Ten Weeks On

The NFL has adjudicated Textgate and Noisegate but still no word on Deflategate or Tampergate. Should we expect an answergate any time soongate?

The Charmed Life of T.E. Brady

After winning his fourth Super Bowl and third Super Bowl MVP he was due for a little down time, vacationing in Costa Rica with the impossibly cute kids and his stunning super model wife, a little surf and sand, cliff-diving, golfing and balling with MJ…

You hate him 'cause you ain't him.

Dull Pitchforks and Unlit Torches

The long-awaited Wells Report on the Ideal Gas Law is bound to disappoint, much like other long-awaited events, like Chinese Democracy or the new Paul Blart Mall Cop movie. We wait and we wait and we wait and after a while it doesn’t even matter. Whatever it is, it will never live up to our expectations. I can't even tell you how much I'm dreading that X-Files reboot.

Patriots: I'm late for my pedicure. I'll let you out right afterwards. And then I'll kick your ass. Again. Bye now.

On the one hand, I'm not sure why I should care what anyone in NYC has to say about the Patriots or their fans. Even as a Patriots' fan I'm loathe to personalize the mewling protestations of pigskin pundits and bobbleheads from everywhere west of the Connecticut river. On the other hand, Mehta's column certainly deserves deconstruction, Fire Joe Morgan-style…

Invinceable

Bill Belichick got rid of the best offensive lineman he ever coached and the Patriots went on to win the Super Bowl.

Now he's gotten rid of the best defensive lineman he ever coached. So, Super Bowl?
