The internet is going absolutely ape chit!!!! I’m so extremely thrilled ....it feels like election night!!! And once again millions upon millions here in the US and around the world got a taste of American apple pie!
There are a lot of things you can learn out on a football field. You learn how to take a good licking and not cry about it, and you learn how to hand one out and not go around bragging about it.

“Anybody else?”
Yeah - don’t call pass plays when you’re in easy field goal range and a field goal will finish out the game. And my 49ers are about to hire Atlanta’s offensive coordinator - the guy calling their plays. Just great.
Lesson? Keep attacking until the game clock reaches 0:00. Never play not to lose.
Who cares? Atlanta won the popular vote...
Never, never, never surrender (Quit.)
Maybe it was the Rocky Balboa strategy....
It’s not yardage that wins the game - only scores do.
Fight like you’re ten points down, til the final buzzer - especially when you think you’ve ‘got it in the bag’. Overconfidence kills.
If lose, do it with dignity. Don’t blame it on the ‘Russians’.
In politics, you must have a point and purpose in playing the game. If you have no overall message, or no overriding theme to your campaign, you’re going to lose.
You may not always respect your opponent, but never ever disrespect your opponent’s supporters.
Winning is a team effort, which is why you’ve got to have the best team mates you can find, if you want to win the crown. If your team is composed of sycophants, inexperienced wunderkinds, and lightweights, you may as well not even show up on game day.
Concentrate your efforts in the areas where they’ll do the most good. Expending vital resources in areas firmly under your control weakens you in areas where you’re not.
Be of good cheer. A bright, happy, and confident outlook, is sometimes the winning edge.
While President Trump called the Patriots’ locker room to congratulate them on their victory, Hilly Clinton called the Falcons’ locker room: “I know what it’s like to blow a big lead.”
