YES!!! Go PATS!!

And hats off to the Giants, who played a helluva game to the end. The last 5 minutes was a nail-biter of epic proportion! I was out of breath by the time it ended! Wow!

Congratulations to a very fine team. I really thought the Giants were going to win this, but then Brady shows why he is this decade’s Joe Montana. That throw to Moss was something.

Maybe, a 20 years or so from now, people will be talking about some quarterback as the new Tom Brady!

Maybe he has changed, but I really dislike Randy Moss.

Of course, I am a Packer fan. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Forget the perfect season! The real question is how does this effect my fantasy football team? ;O)

Has a team ever gone 17-1 before?

This one was really sweet. Especially how Brady and Moss were able to get their records in such a meaningful way. Great game by the Giants.

Remember the 2001 Mariners? The won 116 games, tying a major-league record. They lost in the first round of the playoffs. Nobody remembers them.

Now, the 114-win 1998 Yankees are considered a great team. They won the whole thing (going 11-2 in the three rounds of the playoffs.)

The Patriots have won several games, including tonight by precarious margins. They look like they could hve trouble making it through the playoffs. If that’s the case, they will be remembered much the way the 2001 Mariners are.

That was some game. I thought the Giants had them. Hats off to the Patriots. But I’m a Cowboys fan.

The Pats have good talent. They are a good team. Would they have racked up a record like they have over the last few years without cheating? I doubt it. Like someone else said, it was like the Pats had someone in the opposing teams huddle. Huge advantage. Call it sour grapes, but an asterisk will always pop up in a lot of peoples minds whenever the Pats are mentioned. Just like Barry Bonds.

Definitely an outstanding achievement, and I know they are not satisfied with 16-0. They want to be 19-0. If they do it they will go down as the greatest team in NFL history.

Its a great time to be a Boston sports fan. Along with the Patriots three Super Bowl rings and current team exploits you have the Red Sox winning two of the last four World Series, Celtics cruising and bruising the NBA, and the Bruins in contention.

The asterisk will always be there.

Now Cindy brady can go and celebrate with the child he fathered out of wedlock, after he dumped the mother of his child. What a guy/gal he is.
