Why Do They Hate Us?

In his Yahoo! Sports column, Michael Silver points six reasons why the New England Patriots are so hated.

1. Coach Bill Belichick’s personality.

2. Randy Moss’s bad turned good image.

3. The fact that others think that the Pats see themselves as superior.

4. Dynasty factor.

5. The Spygate scandal BS.

6. The common claim that the Pats have run up the score.

But I think that you can probably sum it all up by saying that everyone roots for the underdog, and the Patriots by all means, are not the underdog, especially not this season.

Along Came Dexter

As if I wasn’t watching enough TV, along came Dexter. Watching Monday night television is a complicated mission to accomplish. We watch NBC Chuck, and then Heroes getting less and less interesting while still just as addictive as before, not to mention Monday Night Football (especially if the Patriots ((12-0!!!)) are playing.) So you have to understand, that if it wasn’t for the esthetically designed On Demand button on the remote control, watching shows like Weeds, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Dexter on Showtime, would not have been an option for us. But since it’s there, and since we had a couple boring Tuesdays we started following the tales of a Miami Metro Police Department blood spatter analyst, who also happens to be a serial killer, and goes by the name Dexter. Though it may not be the best show on TV, it delivers a great story. And while some of the dialogs are poor and boring, the main character’s monologue supports the plot’s development, and helps in maintaining the suspense. So I’m hooked, again, what can I do? It’s cold outside…

Hi Colts, No Cheating!!!

“I don’t know how you measure levels of being deaf, but we couldn’t hear anything out there.”  No, it’s not a part of a war veteran memoir, nor one of a demolition expert.  This  quote belongs to New England Patriots QB Tom Brady,  talking about the crowd noise on the Sunday game in  the RCA Dome Vs. the Colts.  Yahoo! reports that The NFL is looking into allegations that the local team piped in noise during the game, to help distract opponents when the other team is on offense. From what I hear, it’s not the first time this is happening.  If one rule fits all,  the Colts should be punished  the same way  the Patriots were punished after the ridicules Spygate thing  with the Jets.

Boston Red Sox Do It Again!

No, I didn’t go to Kenmore square last night. It was to cold/late/crowded for me to go, so I just set and saw it on TV, forcing my wife to stay awake with me and watching the Red Sox celebrate their rightful earned victory.

It’s been told more then once lately, that it is an exiting time to be a sports fan here in New England. The Patriots are kicking ass, the Bruins and the Revolution are doing fine, and the Celtics are back in business after so many years. And yesterday was a great example. It started with the Pat’s with who else but future U.S. president Tom Brady, who completely ignored the Redskins existence. And then, at 8:30, the main course, with the Sox fighting hard and winning the World Series.

And a couple of words about the possibility of A-Rod coming to Boston next year in case Mike Lowell goes: I have nothing against A-Rod, but if it ain’t broken, don’t try to fix it. And after Lowell became the World Series MVP last night, and after his great season, the Red Sox organization should make a considrable effort to keep him here.

Lets Go Red Sox 

Coach Belichick Was Right

I really don’t get it, I don’t understand whats wrong with taking a video of your opponent during the game. The whole purpose in competitive sports is to know your enemy, and find his weakness so you can use it to your benefit. So, filming the other team playing, serve these purposes. I’ve heard this bullshit about fair play. yeah right, like a Football coach or any coach will never tell his team to play the injured player. A chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link, and coaches will always look for that link. Video or not, the Patriots won the game, lets hope they’ll win all of them.
Hope you enjoyed Rosh Hashanna.
