In an interview for Politico, Brown was asked about his pick. He said: "I just tend to follow them more and I've just never been a real Saints fan. It's nothing more than that."
He also commented on his now-infamous "Brownie" nickname, which then-President George W. Bush gave to him: "The president wasn't exactly, let's say, a genius when it comes to nicknames."
My comment: "Brownie" is 2 for 2 in my book depsite his inadequacy as a FEMA Director (and there is a lot of blame to go around too for Louisianna Democrats for Katrina). "Brownie":
1) Predicted the Colts to win. I have the Colts 38-35 over the Saints and in my playoff predictions and I am now 7-3 and after correctly picking the two Superbowl participants. The game will be close but I give the slight edge to the Colts due to Peyton Manning.
2) He has stated the Bush isn't a genius with nicknames. I concur but for those who know my politics and political assessments I think I would go a bit further than that to apply the non-genius aspects to all components of GW Bush's skill sets. "Dumb-ass" might have been a better nickname for this pomeranian pony patronage patsy.
