Two great quarterbacks and are working with excellent receivers. My predicted score is PATS 38 - GIANTS 24.

I have been a Giants fan since 1956.

I am VERY glad the 49ers beat the Saints.

Too late as you may recall Mrs. Obama and Mrs. Biden already graced Nascar with their presence last fall.

However, league sources told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that Goodell has already determined that the Patriots have violated league rules when they videotaped defensive signals by the Jets' coaches.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- This videotape needs no interpretation: New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick walked out of his news conference on Wednesday when pressed repeatedly about the sideline spying scandal that landed him on NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's crowded docket.

Think that speaks for itself

The following year, the NFL banned the use of snowplows on the field during a game. In a 2007 interview for an NFL Network segment about the game, Shula recalled protesting the "unfair" act, to which Commissioner Pete Rozelle responded that, while he agreed wholeheartedly, without a rule explicitly barring such use of the plow, there was nothing he could do.

You are correct about the snowplow incident. At the time it was not illegal.

I still want them to lose! T

Does this thread repeal and replace mainepatsfan’s usual game thread?

Why do people still obsess on the taping thing? It was a stupid rule (you could observer defensive signals through any means you chose except video taping) necessitated by another stupid rule (no helmet radios for defense) and it was 5 freaking seasons ago. It actually resulted in good because now the defense gets radios too, thus ending the whole idiotic situation. People should get over it.

Of course you are correct. By the way, has the word went out yet for this year’s FR Nascar Fantasy League?

That zip line has been the most popular part of the week.
They sold advance tix for 10 bucks.
I saw an interview with two college girls who scalped theirs for 200 a ticket.
I don’t think the wait (for non VIPs) has ever been under 2 hours.

Tebow was at Florida from 2006 to 2009. Those were during the Urban Meyers years at Florida.

Will be interesting to see how many left at game start time.

Indy is a unique situation, it’s probably the smallest stadium for the SB, but the number of people coming in is lower because it’s not a “resort” destination.
