See folks, there is no Colts bias at ESPN. They just view them as the #1 undisputed ultimate sports franchise.

Bill Belichick and Tom Brady aren't yet in the Pats' Hall of Fame (that honor belongs to a select dozen that includes Jim Lee Hunt and Babe Parilli), but given that they've amassed more Super Bowl titles than all but one coach/QB tandem in NFL history, a corner surely awaits. It may be hard to find, though. The Hall will be housed in the new retail megaplex known as Patriot Place. Located next to The Razor, it is more than 1.3 million square feet of shopping (Circuit City, Bed Bath & Beyond) and entertainment (a 14-screen deluxe movie theater). Patriots fans may never have to go home again. As for the museum that owner Bob Kraft built with $22 million of his own money? Visitors will be able to see all three of the team's Lombardis, but there's still no word on whether there will be a videotape library. -Eddie Matz
