Does Drew Brees Have A Speech Impediment?

Super Bowl fever is upon us (make sure you to get vaccinated. We wouldn’t want to spread it to the children). This year’s game, if you haven’t been paying attention, features the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints. And, at the risk of angering my Peyton Manning-loving boss, I’ve thrown all my support towards the Saints.

The Saints are led by their quarterback, Drew Brees, who has taken on a pretty great nickname, Bresus. But even with the obvious Christian undertones of the nickname, the New Orleans Jewish community has embraced it, and even Jewified it. They are, you guessed it, Jews (Drews) for Bresus.

Thanks to The Sporting Blog, I found a pretty amazing version of Dayeinu, from the Kosher Cajun New York Deli & Grocery in Metairie, LA. If you’re a Saints fan, make sure to sing this at your seder this year:

He has provided all of these things and for this we are grateful.
