Countdown to Kickoff: The Delirium Sets In

*In preparation for game day, we have avoided all Ed Norton movies due to his striking resemblance to that Manning boy whose name we refuse to utter.








*No Fleur-de-lis paraphernalia is to be worn until game day in the unlikely event that it loses its power over time. (A lesson learned the hard way after the NFC Championship debacle.)

*Will continue watching the following movies to the point of ad nauseam just in case Coach Payton needs us to phone in a Kyle Turley-esque half time speech: Rudy, Any Given Sunday, Invincible, Remember the Titans, Friday Night Lights, and We are Marshall. (Will also secretly watch Varsity Blues but too ashamed to admit it.)

*Currently practicing updates to the Benson Boogie. The remix, appropriately titled “The Chick Strut” shall be unveiled in the Dome on September 24th. Although, we may be tempted to bust it out on Thursday night if things go according to plan.

*Putting away all shirtless photos of Reggie Bush in an attempt to stay focused leading up to game day.

*Memorizing new roster of players and their numbers to avoid any embarrassing game day shout-outs.

*Trying to decide if pre-game “get hype” ritual should revolve around “I Believe,” “The Saints are Coming,” “When the Saints Go Marching In,” “The Way We Live: Saints Remix” or all of the above.

*Searching Craigslist for Matrix-like device that will wipe away all memories of shirtless photos of Reggie Bush which prove to be a continued distraction.

Putting up the shirtless pictures? Say it ain't so!

Ooh, thanks for reminding me. Haven't listened to "The Way We Live" remix yet this week.

Yes, yes...no shirtless Reggie is the highest sacrifice a Chick could make. But if it leads to a W, let's take it for the team!
