sticking needles in my John Tomase and Boston Herald Voo-doo doll as I remember back to 4 years ago when that jack***** and his rag newspaper slandered a team and legendary head coach on the single most important day for the franchise and fan base.
We have not forgotten JOHN TOMASE!
And we will never forget. No paper purchases and no clicks on the web page of the Herald!

I cant go through another loss to the Giants. I refuse to.
I look at it differently.
This is a major "gravy" year - the "Year without an offseason" where free agency and the draft were flip flopped left the Patriots ill equipped going into the season and this team represents Belichick's attempt to get a lot of band-aids playing well together.
To their credit and his, they're in the Super Bowl. 5th time in 10 years with a very different roster than even 4 years ago, as the Patriots are in fact, re-building as we speak.
So whatever happens happens - it's still been an incredible season worth remembering for a very long time.
...writing the great American novel or whatnot while I wait for kickoff. No pregame BS for me.
Then it will be vodka...
A man after my own heart. I'll turn the TV on for a minute or so in the early afternoon to be sure my cable is working, but then it's off until 15 minutes before Kickoff.
Sex up the significant other, work on your car, fix something broken, etc...
Getting nervous 4+ hours before a game you're not even involved in is a waste.
And, of course, there are those who would say that spending time on a Saturday afternoon not only perusing this Board but actually composing multiple responses to other posters is, well, um, "a waste."

Personally, I don't get nervous...I get JACKED.
But to decry a FAN'S emotional involvement in a Game is RIDICULOUS.
And to describe him as "Not Involved"???
***
DUDE...
I guess you didn't get the memo:
This League doesn't even EXIST, if it weren't for our INVOLVEMENT.
That should be pretty freaking obvious.
***
If we don't pay for tickets, pay for cable, respond to advertising, Et Cetera...then these guy are either running around on sand lots...or selling cars.
That's...kind of obvious...isn't it??
***
The Patriots' Losses are OUR Losses.
100%.
...because we make the existence of this team possible.
That's pretty much...indisputable...isn't it??
***
Likewise...
Their GLORY...is also...OURS.
100%.
ALL of it!!
***
Seriously, Dude:
If you don't consider yourself "involved" in our team's Quest for Glory...
If you don't consider yourself "involved" in our Quest for the CHAMPIONSHIP...
And, of course, there are those who would say that spending time on a Saturday afternoon not only perusing this Board but actually composing multiple responses to other posters is, well, um, "a waste."
Today, I've painted two rooms, taken my dogs for a walk, gotten most of the prep work for tomorrow's food done, and am watching/listening to the Bruins game.
Reading and posting takes seconds.

...and a certain level of ~ what's the word I'm searching for??
Oh, yes...
Involvement.
YOU.
LOSE.
