I know, I know, this is w-a-a-a-y off topic and probably shouldn't be here. However, since it's mostly harmless, I can't resist just this once, especially since I've been a Pats fan since probably before birth (my dad was an usher at Schafer/Sullivan/Foxboro Stadium for over 15 years starting on day one, 4 years before I was born...).

PennsyHoosier, how can you say that the Pats are the most boring team in NFL history? They beat the highly touted Rams in 2002 in the biggest upset in Super Bowl history on a last second field goal, and they beat the Panthers last year in a game that was at first a nerve racking defensive battle then later an edge-of-your-seat offfensive explosion. They also beat the Raiders in the Snow Bowl with possibly the two most difficult field goal attempts in playoff history. This month they just held the most prolific offense in the NFL (the Colts) to only 3 points, and just put 41 on the best defense (the Steelers) in the league. What is boring about that?

Unless, you mean the negative, Randy Moss-like hijinks that other teams are famous for. I guess in that case, you've be right, the Pats are pretty boring. They are the best T-E-A-M in professional US sports, where no one person is more important than the team itself. In other places, it's mere lip service. In Foxboro, it's for real.

Paul you said it. Patriots have class. No superstars with big egos. No antics. Just class. We in the Charger world miss Rodney Harrison, although glad he got his ring last year, and this year in two weeks. Pats look favored in the poll so for. I did think more people like the commercials, that is my favorite part as the game always seem to be a blowout.

The season ended with the Buffalo Bills' final play. I'll be out looking for a train.

New England wins it. It's only close if Pilly gets TO back, but NE wins anyway.

Enjoy

The Championships are decided. Philly won it going away this early afternoon. But if you have been following, Philly is only good NFC team. Eagles are tough, but can they handle the New England Patriots, the reigning Champs. New England dominated a very good Pittsburgh team, creamed the colts last week, will also be tough.

So Who do you pick and why.
