Horrible day in Boston

Old-patriots-logo_tiny by Justin_Bobo on


What a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day to be a Boston fan...

Star-divide

This day is going to stand out in memory for a long time to come. The epic fail of Jonathan Papelbon with just one strike left from going to game 4...after the offense finally awoke from hibernation. The epic fail of Tom Brady, missing wide open receivers and key plays all game, and too lose to Belicheck's mentee Josh McDaniels and the Broncos after holding a substantial lead as well.

Please...I pray for a day to come by and erase this bad day from my memory.

meh..

a) the angels were just a flat out better team this year.

b) gotta give the broncos some props, the pats had their chances, and the D didnt do its job. Fortunatley, this loss isnt going to be the make or break for the pats, unless the braylo decides to start catching balls.

In Kobe we trust!

Might as well have been...

…cost us the playoffs just the same.

or it was the lack of hitting and pitching throughout the series. It’s not really fair to pin the SERIES loss on paps, when no one made their pitches in important spots.
