We had quite a bit of rain today ... I'm thinking a half-day tomorrow at work allowing for a little football.
I won't be rooting for the Seahawks, but rather, against the Pats.

This piece by Bryant Gumbel on HBO's Real Sports is a sobering illustration of what the game does to people. Sobering stuff. I've been following this awhile. I saw another video featuring similar problems with other players of the same era. The Cowboy's Tony Dorset found himself at the local shopping mall with no clue as to why he was there or how he got here. I hate to be spoilsport on Super Bowl Sunday but the fact is, the NFL isn't too many steps below what the gladiator sports in the Roman Colosseum was in terms of human cost.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Well, we were closed for the morning, but the trails dried up so I'm here until 5:30 or 6:00, but I should be able to catch the second half at my mom's party. 
I am thinking that this ball distraction will hurt the Pats tonight. I also think the Seahawks don't like that spector of cheating even with no smoking gun and are going to be more motivated to win.
I'm thinking that if an aggressive Seahawks defense can get pressure to Brady, the Pats will flop hard.

Brady never seemed to be arrogant to me up until this ball gate, both him and the coach seemed himmy and hawey while smiling. They seemed to be fishing for explanations. It really has been the type of press conference when the cat has swallowed the canary. I've seen the same look after baseball players deny using steroids, or NFL players denying off field antics. And a President in denial too about a blue dress. No smoking gun so cant really punish them now, but just is striking me as really weird. 
Patriots by six.
