These commentators are getting on my nerves. Very condescending and not very knowledgeable. Comments like 'I didn't expect the stadium to be so modern' and 'the crowd must be wondering what all these stoppages are for'.

Nope. But why vent your displeasure on here? Can't you just throw stones at them or something

It was a great game, far better than last year's (although the weather probably helped).

The pre game "New Orleans Themed Tailgate Party" was a complete waste of time. It was just your standard beer and burger vans plus one van selling some not very appealing looking mush that was meant to be gumbo.

It was really just 20,000 Brits practising their queueing techniques. The line for the merchandise tent was incredible, so I went up to the bouncer on the exit door and he let me sneak a look into the tent. All I could see inside was more queueing. I asked the bouncer if it was worth going in, he said "no mate", so I wandered off into the stadium.

As for the game, the Chargers had their chances to win but blew it by dropping one certain touchdown pass and giving away too many penalties. They even had time for one last "Hail Mary" pass at the end that would have won the game (thanks to Drew Brees cocking up the "Safety Drill" by running straight out the back of the end zone rather than heading for the corner and eating up a few more seconds).

The Saints looked quite good but clearly missed Reggie Bush. He provides that element of unpredictability that a team needs. I can't see them making much progress if they make the playoffs (however, I thought that about the Giants after last year's game).
