Default Can we talk about the Patriots now?

I don't care anymore. In my opinion, Seattle had the SB stolen from them. It doesn't matter to me anymore. I just want to talk New England Patriots football again. I want the team to be relevant again. Everyone has a 0-0 record now. Pittsburgh won, congratulations to them. My attention has officially shifted to next season.

Dude, you've got me all wrong. I'm not trying to stir up any trouble, I just can't take much more of this "Steelers are the best team in football stuff".

You're right. Forget I said it.

I've been talking Pats all day. It's next year now. Free agency, the combine, the draft, I'm a happy guy.

It's been less than 24 hours since we all watched a Superbowl in which the officiating appeared to effect the outcome of the game in a way that favored a team with a better storyline. Most of us who are discussing this are doing so this with an eye to next season. The Patriots were effected by similarly abyssmal officiating in their division game on the road against the Broncos, and oddly the Steelers would have been too if the Colts had not self destructed.

I don't want to be discussing officiating effecting our 4th in 6 campaign next season. So the more we talk about it now perhaps the more note the media will take and hopefully the NFL will do something about it. OK? You want to bury your head in the sand and return to discussing things we cannot influence that are months away to boot like FA and the draft, be my guest. Just don't be upset if we do everything right and end up getting screwed out of a Lombardi because the officiating still sucks. It will if everyone just moves on - and the NFL will be ecstatic if we do.

I agree, but do more and steady posts about bad officiating on boards like this cause some kind of background hum that Tagliabue can hear? I mean, what good can it do? Some petitions were started, OK, but will they ever get to an office that can do some good? In an ideal world, maybe.

Default Ok

Here's some Patriot talk. On Espn radio Sal Palintonio (sp) said he had an 'off the record' talk with Brady before the SB game.

He said the the conversation revealed that Tom felt sick knowing that the Patriots could beat either one of the teams playing in the SB.

If it was off the record then why did ole Sallie mention it on national radio?

Really? Way to go, Sal, it's "off the record" for a reason.

But even so, Brady was right.
