I briefly entertained the thought that you were speaking about me. However, I quickly dismissed that idea, given my affiable personailty and witty repertoire.

No, it wasn't you, Trash. I posted some of the same stuff regarding the Pats bitch-slapping of the Steelers on a few forums and some drug-diluted degenerate actually had the nerve to accuse me of "haunting" hundreds of forums with the same drivel.

Pardon me for working 12 hours a day and owning a business. In my next life I'll choose smoking pot 24/7 to actually doing something with my life.

Hands down one of the worst Superbowl games in the past decade.

The only aspect of the game that looked good was defensive play early.

Both offenses stunk in the 1st half. Bad play calling, airballs, dirtballs...

Officiating was pretty bad for the most important game of the year. Both those upheld challenges were just plain not taking responsibility on behalf of the officials and it cost both teams a challenge.

Coaching was atrocious and if you've ever seen Belichek on the sidelines he was at his most animated last night. I swear I saw him yelling at one of his assistant prior to the half asking him "WTF is going on out there?!"

And Reid's clock managment made me think I was watching a regular season Vikings game. That was some of the worst clock management I've ever seen.

Hello? Its the Superbowl! The Summit, the Apex, of the football season! LAST GAME OF THE YEAR!!! SHOW SOME HUSTLE!!!! ACT LIKE YOU WANT TO WIN!!!! Less than 6 minutes on the clock and they spent forever in the huddle and then just meandered up to the line of scrimmage. Pathetic.

And although McNabb really looked bad out there Brady wasn't to far ahead of him.

The only aspect of the game I liked? What really impressed me? And I am not a fan by any means but DAMN! What can you say about T.O.? The media was hammering him all week and he made a comment about how if it was Brett Favre they would be talking about "What a warrior" and "look at his passion for the game" He not only was dead on but he proved it convincingly.

And in closing the best thing I saw on TV last night? Lays potato chips. "MC Hammer! Where have you been?"

I also think the popcorn vendors had a bad game. The one guy in section 8 reported had the wrong change given back to him, the popcorn in section 14 had too much butter. Yes, all in all, a pretty bad day!

Yes you can say McNabb did have a bad game... with his passes low into the dirt, or sailing overhead, or behind recievers..and his interceptions..
He did throw 30 completions for 357 yards, third most in super bowl history. And threw for 3 touchdowns, compared to Brady's 2.
But.. in this case, the negatives probably outweigh the positives. Like they say "there's always next year".

Making fewer mistakes is Brady's whole gig. He gives just enough production to get the win, while making very, very few mistakes. It's one of the reasons why the Pats win, and it's one of the reasons why Brady looks like such a mediocre QB for the first few times that you watch him. Watch 5-6 games and his whole style starts to make sense. It's not exciting like some QBs, no 40yd QB runs, very few long bombs, 1 or 2 TDs per game, but you start to see how effective it is, and how much most other 'high production' QBs hurt their team with the INTs, the huge sacks because they either scrambled backwards when they should have just gotten rid of the ball or took a shallow sack. I thought he was a scrub until I managed to watch a few games and began to appreciate what he does.
