Had a few "fair-weather" fan relatives that where calling it a game at half time. One of my nephews made the mistake of saying: "If the Pats come back from the 21-3 halftime deficit, he would walk out in front of his parents house in a tank top and boxers.
Needless to say I called him at the end of regulation to "remind" him of his comment. Now I'm waiting to see a picture to see if he's got the balls to stand behind his word!
My two other brothers decided to go to bed for an early start today and both said they "should have stayed up if they knew the Pats were making a come back".
I kept saying all night long...I don't care who wins, as long as they play a good game.
Last night was exactly what I wanted, a game that could have gone either way right down to the final drive in regulation!
What I noticed, and told my relatives this morning, was that it was a very PROFESSIONAL game. No fights, no personal fouls, to unsportsmanlike penalties, just hard fought football!
I will also say that it the Falcons keep their core players next season, and build on the few weaknesses (and there were very few) they WILL be an NFC contender for as long as they keep that spirit!
