Week 21 – Patriotic Heroes

interceptionSatisfying games can be a rarity… similar to football pools that offer such greatness as the MFP. If the last few minutes of that game didn’t leave you speechless, you’re hanging with the wrong crowd. Around week 5 the media was calling for some guy named Galifianakus or something to replace Brady… fast forward to the AFC Championship ‘deflate gate’ where apparently the Colts beat down needed to be overshadowed by something… anything!?!? Every story that shares how Brady is trying to give the MVP truck to Butler will most certainly include something to the extent of “what’s a Chevy Colorado to Tom Brady?”. It’s nothing… everyone already knows that. The real story is about leadership and accountability. I was fairly neutral going into that game… I mean I was pulling for my lovely wife to win this mofo! However, the Patriots deserved the victory for all the BS they’ve had to put up with this season… they also deserve some apologies.

As I write this in tears now that football season is over (and because I’m writing a bunch of checks since I’m not so good), I just wanted to thank everyone for playing as well as your kind weekly remarks and often intense emails. I did want to make one stat correction for whoever wrote “the Bills suck worse than a 1907 Hoover”… sales of the Model 0 didn’t actually start until 1908. Meghan gets all the credit this season… she hung in strong all year despite weekly pool pressure and a little thing called packing all your s#$t and moving across the Country. Compared to living with me, this pool is a breeze! The girls have taken control of the big payoff for two straight years… times are a changing!

Congrats also go to Snowflake, Huey Sr, Dale the Magic Man, and Mr. Radford… your names are all instilled in the Hall of Fame for Meghan to look down upon!! Until next season…
