Sincere Condolences to Non-Patriots Fans

Twelve straight years of winning 10 or more...  While others dream.

I feel sorry for the folks who love another team.

Patriots are 10 and 3 and, currently, in 1st;

Even after San Diego's Chargers did their worst.

Defense for New England did their jobs (and even more.)

Jamie Collins in your face can make it hard to score.

Revis shut opponents down and Browner laid them low.

Bad officiating stole a touchdown from us, though.

Browner hit a guy so hard that he coughed up the ball;

Hit was legal but officials made a bullsh!t call.

Browner used his shoulder - which is bound to leave a mark -

In the end, however, that provided us the spark

Which the Offense needed to go out and seal the deal.

Chances we'll go undefeated, here on out, are real.

I don't wish to count my chickens well before they're hatched,

But the teams we've yet to play are badly over-matched.

As one more Division leader loses to the Pats

All our former critics rush to offer their "Congrats!"

"They just beat the Lions without fielding Jonas Gray."
 "Best team in the NFL," most analysts now say.

Sunday, with a final score of 34 to 9,

(Thanks to the improvement in the Pats' Offensive line

And a brilliant Defense that turned Golden into lead)

I'm afraid New England might let praise go to its head.

Let's not tempt the sports gods now by gloating at our win;

Gloating, just like taunting, is a major sports gods' sin.

We've still got tough games to play before we reach our goal;

One more chance for us to go and win the Super Bowl

Thursday Night Football - Whew!

Patriots are 5 and 2.  Last night we beat the Jets

And I can be happy 'cause I'm not someone who bets.

For, although New England won, we didn't win by much.

Luckily the Defense, finally, came through in the clutch.

Didn't cover point spreads, though. We gave up lots of yards.

New York had no trouble getting players past our guards.

Any time they got the ball they marched it up the field...

But they, mostly, settled for the 3 points field goals yield.

Only one thing pains me now; I have to eat my words

Since I've said that Danny Amendola's for the birds.

Last night he did everything and did it very well.

Still, at least I'm not the Jets - whose season's shot to hell.

Dear Patriots... I Told You So

All the rain that Denver's getting? It's New England's tears.

Danny Amendola's out, confirming our worst fears;

When we let Wes Welker leave we made a huge mistake.

With 10 million dollars left to spend...?  Give me a break.

Looked like we could use him in the game I watched last night.

Brady's bullet passes dropped by rookies, left and right.

If it weren't for Edelman and Defense we'd have lost...

Should have paid Wes Welker what he asked and screw the cost.

  

Patriots need someone who can catch a Brady pass.

Welker plays for Manning and the Broncos now...  Alas. 

(deep breaths....   deeeep breaths)

I guess we all make mistakes; I'll live and just let live.

Even though I told you so, I'm willing to forgive.

The New England Patriots - An Ugly Win is Still a Win

Even though the Patriots hung on to beat the Bills

I'm afraid my heart can't take these kind of late game thrills.

If you didn't care who won I'm sure the game was great.

When you like New England though, these are the kind you hate.

Our Defense is 29th - that's out of 32.

Bills are not the first team to come back; there've been a few.

Thank gods for McCourty and Fitzpatrick's awful throw...

Up until the end he put on an impressive show.

Brady's looking sharp again; he's also looking mad.

Screaming at poor Edelman when he did something bad.

Maybe he should take his temper out on Safeties first.

Don't know why they cannot stop deep passes.  Are they cursed?

What is it the sports gods want? They've got my sweat and tears.

I guess we appeased them with the volume of our cheers;

Bills did not come back to win despite how hard they tried...

Late game interception proved the gods were on our side.
