Goose and Bloo,

Can't you appreciate some good hearted SMACK talk? I was taking a shot at Slip, but figured I could get everyone else with a shot on the beloved Patsies. I even qualified my remarks as a JOKE.

Raider fan?, I ain't no damn Raider fan, I wasn't sad to see them go... I'm actually a Bronco fan, so the Raiders are public enemy #1.

Your team won the tournament... they beat the best teams in the AFC and the best of the NFC. Whether or not the Pats were the best, doesn't matter... They wear the crown till Jan '03. Don't be defensive just because they only scored like 5 offensive touchdowns after week 7. Or because they needed touchdowns from special teams and defense to compete against other playoff teams. Or some fine print on some obscure rule that says its not a fumble when you have control of the ball, aren't passing, but were thinking about passing sometime during that quarter, then get hit and "drop" the ball. These are not reasons to have an inferiority complex. Jeez, just be happy, I mean, it was almost as great to win the Super Bowl as it was to have Ray Bourque win the Stanley Cup with another team.

And don't take it out on me because Pedro got shelled on Monday either. I like the Sox, alright?

Seriously, I think that the way the Pats won this year showed what sports should be like. Not a bunch of yahoos flashin' money, dancin' and chokin' and whinin' when things get tough. No, they didn't have the most talent. Yes, the were the best TEAM. They have rings, a sports illustrated video and a trophy to prove it. Being the underdog should make things sweeter for you as their fans. It means they didn't just buy a championship (see NY Yankees, yes a cheap shot against the Yankees should get me back on your good sides), they probably shouldn't have won, but they did because they showed up and played better football.

Now please, I'm waiting for a response from Slipknot.

Slip????
