OK, here we go! You know what I think. You know I think Tom Brady is the best football player on the planet. You know I think the Patriots bend don’t break defense is the best in the Biz Markie. And you know what they say, nobody beats the Biz. You know I think Richard Seymour is the most unheralded player in football. You know I think Troy Brown makes plays. You know I think Assante Samuel got stiffed by the Pro Bowl. In my heart of hearts. In my heart of hearts and in my little pea brain, I truly feel the Patriots are the better football team.
Everybody was yammering about Lights Out and the Chargers’ D. Everybody was jabbering about the frugal Ravens’ D. Well, I’m still standing better than I ever did. Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid. I’m still standing, giving up a franchise record-low 237 points, an average of 14.8 points per game. Ranked second in the league in the only defensive statistic that matters. First and ten, do it again. C’mon offense go, go, go! Know this my friends, the Patriots are the AFC’s leading scorers in these playoffs. They average over 30 points per game. Scoring in bunches. Scoring in droves. A slew of scoring. Enough scoring to beat the Colts. And lest we not forget, Mr. Tom Brady. Mr. Tom Brady, with the strength of ten, ordinary men. He knows no fear. He knows not of pressure. Brady has led a fourth-quarter comeback, on average, once every 3 starts. He does it all the time. It is what he does. You remember. You remember Super Bowl XXXVI. You remember U2. You remember it was all tied up with 1:30 left in the fourth quarter. You remember there were no time outs. You remember John Madden saying the Patriots should run out the clock and get into overtime. You remember what happened. Three straight completions to Who Shot JR Redmond. 23-yard strike to First Down Troy Brown. 6-yard toss to East Boston’s own Jermaine Wiggins. Spike. Field goal. Ball game. Patriots win! Patriots win! If you do remember all that. If you do, how can you bet against this cat? Top Cat. The indisputable leader of the gang. He’s the boss, he’s a pip, he’s the championship. He’s the most tip top, Top Cat.
Peace out homies. Six Two and Even! josh q. public
