Enough Of These Guys

December 10, 2007 @ 08:38

Winning streaks in sports are only good if it’s your favourite team that’s streaking.

This really hit home again yesterday as I watched the New England Patriots run their record to 13 and 0 with a 34-13 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve had just about enough of Bill Belichick and that quarterback of his who was born without sweat glands.

In my world there are four steps to making me puke. You start out confident, then you become good, then you become great and then you become smug, and that’s what the Patriots have become.

Earlier this year Belichick was accused of cheating, so what does the son of a bitch do, he turns around and proves he doesn’t need to cheat by pounding the shit out of everything that stands in his way.

He’s become a poster boy for smug. He stands there on the sidelines with the same expression on his face. An expression of expectation, like what’s happening week after week is supposed to happen because he’s so bloody good.

And when the game ends he does that arrogant little trot across the field and barely acknowledges the opposing coach, like the other guy is come of amateur who doesn’t belong on the same field as he does.

And don’t get me going on Tom Brady. It’s not enough the guy can throw a football like nobodies business, but he’s got to be good looking and wildly successful at the same time, and he knows it.

Like his coach he’s developed an arrogant stature and smugness that becomes even more aggravating when he takes his goddamn helmet off and he hasn’t even worked up a sweat after throwing for four hundred yards and four touchdowns.

In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve developed a dislike for the New England Patriots but rather than have it turn me off the NFL over the final few weeks, it’s given me new interest and passion.

I want them to lose. It won’t happen next wee when they play the Jets, or the week after when they play the Dolphins and it probably won’t happen on the final weekend when they play the Giants. But that’s OK.

An undefeated regular season will make losing in the playoffs that much sweeter for all those who feel the same way I do. As a matter of fact I’d like to see them go all the way to the Super Bowl and then lose there.

I’d love to see that sense of entitlement all come crashing down in Arizona on February 2nd. During the game I’d love to see Brady get pounded into submission and then after the game I’d like to see the opposing coach snub Belichick.

Now that would be sweet.

Wow!! Settle down Fred. Every team in the NFL cheats, the Patriots just got caught. I don't blame them for beating the shit out of every team that they come across after that. They have the best coach, quaterback and receiver in the league. The defense is pretty good too. You Bills fans are all the same!

It may be sweet, but highly unlikely. I'd love to see a perfect season, if only to wipe the smug expressions off of the Miami Dolphins who had that perfect season all those years ago.
You have to give credit where credit is due. These guys are scary good!

I don't get it. It seems like you and everyone else are totally forgetting about the really unbelievable streak that's going on. The streak that should be eclipsing the Pats streak. One that has never being acomplished before. The Miami Dolphins are about to go 0-16! That is incredible. With all the talent throughout the NFL, the Dolphins can't muster up enough for 1 win. And it dosn't seem like they're going to choke down the stretch either. And by that, I mean it dosn't seem like they're going to blow it all away and win. What's more interesting then watching a team run the table? Watching a team run the table in reverse.

I would love to see Miami winless in week 16 and New England undefeated in week 16 go at it and have Miami shock the world and win their first game. How sweet would that be?
The only thing better than that would be Miami and New England playing on the final weekend of the regular season as opposed to the second last week.

Get over it Fred. You just can't associate yourself with winners because you've worked at too many loser radio stations...like Mix 99.

In an attempt to overcome rubbish spamming concerned with my wordpress blog, I would need to build a tiny disclaimer together with the comment box. I ought to let the blog site readers be assured that I encourage all of them to campaign for their particular services provided they invest some respectable information regarding the piece. I will not mind working just a little bit because it helps to get a really good link.

Developing a Mosque at Ground Zero has to be the ridiculous notion during the history of humanity, I very seriously assume that it's intentionally devised, at best, to insight controversy. I am not a conspiracy theorist but nevertheless , it's possibly shameful or wicked, plausibly both of them. alba

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
