So yesterday was a monumental disappointment on several levels. I had never invested so much in each week of a football season, and compounded by the New England Vs the U.S. shit (from SpyGate to the Pats' arrogance to the widespread hatred of Brady, Rodney, et all) and the riveting subplot of "Perfection," this was a letdown of epic proportions.
So who to blame? Brady, for playing like shit? Josh McDaniels, for getting raped by the Giants' relentless D? Asante Samuel, for not corralling that would-be interception late in the 4th? Belichick, for wearing RED instead of his trademark gray?
No, blame the Boston Globe, for this abortion-in-print:
worst game ever...still bummed out pretty hard today.
ReplyDeleteI blame Menino and his bloody parade scheduling. Hubris.
ReplyDeleteI just overheard that the Herald had a ton of Special Sections ready to roll today and tomorrow, all related to "19-0." All that work, out the window. For the Pats and everyone else.
ReplyDeleteI thought I heard gunshots at one point, but yes, it was mad quiet on the usually rambunctious streets of Allston's Union Square.
ReplyDeleteThose gunshots were fireworks. Because, you know, that makes sense.
ReplyDeleteWell, Vanyaland has officially *made it*
