Tip: Anyone outside Northeast (e.g., South Florida), these issues are now selling for $100. Go to your nearest newsstand down there and pick up a few.

Let’s hope that “A Bitter End” becomes the new headline for the demise of much of the MSM and the vile Democrap Party!

I’m glad Howie got a friend to buy up the copies in Palm Beach.

Hope he gives one to Trump.

This is another example of the out of control, hate filled NeverTrump mediots. The Globe hates the Patriots, Brady, and the owners for being pro Trump. So in typical NeverTrump insanity, they posted this Fake News picture!

Also nice that the NY Times took a bath on the Globe purchase.

Patriots Super Bowl LI run came to "A Bitter End."

Lies. It would explain why it was called (numbered) Super Bowl... *LI*, haha. Kind of prophetic.

I think the mark-up would go to the newsstand guy.

I think the Globe would just get the usual price.

Who can explain how the betting went. I was told the game ended in a tie on the clock and people who bet on Atlanta won on the spread.

But the score shows as 34-28.

Do the office pools use that score as final and did people betting the spread lose?

For a photo op they should get Brady, Belichick and Kraft to hold it up with the Lombardi trophy a la Harry Truman and the Chicago Tribune .

Morons probably composed the page in the middle of the 3rd quarter and went to bed.

That’s a huge surprise if the betting is based on score at the end of regulation. I never heard of that.
