In honesty, though, it's gonna be really good. I even have friends who are fans of other teams and they have said that they don't give an F about their own teams, they just wanna watch the Pats/Colts game.

Oh yeah, while the hype is definitely a bit much; there's no denying how great the matchup is.

BTW, have I mentioned how much I hate the Pats?

I've been trying my best to not read articles or check ESPN too much for it. I don't want to get all tingly in my no-no spot. Whoops. Too late.

BTW: have I told you how sweet it would be if I met Manning and just punched him in his fat forehead?

Tommy might be the new spokesman/model for CK underwears.

[LaDude]

If the 49ers keep it up, the Pats will have a top 3 draft pick next season! Maybe even the #1 overall pick! Could you imagine.....even after "spygate" getting a top 3 pick!

You were wrong when you said the Colts would beat the Pats...

[SoRight24]

The Bills are leading with 5 minutes left, and then they put in Jim Kelly who chokes it all away.

Pats win.

[rickyh24]

It is the Bills but it still is crazy. Brady has almost 300 yards already.

[rickyh24]

the record for td's in a game is 5, you know Randy and Brady want to break that now..

Seriously though. Just because she's been handed a microphone to stand on the side line, because she doesn't know shit about the sport doesn't mean she has a right to give my future husband the "fuck me" look. Bitch, I've had my eye on him for almost a decade, take a number at the END OF THE LINE!!!:mad :mad :mad

THat sucks, but I have Tommy and Randy in my work league (which everyone laughed at me about) and I'm pretty damn happy right about now. I can almost smell that 100 bucks.

Yeah did not help his TE is Watson I thought i was good since his QB Payton only got him one point lol

[TempHelpNeeded]

Watson is dirty (good skills) and quite religious.

[thebestauntie]

A co-worker just sent this to me, it's pretty funny:

In order to address the complaints and hurt feelings of the rest of the NFL, the commissioner has adopted 10 new "Special Rules" for all New England Patriots games. They take effect immediately, and are as follows:

Special Rules for the Patriots:

1.) In the course of an NFL game, if the Patriots go up by more than 31 points, they are not allowed to play offense until the opposing team draws to within one score. (Pats will kick-off after an opposing team's touchdown or FG).

Once the team is within one score, the Pats offense may play, but Tom Brady may not, unless:
*The Pats play with 8 players (including Tom), or the Pats play with 9 players, but 1 player for The Patriots is chosen by the opposing team from the stands. No Patriots linebacker is allowed to play offense, unless that LB is inserted at quarterback. However, MIKE VRABEL cannot be quarterback.

2.) If an opposing player states "It's like were playing 7-on-5s" (7 offense, 5 defense during practice), such as indicated by Justin Smith, DE, Cincinnati Bengals 10/1/07, the Patriots must take a time out and serve ice cold lemonade or hot tea (weather dependent) to the opposing team. Scones are optional.

3.) Once the 31 pt rule is in effect, Patriots may challenge any play, but the opposing team gets veto power over the referee.

4.) Once the Pats offense is allowed back onto the field (7 pts), for any forward pass the Pats QB must point to the receiver and call out his number BEFORE passing. If Tom Brady is quarterbacking at the time, he must do that, plus turn the opposing team's water cooler into wine BEFORE passing.

5.) Belichick must diagram any Patriots play to the opposing defense and ensure they understand exactly how to disrupt the play. This all must be done within the play clock. If this process is not complete prior to the play clock expiring, the Patriots will be assessed a delay of game and double unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.

6.) Randy Moss must play with 10lb ankle weights on each ankle. An additional pound will be added for each TD this season.

7.) Wes Welker is not allowed to have "that crazy look" in his eyes. 10 yd, "crazy eyes" penalty assessed.

8.) Tom Brady must immediately stop dating supermodels as he will not be allowed to date anyone that is more attractive then the least attractive significant other of an opposing team member (including coaches). He also must start doing commercials for every product imaginable, especially ones where he chants "cut that meat!", or refers to himself "as a 6'5" quarterback with a laser-rocket arm"

9.) Bill Belichick is not allowed to be within 100 yds of any infant, for fear that his evil super-genius powers would assimilate such a defenseless creature into the Patriots System. We have already seen this effect on an inordinate amount of chipmunks, squirrels, and 'possum that commit suicide while crossing Rte 1 to reach Gillette Stadium.

10.) Patriots must respect all opposing players’ feelings and apologize for every first down. Touchdowns must be followed by a written apology and a fruit basket presented with a hug.

San Francisco’s loss to Carolina on Sunday means that if the 2008 NFL Draft was held today, the New England Patriots would hold the second pick.

San Francisco traded their fourth-round selection (110th overall, used to select John Bowie) and their first-round selection in the 2008 NFL Draft to New England for their last first-round selection (28th overall, used to select Joe Staley).

God asks Peyton Manning first: "What do you believe?"

Peyton thinks long and hard, looks God in the eye, and says,

"I believe in hard work, and in staying true to family and friends. I believe in giving. I was lucky, but I always tried to do right by my fans."

God can't help but see the essential goodness of Manning, and offers him a seat to his left.

Then God turns to Tony Romo and says, "What do you believe?"

Tony says, "I believe passion, discipline, courage and honor are the fundamentals of life. I, too, have been lucky, but win or lose, I've always tried to be a true sportsman, both on and off the playing fields."

God is greatly moved by Tony's sincere eloquence, and he offers him a seat to his right.

Finally, God turns to Tom Brady: "And you, Tom, what do you believe?"

Tom replies, "I believe you're in my seat."

-David is in the 5th grade. Yesterday morning when the teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came up; fireman, policeman, salesman, etc. The teacher noticed that little David was

being uncharacteristically quiet and so she asked him about his father.

"My father's an exotic dancer in a gay bar and takes off all his clothes in front of other men. Sometimes, if the offer's really good, he'll go out to the alley with some guy and do it with him for money."
The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly set the other children to work on some coloring, and took little David aside to ask him, "Is that really true about your father?" "No," said David, "He plays for the Miami Dolphins, but I was too embarrassed to say that in front of the other kids."

Inside sources say Colvin mentioned before his injury that the Pats have talked about putting up 70 against the Jets. So much for taking it one week at a time. Of course the snow might put a damper on those plans.

All Thursday and Saturday games are under contract with the NFL Network. Some local networks will pick it up, but its a hit or miss.

[junior94]

I was thinking, already the Pats have the longest winning streak in NFL history, right? That stretch a few seasons ago where they won like 22 straight games or something (including playoffs), but I realize because it was over 2 partial seasons, that it wouldn't match to what they're now likely to accomplish, the official "perfect season" with doing it from start to finish.

But I'm assuming that 2 season stretch gave them the longest streak ever?

[Lcsulla]

Most people won't be able to root against the Pats .... I mean see the Pats make history by going undefeated in the regular season.

Really? I can't think of anything better than them losing in heartbreaking fashion in the playoffs! I know many people who hate the Patriots and are inching for them to lose.

[DMB0715]

I love the Patriots, but I can't imagine how much it's going to suck if they beat the Giants and lose in the playoffs. And I'm moderatley positive that most NFL fans hate the Patriots and want them to lose...badly.

What a great game. The Giants sure made them work for it, which is the way it should have been

[junior94]

For as amazing an impact as he's had in his pro career, did Tom Brady truly pretty much come out of nowhere? I mean did he do anything of real notoriety wherever he played his college ball? And which round was he even drafted in?

he was the back up QB on his High School team. Which was 0-6 at one point or something like that.

[thestand]

They made sure to point out that in high school he was on an 0-8 team, and he was the backup QB. :lol

[junior94]

He was a backup in college for a while too, and was drafted in the round 20 something.

Damn, and here I thought Brian Westbrook was an incredibly lucky pick for us in like the 7th round I think he was, considering how good of a back he's turned out to be... gotta be like triple that for Brady.

But about him even being the backup in high school and college, wasn't that one of the ironic things about Michael Jordan, that he was cut from his high school basketball team?

i typed that wrong. It was an earlier round. I just deleted that post.


yeah that is true about Mike. he was cut in high school. crazy.

[thestand]

He was drafted in the 6th round in the 2000 NFL draft. He was drafted in the 18th round in the 1995 MLB draft, by the Expos, as a catcher. Wikipedia is my friend.

[malarks26]

Congrats on the undefeated season.

[clayj41]

A little research...

1995-1998
Tom Brady attended the University of Michigan from 1995 through 1999. In the first three years (95-97) at Michigan he only played a limited role of backup quarterback (he began in 1995 as the seventh quarterback on the Michigan depth chart. However in 1998 (his senior season), Brady received the starting quarterback job for the Wolverines and played in and started all 13 games. His stats were a decent 214 completed passes on 350 attempts (school record) for 2636 yards, 15 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. The Wolverines under Brady finished with a 10 & 3 record and a berth in the CompUSA Florida Citrus Bowl game vs Arkansas. Michigan won the game 45 to 31. Brady completed 14 of 27 passes for 209 yards and a touchdown in the victory.

1999
Brady stayed in college an extra year so he could get more starting experience before applying for the 2000 NFL draft. Once again he started every game (12) for the Michigan Wolverines and at the end of the season was named the Bo Schembechler Award winner as Michigan's Most Valuable Player. Tom Brady led the team to a 10 & 2 record and improved statistically also with 214 completions on 341 attempts for 2586 yards, 20 touchdowns and five interceptions. Surprisingly enough, the last game of his college career was also his best game ever as a quarterback up to that point. In the FedEx Orange Bowl vs Alabama on January 1, 2000, Brady led the Wolverines back from a 14 point deposit to win the game by a score of 35 to 34 in overtime. In the dramatic game and overtime finish Tom completed 34 of 46 passes for 369 yards and four touchdowns.

In his five years at Michigan, Tom Brady played in a total of 31 games and started 25. His record as a starter was 20 & 5. He finished his career in the Michigan record books with 443 completions on 711 attempts for 5351 yards, 35 touchdowns and 19 interceptions.

[junior94]

He was drafted in the 6th round in the 2000 NFL draft. He was drafted in the 18th round in the 1995 MLB draft, by the Expos, as a catcher. Wikipedia is my friend.

You're kidding, Brady? He even could've been a pro baseball player? Where does it end with this guy :lol

[TempHelpNeeded]

Thank God Drew Bledsoe got knocked out!!!!!


fuckinggggg tits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[templeofdmb]

what was with Belichick's eye tonight?

[TempHelpNeeded]

what was with Belichick's eye tonight?


squeezed a major crap out before the game to ease the tention. :lol


i would, lord, i might need to AFTER the game.

[Tambou]

Maybe because Pats fans can't afford the NFL Network, and they pissed and moaned until the NFL gave in?

Yeah lets make the game out of reach for the
majority of the fans! BTW it's not that they can't afford it many cable companies do not carry it,


Hurray for the underdogs? That's BS the Red Sox have been the underdogs for almost 100 years and everyone hated them. They won a few World Series now people really hate them.

Whatever.

[thehoss]

congrats to the pats. unbelievable. id love to see a rematch of tonight in the superbowl, but i think dallas would be a better match-up

[TempHelpNeeded]

Maybe because Pats fans can't afford the NFL Network, and they pissed and moaned until the NFL gave in?


it's up to the cable companies to decide that, not if we can afford it.


AND the game was already set to be broadcasted on our local channel 5 (ABC) before the season even got under way. so no matter what we were going to see it. this was for the whole country!

[deadendstreet]

Congrats to the Pats. As a Dolphin fan, I'm glad someone else went undefeated. I'm tired of hearing about the 72 team when the current one sucks.

[deadendstreet]

Let me ease your mind. You are correct, most of America hate the Patriots.

:thumbsup...I didn't mind them winning tonight, but generally, I hate them. That said, they sure have cocky players. I remember in 2001 and 2003 when they let their playing do the talking. All of sudden, they talking as much trash as T.O. Just play the game.

[TempHelpNeeded]

honestly, when do they talk trash? link me to one soundbyte where they talk trash. (other than pittsburgh when smith opened himself and his team up for comments)


i find this the worst negative thing about the patriots. each week is a press conference and all they say is how good the other team was and how they impressed them. i could credit for people saying harrison can be classless, but that's an old story. wilfork i was very dissapointed with, but who else? what else?

[chr35919]

hell fucking yeah.

[chr35919]

Maybe because Pats fans can't afford the NFL Network, and they pissed and moaned until the NFL gave in?or maybe it was the most historic game in recent history? mmmk

[TempHelpNeeded]

the thing is new england didn't even complain for the game. we had it simulcasted on channel 5 already! CBS and NBC just allowed us to watch it on three channels total.


i found NBC the most clear on the video and audio level.

[chr35919]

question: did gaffney not play today? and what was all the talk about how half there O-line wasn't playing??

[TempHelpNeeded]

gaffney played but not one ball was thrown to him. he had a key block or two though.


kaczur and neal were "injured" (resting), so we had others in their place.

The only reason I can even attempt to enjoy this is due to the historical aspect of it all.

And also to shut Mercury Morris the hell up.

I think I'm rather indifferent about Brady passing Manning for the thrown TD's record, but I am kinda bummed about Randy Moss now owning the caught TD's one over Jerry Rice. The mid-80's to mid-90's 49ers were sort of my surrogate favorite team, Montana and Young being my 1st and 2nd fave quarterbacks of all time, and I'm a huge Jerry Rice fan, so I liked the idea of him owning that record. I'm especially hoping now Moss doesn't come up on Rice's career TDs record, but I've no idea where he is on that scale so far.

Rice did it in a strike shortened year. If that makes you feel better.

[chr35919]

outscored opponents by 315 points, an nfl record:eek

[junior94]

Oh that's right! I'd forgotten they mentioned that during the game, that Rice got his 21 (or 22, I forget now) in only 12 games, which holy moly... is just insane when you think about it :freak

[rickyh24]

:thumbsup yes it is.....

[junior94]

It kinda makes me laugh when I think about Brady passing Manning for this record, I mean because he's truly like Peyton's big brother that he'll just never fully surpass no matter what he does :p Like before last year, even all the times Manning had lost to him head to head, and had never won the big game, at least he could say hey baby, I've got the single season TD record (which had stood for, what, like 20 years?). And yea sure Indy finally won the Super Bowl last year, but still that's only one to Brady's 3 rings.

So I'm just wondernig of Manning's sitting back and thinking "Okay if somebody was gonna break the record from me... but did it have to be friggin HIM??" :lorraine

:lol

Jerry Rice
REC: 1,549
YDS: 22,895
AVG: 14.8
TDS: 197

Randy Moss
REC: 774
YDS: 12,193
AVG: 15.8
TDS: 124


imo, moss will not play anywhere near as long as rice did.

[thebestauntie]

Here's a question. Who gets MVP for the season, Moss or Brady?

[rickyh24]

Here's a question. Who gets MVP for the season, Moss or Brady?

Brady. He also threw to Welker over 100 times.

[rickyh24]

they could give a Co-MVP but that would be weird.

[VanHorneDog]

Yeah lets make the game out of reach for the
majority of the fans! BTW it's not that they can't afford it many cable companies do not carry it,


Hurray for the underdogs? That's BS the Red Sox have been the underdogs for almost 100 years and everyone hated them. They won a few World Series now people really hate them.

Whatever.

i actually rooted for the Red Sox in 04/05. i liked those teams. that said i hate how they have the huge salary like the yankees. but i dont hate the team, thats a byproduct of the stupid ass capless MLB.


oh and congradulations Patriots, ill admit ive rooted against you the whole year. but, im still impressed. 16-0 looks pretty fucking cool.

[VanHorneDog]

Here's a question. Who gets MVP for the season, Moss or Brady?

Brady, he has spread it around a little.

Plus if they make Moss the MVP i think i might stop watching football, that guy is still a useless sack of crap.

[bothedmbfan]

Brady. He also threw to Welker over 100 times.

You give it to the man who really deserves it. KUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.

[LaDude]

Awesome game. Very physical. Eli looked like Peyton for 3 quarters. I'm glad the Pats have a week off. They need it!

[dmbhoosier21]

Brady no question. Even though he is a pussy/douche (:D), this is long overdue.

[TempHelpNeeded]

Brady will get it. But the co-MVP thing isn't foreign. Manning and McNair shared it a few years back.

[thebestauntie]

Brady no question. Even though he is a pussy/douche (:D), this is long overdue.
You're a brat Mike! :p

[dowling25]

that was a cool game to watch last night. some of my friends that i was with were all rooting against the pats. i thought it was hilarious when moss caught that pass the second time. i was laughing.

[dmbhoosier21]

You're a brat Mike! :p

:monkey hehe, you know I can't talk about the Pats without some sort of jab.

[DMB0715]

So happy both records were broken on one 65 yard bomb.

[Dave G]

I thought it was hilarious when moss caught that pass the second time. i was laughing.

Me too, it was pretty amazing.
3rd and 10 and with Randy Moss just dropping a wide open bomb, Brady throws it up practicality in the same spot for the touchdown.I never saw that one coming (along with James Butler it seems) You just have to shake your head and smile and shit like that

[thebestauntie]

:monkey hehe, you know I can't talk about the Pats without some sort of jab.
I would expect no less from you! You'll be happy to know that I'll be rooting for the Colts tonight because I'd like to see the Browns get into the playoffs.

[dmbgodagirl41]

I <3'd the press conference last night with Randy Moss....when he was asked what the best part about the record was. And he said "making all you guys shut up!"

:D 16-0. Fuck you, Shula. Fuck you, Fat Forehead Manning. Fuck you, NFL. Fuck you, Mangina.

The End.

Considering BB's past decisions regarding the draft, they are going to draft down and stockpile picks.

[LaDude]

I would think so too. But I could see them drafting Laurinaitis, Rivers, or Connor in the first round. Especially if Seau and Bruschi retire after this season.

[dmbhoosier21]

It's a possibility, and it sounds to me like a good idea (although admittedly, I don't know enough about college players), but you never know with Belicheat.
And you can't argue with whatever he does, his draft strategy has worked in the past, so.....

[UNC41]

I can't imagine the Pats keep the pick. They were over the cap this year and are going to have to pay Moss or probably lose him and Stallworth.

question: I have a friend who is a colts fan and he talks about how excited he is thinking about the colts playing in the snow in Foxboro for the AFC championship game.

Is that the dumbest thing ever for a Colts fan to want, or am I just missing something?

[rickyh24]

apparently the Colts are built to play in the snow this year...or something like that

[groton]

Don't Cha know the colts added a Running game and there defense got tougher

[dmbgodagirl41]

That's what I don't get. The colts play 1/2 their games INDOORS. what the hell? How does that make them good in the snow? The last time they played NE in the playoffs in the snow, Manning threw more passes to Ty Law than he did people on his own team.

So the smack talk begins ....... :violent

Well, unlike the Pats the Colts have consistenly ran the ball througout the season. Unlike the Pats we have a quick young defense as oppsed to old and slow. Both, theoretically, would be an advantage in weather games.

But the Patriots are used to playing outdoors in all kinds of weather and the Colts are used to their comfy dome setting.

but you forget: manning is a huge pussy where if he can't have his perfect temperature in his perfect dome, he no likey and he cries. A lot. And throws picks. Which is fine, I just don't get why Indy fans are saying that Indy has "ALWAYS LOVED THE SNOW".

The point about the weather game and Indy is related Indy's ability to run the ball and that we have actually had a defense nowadays.

As far as Manning loving the snow, who the hell said that?

Defenses that play well in bad weather tend to be big, not tiny fast guys like the Colts....

And the Patriots have as much of a running game as the Colts do, just cause we chose not to use it early in the season doesnt mean its not there.

[LaDude]

After listening to what Belichick had to say today you would think the Pats are 14 point underdogs! :)

FOXBOROUGH – Patriots coach Bill Belichick held his Tuesday press conference at Gillette Stadium (noon) and opened with the following statement:

“As I said the other day on the conference call, it’s a privilege for the New England Patriots and our football team to be part of the AFC Conference championship. Obviously it’s a huge game and it’s a huge honor to be involved in the game. So much at stake. A lot of hard work and a lot of wins have gone into the season on both sides. I really feel like we’re playing the best team in the AFC, in San Diego, certainly in the second half of the year. They’re an outstanding football team in every phase of the game. They have great talent, great production in every phase of the game. Well coached. I think [coach] Norv [Turner] and [general manager] A.J. [Smith] have done a tremendous job putting this team together. They’re playing as well as you can play right now.

“I thought that in the second half of the year, Jacksonville and San Diego, statistically, had really dominated the league. That’s certainly true. San Diego scores a lot, they’re averaging almost 30 points a game, giving up 13, 12, whatever it is. Outstanding on special teams. Very experienced group of players, as well as some young guys in there. Great depth on both sides of the ball, in all areas – linemen, linebackers, tight ends, running backs, skill players, special teams. I think they matched up well with everybody they played. I think that’s been reflected in their record since Thanksgiving, which is really when you want to be playing your best football. I’d say they’re certainly doing that.

“So, tremendous football team. They have two outstanding playoff wins against two other good football teams. I know we’re going to have to be at our best on Sunday to be able to compete with them. They do a lot of things well. They’re outstanding, all the way across the board.”

[dmbmuskie]

Long range forcast is showing 15 degrees for the high on Sunday! I'm sure the Chargers will be looking forward to that! :)

Those are ideal conditions for the Pats to play in during the 2004 season, not now.

[chr35919]

Those are ideal conditions for the Pats to play in during the 2004 season, not now.huh? no snow/wind, just cold = good for pats, bad for chargers.

[dmbmuskie]

huh? no snow/wind, just cold = good for pats, bad for chargers.

It says windy right on the forecast. 22 and windy aren't the best conditions for the Pats. I'm not saying the Chargers are going to play good in the cold, but cold weather doesn't favor a team plays like the 2007 Pats.

[Ant#10]

She never said the Pats are an ideal team for that kind of weather...

But the Pats ARE better suited for it than San Diego is....

[dmbmuskie]

How?

They might be used to playing in the cold, but they are not better equipped to play in it.

When neither team is equipped that well to play in the cold, you take the side of hte team that is actually used to it, which would be New England.

Dude, they play 8 home games in San Diego. Which is like bright and sunnny, and 75 degrees year round. I don think they can emulate those cold conditions in San Diego somehow.

They are equipped for a cold weather game with thier running game though. But LT is not 100%, but they still have the best back up in the game with Turner.

Hopefully the pats can stop the run, and make Rivers/Volek beat them in the air

[jaking1185]

Before the playoffs I wouldn't have thought the Pats could do that, but they shut down the Jags pretty effectively. I have no doubt BB can game plan for just about anything.

With Gates + Chambers + Jackson i think the passing game of the Chargers can play in cold weather. All three can catch and run over the middle.

plus as an offense the RB have i think 2 fumbles the whole year and they where not lost.

This game is up to Rivers and if he can Keep the offense scoring and Brady off the field.

[dmbmuskie]

The Chargers have everything in place to beat the Pats, but it's up to the coaches to take advantage of the matchups. I don't know if Norv and his coaches can do that.

What is LT's status for the game?

[TempHelpNeeded]

This is a no brainer. (even with my Pats bias)


Pats win big. Colts were only team to show up the Patriots in the post season. They are out now. I honestly don't think the Chargers have what it takes. Same Pats D as last year, better Pats offense. Not to mention change of home field. (even though it played no part last year)

its not going to help their chances though, is what I was trying to say.

[rickyh24]

Brady is on the report every week, and Welker played the whole last game no problem.

The Chargers injuries are going to affect them a lot more.

[VanHorneDog]

Shawne Merrimen has a hit out on Brady, he will sack him or hit him after a play to knock him out of the game.

its not him, its the roids so you cant blame him.

I'm not bitter. The writing was on the wall for the Steelers during the 2nd half of the season.

Some of your thoughts about the Steelers wasn't really rational. For instance, i believe you said that the Steelers were better off with Willie Parker being injured? Or something to that Nature, about Willie Parker not being a good running back.

At least whatever the Patriots and their fans have done, it's all been towards adults (granted some of them act like children).

[dmbindedham]

I thought it was terrible to, BUT, do you think the same would've happened had it been a 13 yeaar old girl in a Colts uniform at Gilette? For some reason, I do.

[thebestauntie]

I cant even imagine how bad that little girl felt. That should have probably been the best moment of her life so far and it was ruined by assholes.

She will get what she is owed this week thankfully, I cant wait to see the ovation she gets.
I know I"ll be giving her a standing ovation in my apartment!

See I don't think so, not a kid. If it was an adult then yes, but not a kid at a national competition. Call me naive, but if I thought Pats fans would do that to a kid I'd renouce my fanship to the team and instantly become a fan of whatever team that kid was representing. I'm serious.

[dmbindedham]

If that were the case, I'm almost certain you'd be representing the Colts under this circumstance.

[rickyh24]

totally.

maybe, but I am willing to bet it wouldn't happen now.

[VanHorneDog]

Exactly. That has to be the most classless thing of all. It's downright disgusting. I'll take my cheaters and score run uppers over that any day! At least whatever the Patriots and their fans have done, it's all been towards adults (granted some of them act like children). It's just mind boggling how someone would think it'd be okay to boo a kid at a competition. Kudos to the Pats for stepping up like they did!

they didnt even Boo the Chargers Kid who won, and they were playing the chargers!!! (and losing might i add!) :lol

[rickyh24]

I guess you would.

[VanHorneDog]

I guess you would.

of course i would, we would free up Cromartie and Florence to cover the other recievers.

i mean Welker is good, but he is no Moss. Welker's success this season is directly proportional to Moss', no Moss and Welker is not as open.

HOnestly though, i think the only Corner who can cover Moss 1 on 1 would be Cromartie, he lacks the Verteran skill so he will get burned now, but Cromartie is the best athlete on the chargers and if not the best in the game one of the top 5. So, in a few years. :lol

Hey at least he wasn't trying to run over a cop this time.

[barefoot]

The Chargers are going to get her front row 50 yard line seats.

Sorry to burst your bubble LA, but there definitely would've been some Pats fans who would've done it. Not to pick on Pats fans though, if it was a girl wearing a Packers jersey at a Bears game or vice versa, there's always gonna be some assholes who boo. It's just the way it is.:shrug

But it wasn't that she was a kid at a game wearing the other teams shirt. She was a kid representing New England in the Pass Punt & Kick competition. There were kids from all over wearing other teams jersey's (that's what they do at this competition). That's why it bothers me. This is something that's done every year, and never before to my recollection, has a kid been booed before! That is just completely uncalled for and unnecessary. Don't boo the kid! That's just bad.

[chr35919]

they weren't booing the kid, they were booing the jersey :)

[thebestauntie]

they weren't booing the kid, they were booing the jersey :)
Come on, you think the girl felt that they were just booing the jersey? :shrug

[chr35919]

Come on, you think the girl felt that they were just booing the jersey? :shrugyeah, she's in 7th grade...not 1st.

[rickyh24]

yeah, she's in 7th grade...not 1st.

I'm sure it still made her feel like shit.

[thebestauntie]

yeah, she's in 7th grade...not 1st.
You think a young adolescent girl wouldn't feel hurt by thousands of people booing her? Are you kidding me!

[chr35919]

You think a young adolescent girl wouldn't feel hurt by thousands of people booing her? Are you kidding me!she laughed it off -- showing that she understood they were booing the pats.

i'm sure she wasn't happy about it, but i don't think she's crying at night over it.

besides, she's sitting in kraft's booth this weekend.

I was watching a recap of the Patriots' season, and they showed Bruschi explain to the media that the win over the Chargers (you know, after Spygate happened) was the most satisfying of his career. Then they cut to a clip of the team swarming Bilicheck after the victory.

So my question is: It was confirmed that Bilicheck cheated, right? And if that's true, why did Bruschi act like his coach had been falsely accused? I mean, cheating is cheating. It's not like the win vindicated him. Because, well, he was caught cheating. I know a lot of fans will say, "They're 16-0! They don't need to cheat to win!" And I understand that. He stopped doing whatever he was doing after being called out. But how does a coach reprimanded by the NFL for cheating win Coach of the Year?

I didn't follow it much when the news broke, but now I'm a little surprised that a cheating coach banded an entire team and fan base together. Again, I say this because he was busted for cheating.

If it was determined that Magglio Ordonez played with a corked bat for the first, say, quarter of the last season, I would be a bit hesitant to get behind him. And I love the Tigers.

I would like some thoughtful responses, if possible.

I would like some thoughtful responses, if possible.because everyone knows it was widespread. they cut the best coach in the game some slack.

Yeah, I just read that, I feel a little better now knowing that she took it in stride. I still think it's a pretty crappy thing to do though.

edit: And how do I go about getting a phone call from Andre Tippett? :)

[chr35919]

Yeah, I just read that, I feel a little better now knowing that she took it in stride. I still think it's a pretty crappy thing to do though.when i saw it live, i honestly read the look on her face as "oh boy, damn colts fans..haha" kinda look.

but you're right, it was uncalled for.

[dmbgodagirl41]

Girls take things much more personally at 12/13 than 6/7.
