1. The only way the Pats win this weekend is if I put some serious money on Denver...

Actually, I really think Seattle will make it...and they'll beat Denver, but if for some reason Pats get in, I think they'll beat Seattle...

The Chargers would have tied the game if they had gotten the ball back one more time.

3. I really hoped SD would play well, and then revert to form this coming weekend...

If they had played marginally less shitty early on, they could have won...they are such under-achievers.

One thing I've said about Denver, they're good, but at week one they were as good as they were going to be...other teams have improved, they have not.

The Patriots are 4-point underdogs.

The Patriots fans are spoiled, unappreciative, crybabies, so says Charles Barkley.

Tom Brady isn't Tom Brady any more.

Peyton Manning was "Sportsman of the Year" and Aaron Hernandez wasn't.

The Broncos are "The Team of Destiny."

And, don't forget, Bill Belichick is a serial cheater.

You'd think New England would have been better off losing on Saturday to the Colts. They have no shot Sunday at Denver in the AFC Championship Game. [Note sarcasm font.]

The Patriots have neatly reverted to the role of disrespected, under-appreciated and counted-out misfits.

New England has become the team no one outside of New England really wants in the Super Bowl, especially at the expense of Peyton Purity and the Broncos.
