Can you imagine the ovation Bruschi would have got if the Patriots had won the Superbowl and he then he retired?

Well, they set up chairs for the guys and had them watch the ceremonies. I can only imagine what the four were thinking.

Nice photo! Only in that company do NFL linebackers look like midgets.

man, i just watched buckner's first pitch on youtube, and i got chills. i dont have any affiliation with the sox. im not a fan at all. but that was great stuff. i really feel bad that something so trivial as a baseball game could cause so much trouble in one mans life. i hope now all that is over for him.
