The Boston Globe is the publisher?

Well, there’s the silver lining. The Globe is taking it in the shorts.

>>Winning 18 or 19 games in a row is NOT historic.<<

I think you can argue that this is the best regular season in history.

But like the Atlanta Braves having the best season records and Yankees winning the world series, its the Yankees that are the team of the 90’s, not the Braves.

Besides, Belichick and Brady leaving the field before the game is over and refusing to return for the final play was about as classless as anything in pro-sports. That’s not the kind of people we want to point to as the greatest.

There’s no excuse for the way the Pats played yesterday. They walked through the game as if their reputation alone could pull them to victory. The defense was spotty and the offense was abysmal. If Brady was injured, he should be ashamed of himself. He over or under threw his receivers time and again. And he moved in the pocket like a washer woman. What a major disappointment.

I am a patent and tm atty, and pulled this one down. Someone is going to have a problem proving actual (legit) use of the mark, which is a requirement.

This has been tried before

Or in other words: Don’t count your Championships before they’re won.

I loved it when Brady said that losing wasn’t something they were prepared for.

I was listening to Ron Jaworski BEFORE the game proudly declaring and insisting that the Pats are the greatest team ever and no doubt their expected 19-0 season proves his prediction.......OOPS.

“Shut the F#@% up”

Such a polite young man. Prove your allegations of cheating regularly and prove that other teams do not.

It was a good game. End of story. Brady has played in more SB’s so it is likely he will lose some. He will more than likely be back a couple more times.

I pulled for the Pats and will do so again next year ( like i have the last 20 years ) unlike those of you who change teams year to year base on draft choices and records. They will be back as are all great teams.

Tom Brady should not go on vacations to exotic beaches before Superbowl games.

Tsk Tsk.

(Oh Happy Day).

And what a game. I bet New England really hates Mannings now. Is that two years in a row that a manning dashed the hopes and dreams of a Superbowl victory?

As one of the user posts on the Amazon page says, “Not even a hung over football god could sleep thru this provocation.”

SOP - Standard Operating Procedure for the organization. It starts with their leader. Give me a classy organization to root for, like the Indy Colts, any day.

They all talk that crap big deal. What are they going to say, “we are ready to lose and expect to do so” ??

You people do not get it it is a game that has morphed in to a big business but still a game. On any day any team can beat any other team that has been proven time and time again just like last night. Depends on who shows up to play and plays all 60 minutes.
