Oh, the Bankofamericasox won? How pleasant for them and the meek families who attend that anachronistic snoozefest of a recreational event.
At least no one at Fenway left early :bricks:
How do you know that? Were you there? Last time I attended a Bankofamericasox playoff game, everyone around me (and as far as the eye could see) was fiddling with their cell phones, chatting with a neighbor or reading the newspaper.

Based on a thread from a couple of weeks ago, the odds are infinitesimally against both of these things happening on the same day for two home teams from the same area (I triple checked the figures.) The only conclusion is that the NFL and MLB conspired together to get these outcomes....
After Brady missed Julian Edelman with 30 seconds left leaving the Pats stranded at the NO 26, the Saints WP was up to 0.99—the win was virtually assured. With 24 seconds left, it actually shot all the way down to 0.58 after a completion, before recovering to 0.78 with 11 seconds left. And then Brady hit Thompkins and the Saints' needed a miracle.
BOINGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!I have a PatSox boner. What drama.

Ah, Tunescribe -- the #1 poster about the Red Sox in PatsFans history! I knew you couldn't stay away.
I don't watch baseball either, but I did see replays of Ortiz's grand slam online, and it struck me immediately that in the bottom of the 8th, down 4 runs late at night, the stands were still PACKED. That's just the facts. By trying to deny it, you make it seem like you're **gasp** biased against baseball fans.
I'm always surprised at the number of people who feel the need to come into a baseball thread (of which there are maybe three all year that bleed into the main forum) and crap on people's happiness by reminding us (unsolicited) that they aren't fans of baseball.
What baffles me here is, fan of baseball or not, last night was an HISTORIC night in Boston sports. You won't see two more improbable comebacks happening back to back in the same night, possibly EVER again. But you baseball poo-pooers can't put aside your bias for one thread to acknowledge it?
I don't like basketball. But if this Patriots game had been followed by a Celtics 20 point comeback in the fourth quarter to beat the Heat in a playoff game, you better believe I'd have enough appreciation for the spectacle to let people just have a nice thread for once.
