[CBFF] Reveling in their pain

[Jan van der Laan]

I actually went to a sportsbar (20 miles north of where i live) to watch the game.
And when entered: appr. 80% Patriots fans (and some disiillusioned Packer fans, who I reminded of the games we won this season).
And man it was so sweet watching those guys getting quieter and quieter throughout the game.
DA COACH was the only one in the ESPN panel who picked the Giants .
Again: i full heartedly agree with you on this one Jerry.

Driving home at 5.00 am wasn't a problem at all.

Virtual 
high-five, 
Jer!
  
 
  
It's 
amazing 
to 
think 
that 
15 
days 
ago, 
I 
was 
painfully 
depressed 
about 
the 
idea 
of 
a 
Packers/Pats 
Superbowl 
that 
I 
would 
be 
unable 
to 
watch 
out 
of 
disgust.  
Now 
neither 
of 
those 
franchises' 
insufferable 
fanbases 
has 
anything 
to 
cheer 
about, 
and 
that 
makes 
me 
just 
feel 
great.  
:) 
:)

Go 
Giants!  
I 
loves 
me 
some 
schadenfreude!

If 
it 
sounds 
like 
I'm 
reveling 
in 
the 
pain 
of 
the 
New 
England 
fans, 
my
apologies 
in 
advance. 
However, 
watching 
the 
Giants 
win 
Superbowl 
XLII 
just
might 
have 
been 
the 
most 
satisfying 
non-Bears 
victory 
I've 
seen 
since 
the 
97
Broncos 
up-ended 
the 
favored 
Packers.



All 
we've 
been 
hearing 
about 
since 
the 
off-season 
is 
the 
greatness 
of 
the
Patriots. 
Then 
we 
hear 
about 
spygate. 
And 
for 
the 
past 
two 
weeks 
it 
has
been 
a 
Tom 
Brady 
lickfest 
in 
the 
media. 
To 
see 
the 
Pats 
get 
shut-up 
like
that 
and 
to 
see 
a 
cheater 
like 
Belichick 
go 
home 
without 
the 
hardware 
feels
like 
there 
is 
still 
some 
justice 
in 
sports.



I 
will 
say 
this 
much: 
I've 
never 
been 
a 
Randy 
Moss 
fan. 
I'm 
still 
not. 
But
I 
just 
watched 
him 
take 
questions 
without 
attitude 
or 
bitterness. 
One 
small
plus 
in 
their 
column.



It 
was 
also 
nice 
to 
see 
the 
Giants 
pull 
this 
off 
without 
two 
of 
the 
biggest
turds 
in 
sports: 
Tiki 
Barber 
and 
Jeremy 
Shocky.



I'm 
just 
full 
of 
all 
sorts 
of 
warm-fuzzies.



Jerry
