Pigskin Acceptance

It's starting to not hurt as much watching the Patriots lose.


I'm not sure that's a good thing.

Pigskin Reverie

I reminded myself again this morning that the Patriots cannot lose this week.


They can't win, either, but at this point, I'll settle for not losing.


It does give me plenty of time to consider, these pigskin days…

DOA Pigskins

Well, we're on to 2024, I guess.


Unfortunately, there's still more of 2023 left. 


When will this ending finally end?

Pigskin Pathos

So, before the game, I was talking with my son and noted that Washington had just given up two of the better defensive ends at the trade deadline; a pretty clear signal the Commanders were on to 2024. "If the Patriots can't win at home against a team that's already given up," I said, "it's over."


Three and a half hours later, it was.

Pigskin Clearance Sale

Everything must go. No reasonable offer refused.

P.S.

Football is cruel. Trust me. I was a Pats fan before Belichick and Brady. I've seen this movie before. It does not end well. 

Yes, I'm still staying for the credits.

Pigskin Boson

Am I feeling good about my pigskin heroes? They beat the Bills just last Sunday, and the Bills are, according to the gridiron cognoscenti, Super Bowl contenders. On the other hand, the Bills didn't look that good beating the Buccaneers last night. In Buffalo. (Hey! It was a short week!)  Still, I should feel good about the Patriots heading down to Miami to play the Dolphins this Sunday. 


Shouldn't I?
