Thought for the Day

No great quotes here today, just a link to a blog post that I think is sophomoric, obnoxious, and just plain thoughtless. This guy (Eric Wilbur, Boston.com) puts the blame of the Patriots loss in Super Bowl 46 on the shoulders of Tom Brady.

Sorry, but this just is just dumb:

That's the TftD.

Not for nothing, but had Brady and the Pats finished the job, he was going to win his third MVP. No doubt in my mind.

I said it, very early on, that the safety was a huge play in the game, since it got the Giants nine points in total. It set a precedent for the game. Now granted, it becomes a footnote if some other things happen - turnovers, the Wes Welker drop - but those things didn't occur.

So much more to get into. The commercials were fine, Madonna was so-so at best but overall no worse than the Black Eyed Peas, some "performer" flipped off the camera during halftime, and the Madge's show had a lame end.

NBC did a good job, but Dan Patrick was painful on the post game stage. He's normally better than that.

That's kind of all I've got for now. Maybe more later. I'm sure you're all on pins and needles!

Yea, I read Wilbur's article last night. I think he had a drunken rage moment. What an idiotic article. Seriously idiotic.
