A Nightmare

It was one for the ages.  Again. In a year with some terrible football games, way too many injuries, once again the Super Bowl was a shining light on the NFL. It's only been 12 hours since the game ended.  My feelings are still raw.  Trying to unpack the game, all the mistakes, or both High School Defenses who showed up to play last night.  This wasn't a defense wins championships Super Bowl, this was an outright gun show, and whoever was left standing at the end was going to win. Nick Foles.  How about Nick Foles.  Is Nick Foles an elite QB?  I mean, against that defense anybody could have been a star.   Tom Brady.  How about Tom Brady.  Never would I have thought we should have run the ball more with the greatest of all time at QB. Regardless over 500 yards and 33 points in the Super Bowl, he did his job. You cannot let a backup QB put up 41 points against you in the Super Bowl, and that's it.  Tha...

I Hereby Declare Superbowl Weekend On

It's Super Bowl weekend!  I'm a Patriots fan. A typical first weekend of February...   Tonight I will do what I always do to kick off Super Bowl weekend, simulate the game on Madden.   Last years simulation had the Falcons stopping a late Patriots comeback, and squeaking out a 3 point win. HAHAHAHAHAHA This should be an interesting simulation, because I think it's going to be a fairly low scoring game, maybe not in the first half, but definitely later in the game. For whatever reason I have been so caught up in the lead up to the game, that I haven't even given a moment of thought to who I am going to take on the point spread.   For those of you who do not gamble online, and live in the Province of Ontario, OLG has released no line, and no prop bets, and it's Friday morning before the Super Bowl.   There has been money coming in on the Eagles all week, nothing major, but there is money floating around out there on the ...

Of Course The Pats Are Going To The SuperBowl

What a football game.....WHAT A FOOTBALL GAME. You can throw away the first half of the game because this Pats team does not come out full throttle on purpose.  At the half we are down by 4 points.  It's nothing.  It's right where we want to be heading into the second half.   Not even worried. Pats D has got to be better. Story of the whole season. — AHF (@AngryHabsFan) January 21, 2018 The third quarter was a little different because when the Pats should have been coming to life, the Jags kicked two FG's and it was 20-10 heading into the 4th quarter.  Still plenty of time on the clock but the D had to be better, and they were. Huge stand by the D! Great field position. Here we goooo — AHF (@AngryHabsFan) January 21, 2018 And then, of course, finally, this happened: Big shout-out to the NFL for letting us use this footage of Tom Brady in the fourth quarter pic.twitter.com/jmkT9YrzfA — The Ringer (@ringer) January 21, 2018 Death, T...
