The Marino game?

Not exactly. I don't think officiating helps in a game you trail 48-0 at half-time.

Misery.

Yeah, because they had their hands in that final interception in the 4th.

That stinks.

I didn't care who won but the officials decided it too much.

Game over. Bullshit calls at the end but you can't fumble the ball as much as the Vikes and hope to win. Now we'll have to hear about how great it is that New Orleans is in the SB because of Katrina for the next two weeks.

Minnesota really has no one to blame except themselves. Game should have never gotten to OT.

Congrats to the Saints.

Two questionable calls at the end, but Minny made enough mistakes that they can only blame themselves.

I hope Peyton Manning puts 70 on New Orleans.

The NFL has wanted New Orleans in the Super Bowl for a long time now and they got their wish.

I will be openly rooting for Indy to run the score up and put as many points on the board as they possibly can.

I don't get why it was a horrible call. Could it have been called uncatchable, possibly, but Lieber clearly didn't turn back to the QB and look for the ball, and he clearly pushed the TE while the ball was in the air. As far as the catch afterwards, it was ruled that on the field, and I didn't see any clearcut proof that the ball wasn't caught. Brett Favre's boneheaded INT with 10 seconds left is what killed the Vikings, not some PI call that wouldn't have happened had he not made that throw.

I agree with the officiating in this game.

Totally horrible and this crew should be ashamed of themselves.

Did the Saints get the benefit of:
1) divine intervention
2) arbiter intervention
3) NFL executive intervention
4) no intervention at all

The Vikings got ripped off on that final drive. Now all you people will see a lousy Super Bowl. And no I am not a Vikings fan.
