I have to preface that I am a long-time,
long-suffering Jets fan, since they were the Titans playing in the old Polo
Grounds in 1961. The Boston, and now,
New England Patriots have been a nemesis since then.
Having says this, there are several observations I would like
to make.
Newsday,
the paper of record for Long Island, demanded in Sunday's paper that Tom Brady
had to "Prove It" (it's
headline and story) that he was the
greatest quarterback ever by winning the Super Bowl. If he did not, the implication was that he was all fluff.
Bill Belichick has
proven that even in the most ignominious, lopsided score, he didn't give up as so many
other coaches, who are in the HOF by the way, have done because it was an
embarrassment to them. Instead, he looked at his playbook and found an epiphany waiting for him. At
this point, he can do no more to earn his spot in the HOF.
Roger
Goodell needs to apologize to Brady, Belichick, Robert Kraft and to the
American people for thinking his opinions count for anything and just go away. He is wrong for this game. He is nothing more
than a circus clown, which I despise, in
a $600 suit.
And finally, congratulations are in order to the New England Patriots, who faced
a world of adversity at the beginning of the season, a 28 to 3 third quarter deficit and made history by mounting the greatest comeback ever in
post season and Super Bowl history with a 34 to 28, first time ever,
overtime win.
