Bless You Boys! Here’s one for you kids to sing on the way to the Dome next Sunday!
To the tune of Ballroom Blitz by Sweet
(Original lyrics – Chinn/Chapman)
Are you ready, Sean?
Aha.
Reggie?
Yeah!
Drew?
OK.
Alright, fellas…
LET’S GEAUX!
Oh, I been feeling so good,
Livin’ with the things you do to me,
Aha.
My dreams are getting so strange,
I see the Black and Gold in Mi-am-eee!
Mmm-hmm.
Oh, I see a man in Gold and Black
As a matter of fact, his eyes are as gold as the sun.
And Loki on the sideline is jumping on the white line
Because he’s dressed like a Saintsation!
Oh, yeah,
It was like lightning,
And the defense was frightening
And the offense was moving,
And the fans started grooving
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
And the man in Gold and Black
Said everyone attack and it turned into a N’awlins blitz!
And Loki on the sideline said
Brother, here’s a guideline, it’ll turn into a N’awlins blitz!
N’awlins blitz!
N’awlins blitz!
N’awlins blitz!
N’awlins blitz!
Oh, They’re reaching out for footballs,
Makin’ touchdown’s all they ever do.
Oh, they roughly run you over,
When they are done there’s nothing left of you.
Aha.
Now the man in Gold and Black
Is ready to crack as he raises the roof of the Dome.
And Loki on the sideline is giving you the high sign
He is sending the other team home!
Oh yeah, it was electric,
So frightfully hectic,
And the fans started roaring,
‘Cause the offense was scoring!
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
And the man in Gold and Black
Said everyone attack and it turned into a N’awlins blitz!
And Loki on the sideline said
Brother, here’s a guideline, it’ll turn into a N’awlins blitz!
N’awlins blitz!
Oh, yeah!
It was like lightning,
And the defense was frightening
And the offense was moving,
And they all started grooving
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
And the man in Gold and Black
Said everyone attack and it turned into a N’awlins blitz!
And Loki on the sideline said
Brother, here’s a guideline, it’ll turn into a N’awlins blitz!
N’awlins blitz!
N’awlins blitz!
N’awlins blitz!
N’awlins blitz!
It’s it’s a N’awlins blitz!
It’s it’s a N’awlins blitz!
It’s it’s a N’awlins blitz!
YEAH! It’s a N’awlins blitz,

Gee… Thanks…
Send measurements asap STOP Team of Asian seamstresses waiting STOP You know me, Loki STOP This will never STOP
LOVE THIS!!! :) Hee hee!
help!!!
this is tough.. i can’t stand the Cowgirls. i loathe Brett Farve … decisions.. decisions….
:(
ok. i give. i’m going with the Vikings.
i can’t believe i’m rooting for brett farve.
i’ve now reached an all time low.
Well, it’s all revenge from here. If we play Dallas, (which we won’t) we could hand them a heaping helping of Best Served Cold. If it’s Minnesota, Darren Sharper has a side dish of BSC for them. And then in the Superbowl, wouldn’t it be nice watching Drew pick apart the Chargers, who decided Phillip Rivers was the future…?
I can’t wait!
…pretty shitty little touchdown at the very end there.. don’t cha think?
classless.
Not at all. The fans pay to see sixty minutes of football, not 56 minutes and 4 minutes of chickenshit, kneel-down assclownery. I gotta agree with J Johnson on this one; if you don’t want to get scored on, play better.
oh pulezz! the game was over!
i can’t see where this was necessary.
..of course this it the same reason i don’t boo the other team when they first come on the field.
Hey, I didn’t say it was necessary, just that it was football! lolz!
Seeing as I HATE Dallas w/a purple (green & gold) passion – I did a happy dance after watching the unnecessary but fait accompli last score by ye olde Vikings. If we didn’t get the chance to fubar their Miami plans, I’m glad someone did! :) We’ll knock some devastating holes in the Viking warship and send Favre to Football Valhalla for good.
