It was a joke about how Belichick lists half his team as questionable with all playing the game in question. Thought that was beaten to death by now ... guess not.

Yeah, he's still okay to ask. But don't forget that Cowher guy.

no idea who to take this week. Leaning toward the Pats, but hard to pick against the defending Super Bowl Champs at home. What to do?

I'd go with the Pat's - Brady and all his receivers are in such rhythm right now, I don't think Sanders and the Colt's secondary will be able to touch them. Should be an entertaining shoot-out though with the highest ranked passing offense in the league against the top ranked pass defense. And I just read that Harrison might not be playing against the Pat's on Sunday: http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=090...o&confirm=true
That's huge.

Just occurred to me- the last three weeks Sports Illustrated's cover has featured the Pats, the Celtics, and the Red Sox.

Ahhhhhh....

I'm going to be shocked if the Pats lose. Those dickheads are just too good right now

I wish Belichick was coaching the Seahawks. I'd like to see them win games decisively because they're better than the other team.

Soon to be followed by a shot of the BC Eagles as they drive towards a national championship game.

Who knows, maybe the bruins can actually bounce back this year. I'm giving them a probational trial run, as I do every fall, and so far they have impressed. They are holding onto 3rd period leads, converting power plays, and actually taking the body every once in a blue moon. Hell, maybe they'll even make the playoffs.

Remember when we used to believe that being on the cover of SI was a curse for Boston Sports teams?

The Bruins are suprising now. They fight all the time, and though Buffalo came back last night, the B's held and won it in OT. Good to see a scrappy team not afraid to stand up to one of the conference's better teams and come up with a big (for November) win.

Remember when Nomar was on the cover and everyone was like "holy shit, hes defintely on the sauce".
