John Fleming said "What I would like to do is congratulate the World Champion New Orleans Saints on winning the franchise's first Super Bowl. The New Orleans Saints beat the Indianapolis Colts by a score of 31-17 on February 7, 2010. The Saints are an inspiration to all of us on and off the field. After not playing a single game in their home stadium in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina, the Saints came back in 2006 to a revitalized Superdome and carried that momentum to rebuilding a city and its people. The team donated money to charities and their time into renewing their city. The adversity they overcame is enormous, but the hope they gave was even greater. I certainly congratulate the Saints on winning Super Bowl XLIV, and I also welcome everyone in America to the Who Dat Nation." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
