    Fast Times at Foxboro High. For a franchise with a rich history of success, they certainly have conducted themselves like a bunch of pimply faced high school boys with the rule book over the years.

    That's how I feel. I don't envy them their success. They've earned it on the field. It's how they conduct themselves as an organization. They've been smug and arrogant for years, just like their fans. They don't have to steal opponents' signals or deflate balls to win, but they do it anyway because they consider themselves above the rules. I don't hate them. Heck, I don't hate anybody. I don't even begrudge their dominance of the Colts. That's on the Colts, not New England. I just find their arrogance annoying, and I'm enjoying the fact that they've been called out by the league and by the court of public opinion.

    Brady ordered a bouncy house for a kids' birthday party. Two children were hospitalized with broken ribs due to low pressure! :twisted:

    Appreciate the compliment, Terry, but Tom is responsible for the above witticism. :)
