If they had a kickoff and another celebration, I think I would be dead now. We were having a mini riot in my house at the time and I was stuck on the bottom of a pig pile that I ended up getting bruised ribs. Best pain I ever felt. Next day I went to class, felt like I was in a fight with Rampage Jackson, and some girl in my first class was like "Did you watch the game last night" as I had no voice, sore, covered in Pats gear with the biggest smile ever on my face. At least my comp science teacher let me leave class to get in line for hats and t-shirts at Dicks since she knew I was not in condition that day.

I believe the timing was correct according to NFL regulations.

However, soon after, the NFL changed the rule so that the clock stops the second the ball goes through the posts/hits the ground.

i have to admit to being utterly shocked that the kick was actually good after 42 years (pretty much my whole life) of having never won the big one.

I was there and it was good and the next thing I remember was being on bourbon street celebrating long into the night..........

I live and work in an area with a lot of fans from all over the country. I recall hearing when one person (a Browns fan) started talking about that, I'm fairly certain it was in 2003, though it may have been after SB 38. Everyone ridiculed him - fans of the Eagles, Steelers, Giants, Jets, Dolphins, etc. Four years later he brought it up again and lo and behold, many, if not most of those very same fans were agreeing with his conspiracy theory.

I suppose it is similar to the idea of finding stats to prove your theory, rather than looking at stats to reach a conclusion. There was more than one pats fan that came to the conclusion that the 'NFL didn't want us to win' sixteen months ago too.

How about this; your "dynasty" was a broken tackle away from losing back to back Super Bowls on the last play.

No conspiracy there, just the facts, so b!tch all you want, won't change a thing.

I could build a Super Bowl 42 conspiracy theory website too if I wanted to; won't change the fact that we lost, so why torture myself....................
intentially being an ass but when you use the phrase just the facts and you get the facts wrong thats not good. The Rams won SB 34 and lost 36. The Ravens won 35.

I really hate that so many people are always trying to discredit the Patriots' championships. Even before Spygate it seemed like so many people were intent on finding ways to make the Patriots Super Bowls look worthless. It's annoying.

I don't get how potentially losing a few seconds really makes a difference anyway. Do people really think the Rams would have run a squib kick back for a TD? Come on. Rams fans need to just accept that they were shut down for most of that game and if they truly deserved to win, they would have.

All Spygate did was give the haters a reason to keep hating. People have been saying the titles were tainted because of the tuck rule and or 9/11 for years. Then they wonder why we get defensive, it's amazing. Also amazing is that no one seems to point out that if the camera was such a distinct advantage why is it that we had a better record in 07 and 08 than we did in 05 and 06? Schedule and injuries are a factor sure, but the fact is that in 2006, seemingly with the camera, we blew the biggest lead in post season history and in 2008 without we went 11-5 with our backup QB and probably would have made the AFC title game if not for being the only 11-5 team ever to miss the playoffs in the 6 team format.

I live in the real world, not a fantasy world where there was a conspiracy towards the Rams in Super Bowl 36.

Sounds like you hang around with some real fruitloops too by the way.

"We won because of 9/11."

Ok then.

Do they hang out at area 51 too?

Thanks for contributing to this thread.
