Although it would be insensitive to use violent rhetoric this week, I have a few wishes for Sunday…
- I hope the New England Patriots get so caught-up watching stolen Jets film that they forget it’s game time!
- I hope the New England Patriots eat a bad batch of baked beans and tainted scrod at their team dinner.
- I hope the New England Patriots are detained by Sgt. James Crowley while entering their own homes Sunday.
- I hope the New England Patriots throw their backs out shoveling their driveways.
- I hope the New England Patriots have to wait at home Sunday for the cable guy.
- I hope the New England Patriots have to appear in court Sunday to make their child support payments.
- I hope the spleens of the New England Patriots spontaneously fall out of the bodies.
- I hope the New England Patriots slip and fall on a really big banana peel. That would be so hilarious!

go Patriots!
And as a true New Englander I hope Rex Ryan doesn’t choke on a toe ring before game time.
And as for #6 I have one name for you: Cromartie. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_Cromartie#Personal
Enjoy the game Gary.
Congratulations Gary. I’m looking forward to spring training now.
You will like this gary. As you know I am a hugh Steeler fan – sort of a native – since I grew up on the south side of Pgh. Though the thought of a 7th super bowl ring for my Steelers sounds wonderful, I won’t mind seeing you and Jets rejoice on Sunday night!
