At the half, Patriots 14, Rams 3.

Let's keep this up guys!

I'm not so much a Patriots fan as I am a Rams hater.

To adapt the old joke about the Giants, "I like the 49ers and anyone who beats the Rams."

And, what a finish! Won by a field goal with, what, 7 seconds left? WooHoo!

It was a fabulous finish! I too am a Ram hater and even though we're in Seattle, the boy and I are still true 49ers fans.

The second greatest winning drive in SuperBowl history, IMHO. Less than a minute left, no timeouts, a second year quarterback who doesn't look old enough to shave, a long field goal from the right hashmarks... all leading to one of the biggest upsets ever in the SB!

I think the best part was the look in Kurt "Jesus likes me" Warne's eyes.. Where's your messiah now, loser? That and watching the various Fox analysts eating crow over their pre-game predictions.

Well, I'm a Pats fan...

...and oh, what sweet payback for all the years of suck-ass seasons.

And they still get no respect. Vegas is refusing to give them better than mediocre odds for repeating next year. What, do they think Brady's going to turn into a crap QB now that he has a ring in his second year? Sheesh. The Pats logo should be Rodney Dangerfield in a tricorn hat.

...and oh, what sweet payback for all the years of suck-ass seasons.

And as a long-suffering Niners fan, I know the feeling well!

The morning after our first Super Bowl win, I saw a t-shirt that showed the scoreboard in the Silverdome with one second left in the 4th quarter:

San Francisco 26 Cincinnati 21

underneath that, in big sweeping letters:

Next Year Is HERE!

Enjoy it. And ignore Vegas. A chimp throwing darts makes better predictions then those idiots.

And somewhere in America, Scott Norwood is curled up in the fetal position...
