From Tom Curran...

"I said something to (Belichick) after the game," Randall Godfrey said to NBCSports.com. "I told him, 'You need to show some respect for the game.' You just don't do that. I don't care how bad it is. You're up 35 points and you're still throwing deep? That's no respect....
"You look at all the great head coaches ... I'm just disappointed," he said. "You gotta show some class, show some respect. Joe Gibbs? We wouldn't have done that. Bill Walsh? You wouldn't see those types of guys doing that stuff. I've never seen nothing like that. Most teams, you get up like that you sit on the ball and try to run the time out. They're up 30-some points and they're throwing deep. That was blatant disrespect. I hope we can see them again, definitely. You don't see Joe Gibbs doing that. You can't even imagine that kind of stuff coming from him. Joe Gibbs. Bill Walsh. Bill Parcells. This isn't like college going for power rankings. This is the pros you show some respect, show some class."

Randall, this isn't your father's NFL. Since being called out as cheaters and criminals, the Patriots are out to prove that they can beat every team...into the ground...over and over again. The Patriots are on a mission not to just succeed but supercede every team in NFL HISTORY. This team will be a disappointment if it does NOT go undefeated. They're averaging 41 points a game and would be averaging more if we didn't see appearences from Matt "King of the" Cassel and Matt "Who is that??" Gutierrez.

On behalf of Patriots nation, Randall, we're sorry you got torched. We're sorry that you're the latest speedbump on the way to setting countless NFL records. But, most importantly, we're sorry that YOU forgot what it means to be a pro. Do it on the field. Don't like the Pats scoring 52 points? Stop their first team offense...or their second team offense!

Everybody and their moms called out the Pats and they are answering the call. They aren't exactly a monster that you have created, but, rather, one you have thrown a big juicy steak in front of and rattled the cage. The league's "most classy" individual LaDainian Tomlinson even called out the Patriots...well, after week two, he isn't saying anything now.

New words to to be invented to describe this team. The New England Patriots of the Kickass Conference (a one team conference, they're in first place by the way) are mega-destroying every team in their trajectory in order to superprove they are the crazyking of the awesomecrop here in the Patriots' Football League.

Don't worry Randall, the pain is over. I suppose you could have a shot at revenge in Arizona in February, but I'm sorry to tell you, these Patriots have their plane tickets booked already.

World Series thought coming soon enough.

Sox over Angels in 5.

- It will be more of a struggle and a nailbiter than Sox fans originally thought. These are the two most complete teams in baseball top to bottom. Don't expect any late inning comebacks against this Angels bullpen. Will J.D. Drew continue the relatively kinda, semi-warm streak he's on? They'll need it, offense is still lacking on this team. Does anyone else think its weird that the Sox kept three catchers on the roster when Tim Wakefield is too hurt to play in the first round? Yeah...I found that a curious decision by the boy wonder. Last time in the postseason against the Halos, the Sox pulled of the sweep en route to a World Series win. This road will prove much tougher.

Yanks over Indians in 3.

- What have the Indians done in the postseason lately? Exactly. What have the Yanks done in the postseason...forever? Exactly. If the Yanks played in the same division as the Mets, they probably would have won the division by 27 games, all of which would have been gained in August and September. What about the Yanks pitching staff? It will do...there's enough firepower to cover up the fact that Roger Clemens and Mariano Rivera are collecting from the AARP. BUT the year 2000 looms large and A-Rod will have to hit over .650 with 22 home runs in 19 at bats to even have a SHOT at pleasing Yanks fans in this postseason series...can he pull it off? I dont know...but the Indians are toast.

Arizona over Chicago in 5.

- In case you slept through the postseason or looked too long at the Padres, Arizona won the west...and the NL's best record. A very underrated pitching staff and a good mix of players. Arizona looks like a winner...alternatively the Cubs look like...well, the Cubs. Is it just me or do the names Soriano, Ramirez, Zambrano, and Lilly SCREAM "Choke!". If that's not bad enough, I got a Ryan Dempster to show you. The losing tradition continues...and this time, a fan won't be to blame.

Philly over Colorado in 4.

- A very fun series, indeed. Neither of these teams have much experience to speak of here. But, Chase Utley and Jimmy Rollins are two of the game's best pure hitters. This Phillies team has suffered through more injuries than ANY other team in the postseason right now. They are STILL withour Freddy Garcia, Jon Lieber, and Tom Gordon. They're scrappy and they DESERVE to be there. Colorado will be burned out after the maraton Monday night and won't be able to rebound. Rox fans, Larry Walker is not walking through that door. BTW, turning point of the season? Trading Byung-Hyun Kim to the Marlins on May 13th...they were 16-22 at the time of the trade...hmmm...
