Three NFL teams have fallen to the SI curse so far. I downloaded this week’s copy of Sports Illustrated to my iPad (I also found a paper version of it in my mailbox too…very strange concept, this magazine thing.) and to my intense horror, saw that Tom Brady and my Patriots were gracing their cover.

Game Day
Lets Go Patriots!
Pix From Opening Weekend
After coming oh so close to a strike, lets celebrate this past weekend’s opening of the NFL season with a set of fun photos from around the league via Boston.com’s The Big Picture.
Bruins Win Stanley Cup!
OK, I admit it. I am the epitome of a ‘front runner’/bandwagon/show up late to the party Bruins fan. I don’t think I watched a Bruins game all year until the playoffs. I’m the first to admit that I lost interest in the team and the sport of hockey. Growing up in New England, I [...]
Toe The Line
With all the trash talking coming out of the NY Jets camp this week in advance of the big Jets – Patriots NFL Playoff game, Wes Welker (New England WR) may have had the most fun with the situation. As you may have heard, videos leaked online that supposedly depict Rex Ryan sharing a fetish for [...]
Just Watch It On TV
On the eve of the NFL season, here is an interesting info graphic from Mint’s Blog about the rising costs of being an NFL fan. Sadly, my New England Patriots sport the highest average ticket prices by a pretty wide margin. Via Mint Blog
A State of Denial
So I’ve been in a state of denial since Week 1 of the NFL season. I’ve just not accepted that Tom Brady got his knee ruined 8 minutes into the 2008-09 NFL season and is out for the year. It took watching Matt Cassell QB the Pats to a victory of the Jets this past [...]
Bad Omens For the Perfect Season?
OK, so I’m not one who’s into curses or bad karma, but a couple of things have happened this week that have made me a little concerned for this week’s game between the undefeated Patriots and the Chargers. First, the news that broke yesterday that some desperate female “friend” of Randy Moss’s is accusing him [...]
Sports Life Is Good
The Red Sox are in the World Series for the second time in four years, the Patriots are undefeated at 7-0 and looking like they are well on their way to a very special season, and (shudder) the Celtics are looking like a formidable team to beat in the NBA Eastern Conference. In fact, William [...]
Nice Weekend
What a nice weekend from a sports perspective. The Red Sox took two of three from the Yankees at Yankee Stadium, and have beaten them five out of six times and we’re only a month into the 2007 baseball season. And then, during the NFL draft, the Patriots went and grabbed Randy Moss from the [...]
Super Bowl
Some random thoughts while watching the Super Bowl: Weren’t you just waiting for Joe Namath to “stop by” to pay Suzy Kolber a visit on the sideline and just plant one smak on her lips? The kicker from Seattle should be fired. He cost me winning the halftime score. Could the Rolling Stones have looked [...]
Patriots At It Again
I’ve been trying not to post too much about sports this year, just to try to diversify the content on the site a bit. However, with it being NFL Playoff time, I’m can’t help myself. Yes, its that time of year again. My New England Patriots just polished off a first round playoff game victory [...]
