In the last 10 years the New England Patriots have developed into a perennial contender.

Peyton Manning a Failure? It’s Just the Way of the Universe.

I’m not what some would call a very spiritual person. I don’t go to church. I don’t believe in ghost, psychics, or the afterlife. I think of all forms of religion as either a type of copping mechanism or a social group that makes it easier to meet a like-minded person to have sex with, [...]

By ⋅ February 3, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

To nobody’s surprise the offenses lit up the scoreboard in the 2010 Pro Bowl as the American Football Conference edged the National Football Conference, 41-34. It was a typical Pro Bowl.
