Pats are Parading around Boston

[MissMillie]

How much fun is this????

[Sandpiper]

1. Tom Brady's pal

George W. Bush must be so proud.

[Loonman]

4. STFU

Please.

[StopTheMorans]

6. well-stated

[Sandpiper]

7. Nope

[StopTheMorans]

8. alright, if you want a dignified reply, here goes:

Brady was invited to the SOTU by Laura Bush as a guest. He didn't declare any political affiliation, nor did he say anything afterwards that would lead one to believe that he supports Shrub. Or is this just sour grapes over the Pats winning again?

[Sandpiper]

11. I'm not a fan of of the Pats

Or the Panthers for that matter. Therefore I don't feel the need to defend Tom Brady for being Bush's guest at SOTU.

Or is this just sour grapes over the Pats winning again?

Paranoid are we?

[MissMillie]

13. Didn't your mamma teach you

That if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all?

[DS1]

16. wouldn't that logic eliminate 60% of DU

/devil's advocate :7

[MissMillie]

17. Maybe

but certainly there's no need to attack each other over a fan thread, is there?

[DS1]

18. nope

They earned it, let them parade!

/coming to you live from Framingham

[StopTheMorans]

14. so why the need to trash him then?

petty, are we?

[Sandpiper]

19. I'm not fond of

FOB (friends of Bush). Even if they do happen to play for the home team.

But, I'll refrain from further comment because there's really no point to keeping up this conversation. Enjoy your victory celebration.

[Loonman]

20. "look at me, look at me"

Go indulge in your pathetic cries for attention on another thread.

[Sandpiper]

22. ...

[DS1]

23. funniest thread of the day

:7

[MissMillie]

24. It was just supposed to be fun

But apparently some people don't like to see other people happy.

[Catherine Vincent]

32. LOL!

[Loonman]

33. That means the poster is almost number one

Or is offering a perch for a pigeon.

[KamaAina]

28. Brady looked about as pleased to be there as...

...if he'd just thrown an ugly pick in the end zone. Here it looks like he's taken polite applause lessons from Hillary Clinton:



Wait a minute, he did throw an ugly pick in the end zone... all's well that ends well, I guess...

Also in attendance at SOTU: Indiana Fever (WNBA) star Tamika Catchings.

Shall we now dogpile on the Fever? (No sense dogpiling on her alma mater Tennessee; as a Conn. expat, that's pretty much my lifestyle :-) )

Edit: I'm having as much trouble with smileys as Brady is in the picture...

[StopTheMorans]

2. not much if you're sitting behind a computer in Waltham

:)

[MissMillie]

3. WCVB has live streaming video (n/t)

.

[StopTheMorans]

5. thanks!

[Loonman]

9. Surfin'

[MissMillie]

10. I love that you really get a sense that they are truly appreciative

of the fans.

This team is amazing. Bellichick said it best: they won 15 straight and not one of them wants to take credit for it.

I sure wish the Bruins had the gumption to go for a championship.

[Braden]

31. sadly I dont think the Bruins are even close

about five years ago they were on the brink. With Pat Burns coaching Bourque at the end of a storied career Thornton as a rookie but they have done little to dramatically improve.

at least we can get used to a super bowl or two more down the road!

[skippysmom]

12. Had a good laugh this morning

Was watching channel 7 as I was getting ready for work, and they interrupted the program with a special report -- on the parade. I'm thinking war -- and it's the parade?!?!?

Anyway, the ed commissioner sent out the word to school principals that under no circumstances should kids be let out of school to go to the parade. And the reporters were shocked -- shocked! -- to see that there were kids at the parade. With their parents in some cases.

Oh the horror!

[MaineDem]

15. It's on Sportschannel or whatever that's called

Looks rainy but happy! :)

[MissMillie]

21. WCVB live broadcast

"a sea of red, white and blue that is absolutely amazing"

Tens of thousands of people

"People are at least 10 or 20 deep all the way, up both sides of the road"

[Blue-Jay]

25. A parade of PATS?

I'd like to see that.

[Loonman]

26. The Boston websites are running really slow

Must be a ton of people on the live streaming.

[ScreamingMeemie]

27. I thought that read "Pets are Parading around Boston"..hehehe

enjoy it MissMillie, one of my favorite Pats fans ever!!

Hugs,Laura

[MissMillie]

29. Really glad they mentioned Harrison

He's not there because he's having surgery on his broken arm... but he definitely was an integral part of this team.

[MissMillie]

30. on the parade route....

[Loonman]

34. Holy smokes!
