'Three cheers for Tom Brady's realism,' Part II
Reader No. 1 has more on the Pats game yesterday, from the perspective of watching the showdown with his two daughters:
We had a hot debate at home in the final 2 minutes - after Boldin hauled in the big pass, I asked Daughter #2, "Looks like overtime, what do you think?" "Be quiet!" was her angry response.
Then - the "Oh My God" moment with Lee Evans and Sterling Moore in the end zone - for a flash of a second, you knew we'd lost horribly, except we hadn't. I like Sterling Moore's attitude.
And then Cundiff. And as he hurried on, I said - I swear to God - "He's going to miss." He just didn't look ready. And - I finally got a prediction right.
Daughter #2 found this game quite stressful, she is a big fan. For what it is worth, I predict a similar intense Super Bowl.... Boomer likes the Giants.
I share Boomer's sentiments. But what about Reader No. 1's daughters? What are their gut instincts about the Super Bowl? The local blogosphere needs to know!
