... the whole city just felt "alive."
New Orleans needs this. It still has not fully recovered from Hurricane Katrina. It will always be a vibrant, beautiful city, with much history and life to it, but Katrina definitely robbed some of its "joie de vivre." The Saints playing in the Super Bowl has restored some of that. And because they need it so badly, want it so badly, and are so happy to be competing in this most fantastic king of bowl games, surely the Saints will have their miracle and will win.
All of that is a very long intro for a very short conclusion - my prediction:
Saints, 31
Colts, 24
Happy Super Bowl Sunday, everyone!

interesting prediction. hope you're right.
i was rooting for the colts, until i remembered they traded my client. now i want them to lose.
Pretty close! Congratulations!
I didn't even know there was a football team named the Cardinals.
But man, you were really close on the score!
Whoa...did someone say Oracle?
Your guess was better than mine. I thought the final score would be closer.
I could try predicting it, especially as it's after the event, but it's not a game I've ever followed :)
You did pretty darn good!!! I'm impressed. When will you be joining Fox Sports?
