it's entertainment........none of them are 'heartbreaking'

this is already a non-convo if it weren't for the stupidity of the staff

Super Bowl 42 was more heartbreaking but nothing has made me as angry as what occurred last night.

Parcells didn't make you angrier in SB XXXI?

This one doesn't even make the top ten. This one was not so much heart-breaking as it was head-scratching.

It's heartbreaking when you clearly have the better team and yet you did not win, and the other team has lots of jerks.

Just regarding the Patriots:

SB 42
2010 vs. the Jets
SB 46
2006 vs. the Colts / face-guarding
2015 vs. the Bronco / tipping off the snap count

Last night no way makes the top 5.

The Eagles earned it and don't seem like jerks. They aren't me-first guys. Listen to Wentz being happy for Foles. Listen to Foles saying that the team will be better off when Wentz comes back. Listen to them crediting their teammates and their coaches.

They are team-first. They are the un-Steelers, the un-Ravens, the un-Colts, the un-Jets. They are almost Patriot-like.

Good for them, and let's get then next year.
