(OPINION) Pats to open (OPINION) 2008 season (OPINION) against Pitt at home (OPINION)
 
If we win the super bowl, than it is almost a LOCK to say that we will open up the 2008 season at home against Pittsburgh. They always open the season with the defending champion playing at home and out of the 8 scheduled home opponents(Bills, Jets, Dolphins, Chiefs, Rams, Cardinals, Broncos, and Steelers) it is almost a certainty that it will be Pittsburgh. There's no way they want us playing an AFC East team after the seasons they had this year and the Steelers are a HUGE national draw and a team that we have had a history with the past 5 years or so. I think it is pretty much a lock that we open up at home on a thursday night against Pitt.

No. They'll save Pitt for later for ratings.

WHY ARE YOU STATING THIS AS A FACT?

It's definitely misleading considering nothing's official.

I would agree with you IF there was another game that would be intriguing, but there is none. The Colts had an upstart Saints team(at least a lot of people thought they were) to start the season this year. Outside of Pittsburgh, what team on our home schedule would be intriguing at all to a national audience? There is none.

OK, Old Man. Your headline says "Pats to open 2008 season against Pitt at home". Does it make sense for me to make a topic that says "Patriots Win Super Bowl" and then go on to discuss why I think they'll win it?

a rematch of the jets would be cool to rub it in mangini's face, but they'd never do it
