... Are "The Patriots" a football ( or whatever ) team, from Patrick Henry high school? In this particular scenario, The New England Partiots are the nickname of a team which plays American style football based in Foxboro Mass. Last Sunday, the Patriots beat a team from Carolina called the Panthers for the championship of the League in a spectacle which has been called the super bowl. It has become an event for many in america, usually the most watched television show of the year which takes place after a significant amount of hype and build up. The games usually suck but every once in a while there's a good one. The one last sunday's game was a good one. |

Minor correction: with the championship game still in doubt with only four seconds left on the clock, last Sunday's game was as good as it gets... /daytripper (And the second best game was played in 2002 ;-) |

With all due respect to my friends in the northeast; all the hyperbole about this "great" game is a bit overblown beyond the geography of NE fans. Neither team played consistently great football on either side of the ball. The Pats pretty well kicked their asses early on, and it should have been a laugher at the end. Only a few lucky breaks, blown calls, and missed opportunities kept the game in doubt at all. Exciting finish? Undeniably. Great game? Hardly, IMHO. Joe F. |

Undeniably.
Great game? Hardly, IMHO. Joe F. I guess you could deny it, but I guess the greatness comes with the magnitude of the hype, no? I mean, it was great for a superbowl, wasn't it? -- so much fishing, so little time -- --please remuv the 'NOWAY2it' from my email addy to email me-- |
