No Predictions
The good news for every football fan west of the Connecticut River? The Patriots will not be going to a fourth straight Super Bowl. The bad news? Pigskin pundits and bobbleheads won't stop talking about the Patriots.

Tragedy Depends on the Observer's Reference Frame
We all need a little perspective now and then. It may seem like our pigskin reality has dissolved into a plasma of doubt and confusion as New Englander's consider the fresh six inches of snow this raw Monday morning but the reality is that our team is in the NFL playoffs, a single elimination tournament where the stakes have doubled and anything can happen.
It is just a game, after all.

Decades
I spent this sunny December morning surfing the Internet for Patriots porn. I relived some of the Top 100 moments with Tom Brady, and inspired by the Rich Eisen challenge to Bill Belichick asking for a signature moment from Brady's career, not to mention every local pigskin pundit and bobblehead putting together All Decade lists (players, Top 10 Games, etc.), I searched for Patriots "greatest" video content. While this activity is always deeply satisfying, I couldn't help but ask myself…
Can this two-decade run for the New England Patriots actually be appreciated? It is, after all, unprecedented. How do we deal with that which has never been and may never be ever again?

'Twas The Day After Christmas
I hope all your religio-cultural specific celebrations - stolen from pagans who were simply glad the days were once again getting longer - resulted in dreams come true. Or mostly true.
Don't be greedy.
