They'll be retiring Tedy Bruschi's #54. I respect Bruschi as a player, and I don't hate him as an analyst, but this is going to be a Patriots slob-fest. Not looking forward to that at all. I'll probably go to my room and put on some Billy Squier and go eat myself a goddamn snack. [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLHc-yIAPbg[/YOUTUBE]
they never show that stuff...to go to the studio or the pre-game crew to do their analysis and they throw a sportscenter in the mix. They might make mention of it in passing while going to break.
They will probably show a clip and maybe a bit more since he works for ESPN but they aren't showing the entire ceremony. Hopefully this is a good omen, they honored Troy Brown at the Thursday Night game 2 years ago.
They won't play that garbage. Instead they will review their Monday Night Football Sports Nation Poll: http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chat/_/id/28055 I submitted my entry: Who is more likely the "bottom" in the Patriots locker room after a win? o Tom Brady o Bill Belichick Hopefully my survey will be the one they choose!!
His number is not being retired!They are paying tribute to him at halftime but he said himself that he doesnt want his number retired so future players can wear that number and compare themselves to him or some crap like that.Still this is not going to be aired on TV.
Thumbs up about the Billy Squire. Fuck Teddy and the Pats. Hopefully that dump Gillette loses power during half-time.
I think the worst in game ceremony was during the Jets Rainders MNF game in 2002 when Tim Brown made some milestone catch and they had to stop the game for like 15 minutes.
That was the most fucked up thing I have ever seen. We lost any momentum we had and went on to lose the game.
Exactly. I don't know if they're going to show it or not, but I'm sure they'll show at least a little bit of it because Bruschi works for ESPN now.
I was assuming they wouldn't show it since they showed absolutely NONE of the Jets halftime ceremonies that first Monday night game, but since Bruschi is party of theit staff, you're right, they probably show some clip.
