Super Bowl XLIV: President Obama Favors the Saints to Win

The NFL Super Bowl XLIV is literally only a few days away now and as you can imagine, American footballs fans everywhere are gearing themselves up for Sunday’s game, which is against the New Orleans Saints and the Indianapolis Colts.

And it appears that there is one very special person, who is rooting for the Saints to win on Sunday. According to a report at washingtonpost.com, President Barack Obama has recently admitted that although he likes both teams, he is rooting for the Saints.

President Barack Obama says that the reason he is favoring the Saints to win over the Colts on Sunday, is because of what the team actually means to New Orleans and because of all the troubles the city has had after Hurricane Katrina.

Both the Colts and the Saints have got great quarterbacks on their teams – the Colts have Peyton Manning, who won the Most Valuable Player award for 2009, while the Saints have Drew Brees, who may well have had a better year.
