Super Bowl

You know I was expecting to complain about how the Patriots won a tainted championship. But now, Spygate could not matter less. The fact is, The Pats pulled a old school Boston and choked it away. People talk to me about how my team [The Bills] didn't even make the playoffs. I can exept that to a extent. My team didn't have the "greatest' offense in history in the first 18 games, then in the biggest game of them all score a mere 14 points. My team didn't go 18-0 while killing teams just because they could, then loose to the Giants. A quick pause. Almost every Pats fan I have talked to has said that in fact the Patriots did beat the Giants. You know what? Week 17 really dosn't mean much in this case, as a matter of fact, it means nothing at all. Neither do Brady's 50 TD's or Moss's 23. They don't matter. And i'm not the first to say that. But I will say it the loudest. Where was I? Oh yeah, bashing the Pats, this is fun.
My loyalties have not, and never will, change. I am a Bills fan till I die. But seeing the Pats loose that Super Bowl was proprably the second greatest Super Bowl moment I will ever experiance. This has a lot of implications if you are a superstitious fellow like myself. Who else noticed a New York team beat a Boston team? That might have been the thing that gave me the most joy.I am not a paticular fan of the Giants, but if a New York goes against a Boston then I will always pull for the New York. Even if it is the Jets. Yes the Jets. The reason for this is my baseball loyalty. If you cut open my veins, you will get a knife full of pinstripes. I live, eat, breathe, and die with the Yankees during baseball season. I'm rambling. The point is, with one New York vs. Boston loss should come another, maybe a big one in October? Anyone else see this? If you belive in karma then you should have noticed that ever since the 2004 ALCS collapse Boston sports have been on a uncanny roll? Like, historiclly uncanny? Like, 4 or 5 straight weeks on the cover of Sports Illustrated? Well, maybe their time is up. The 2004 ALCS was arguably the fall of the Yankee dynasty. Super Bowl 42 [I'm not into the roman numerals] could be the fall of the Patriot dynasty. With Moss, Stallworth, and Samuel all up for free agency the Pats won't be anywhere near perfection next year. What could be next? A celtics playoff collapse? Maybe a Yankees- Red Sox ALCS re-match where the Yanks get what they deserve? The New England sports mini dynasty could be over. If the Pats beat the Dallas Cowboys in the Super Bowl this would not be that big of a deal. But the interlocking NY on the helment of the World Champs could have just made October fun for the first time in years.

Just a thought
