My page is the number two result for "'sacre bleu' meanings" on Google. So I should give the meaning for it. Swearing was once a sin, and in proper french the word "bleu" replaced "Dieu" altogether. My Blue! Sacred Blue! By Blue! Etc. Blue ended up being the color of the French monarchs, and it is their color in most endeavors (like soccer). So there you go.
