    Falcons have one chance break Brady's leg on the 1st offensive play of the game

    I moved to USA in 2004. I believe God hates me. As a person who lived his whole time here in New York metro area, year after year, in the last 12 years I saw a Boston team winning championship year after year. I single handedly finished the Red Sox curse. I hate Red Sox more than I hate Pats to be honest. I made Boston fucking Bruins Stanley Cup Winners. I made Celtics NBA champs. I made Patriots SB winners.

    Only time I rooted for Pats was against Giants and Pats blew it twice. Don't get me wrong but I hate Boston. I hate everything about Boston. I hope you lose big time in an embarrassing fashion and no Boston team wins another championship again.

    It can't be as entertaining as this:


    They couldn't even get Howdy Doody out of retirement that year?

    Hey felker. I won't. :)

    Question for you. After Brady/Bellichick duo is gone and after Boston's good luck runs out and Boston teams turn into crap for say 10 years straight, how will spoiled Boston millennials handle this?

    I have no idea. I'm about as far from being a millennial as one can get. Also I moved out of the Boston area in 1975 to go to grad school. While I go back to visit friends every few years it's not at all the same as living there.

    Gotta love when an OC who is expected to leave his job after the SB randomly loses his playbook for an hour the week before the game against the Pats.

    Not suspicious at all.

    I know y'all hate Francessa with a passion but he made an interesting point today.

    Can anyone remember a pre-Super Bowl period like this where one team literally made no headlines? No Falcon players said anything remotely substantial and they've been as quiet as possible. It's very interesting to say the least.

    Hopefully they'll let their play Sunday talk for them. The other guys, as usual, haven't had too much to say either.

    Saw a good stat today - When Brady is under pressure his completion rate drops from 74% to 51%. For Ryan it drops from 75% to 56%. That moves Brady down from number four in the NFL to 16 and Ryan goes from number two to number three. (Brees has the smallest decline and moves from number five to number one.)

    I'm not a gambler.
    If I was a gambler, I would never bet against Belichick.

    I give Atlanta the slight talent nod on offense, everything else goes to the Pats. The line seems low but I'm thinking all stupid money is on Atlanta because the whole country hates the evil empire. Ryan can dethrone the king today but it would shock the world. Here is hoping we get a good game to watch and remember. Patriots 38 - Falcons 34

    No matter what, I lose tonight.

    Either the Patriots win, then my bandwagoning wife won't shut up about it.

    Or the Falcons win, then my wife is in a bad mood.

    I will admit, my only interest in watching this game is as a hater…I want the patriots to lose. From the days when they were underdogs and justifiably so because the team on paper looked thin and they still kept winning (by hook or crook) to this past few seasons when teams lose to them before the step on the field…I keep waiting for that big loss, hopefully it is today…

    That said I still think they are the favoured team…based on all three phases of the game…but this Falcon team has the tools to upset them…so I will watch hoping to see Brady/Belichick eat some humble pie..

    GO FALCONS!
