FReepmail scott says to be added to, or to be taken off the NFL Ping list...

No Saints?, No Texans?, No Packers?......No interest!!!!!!

Sorry folks, I might be watching the sb for the commericals.

[Rummyfan]

GO RAVENS!!!!

[Capt. Tom]

With receivers like Welker, Hernandes,and Gronkowski against a good defense and home field advantage in the cold of Foxboro, I see 4 touchdowns and 1 field goal for the Pats.

The Pat's defense has improved from lousy to average so I see 3 touchdowns for the Ravens plus 2 field goals.

Final score Pats 31, Ravens 27. - tom

[brivette]

go Pat’s!!!!

[dainbramaged]

These are usually the best games of the season - being a long suffering Seahawks follower I have no dog in this fight but hope the Patriots and 49ers make it to the big one.

[catfish1957]

Ravens?.... Your team almost got beat last week by a third string rookie QB. They are going to need more than “Go”

[BIGLOOK]

Good morning Patsfan,

Figured I'd get in early so I can follow easily. Of course I'll go with Big Blue and watch the Patriots closely; there's nothing more that I'd like to see than a rematch with the Pats in the SB.

[NonValueAdded]

Patriots WR Chad Ochocinco will not play against the Ravens in Sunday's showdown at Gillette Stadium

Will anybody be able to tell the difference?

[Rummyfan]

We’ll see. The Texans also had the third-ranked defense in the league, about twenty-eight spots above the Patriots D.

[catfish1957]

I about puke every time I hear the phrase "Great defenses win Chanmpionships". That was true 30+ years ago.

Nowdays, elite QB's win championships, and as far as I am concerned there is only one left.

[rintense]

Ocho’s father passed away last Monday and he’s in Florida for the funeral.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Todd O’Conner: (Reading a newspaper) Ya know, believe it or not Bob, according to the odds-makers, San Fransisco is favored to win the Super Bowl.

Bob Swerski: San Fransisco huh? Well, you know whO’s gonna be happy about that then. Da queers!

Superfans: Da queers!

Think five field goals will be enough for the Giants like it was 21 years ago? :)

[NonValueAdded]

Chad has been a disappointment from one who was hoping to see the coming of a Randy Moss II. That said, he is not playing due to the death of his father so now I feel like carp for making an otherwise appropriate comment. Sorry about that.

[mainepatsfan]

No. No they won’t.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Here’s the video for that one,

The 22-year-old Brady was just as confident as the 34-year-old version that takes the field every Sunday for the Patriots. “I still have the image of Tom Brady coming down the old Foxboro stadium steps with that pizza box under his arm, a skinny beanpole, and when he introduced himself to me and said ‘Hi Mr. Kraft,’ he was about to say who he was, but I said ‘I know who you are, you’re Tom Brady. You’re our sixth round draft choice,’” recalled Kraft. “And he looked me in the eye and said ‘I’m the best decision this organization has ever made.’ It looks like he could be right.”

----------------------------------

I recall when he was drafted they flashed back to combine footage and showed his weigh-in nekkid except for short-shorts, and I thought to myself "this waif-boy is fixin to get killed out there...doesn't stand a chance". (If you saw that video, too, you know what I mean) A few years down the road when fate stepped in and he got his chance it was then I abandoned all hope of becoming an NFL scout.
