Boston's trips to conference finals since 2001:
#Patriots: '01, '03, '04, '06, '07, '11, '12, '13, '14, '15, '16, '17, '18
#RedSox: '03, '04, '07, '08, '13, '18
#Celtics: '02, '08, '10, '12, '17, '18
#Bruins: '11, '13
That's 27 in 18 years. Boston sports fans are spoiled.

Yup. I really hate all of these teams except the Patriots.

Peter King interviewed Brady after the game and Brady said they added 8 news plays on Sunday morning for the Chiefs. Game plan. I want coaches like that. Man Gronk played
97 snaps Sunday. Lions don’t add new plays until it is the off season on offense lol..

Kyle Van Noy sure is happy to be a Patriot after spending one season in Detroit. Man played in the Conference Finals and 1-1 in Super Bowls, and playing in his third super bowl in a row now.

I'm sure most ex Lions are happier once they leave. They are almost certain to have more team success once they leave.

My conspiracy meter is at a all time high. At least 4 of the refs from the Saints rams games have ties to California. Not sure if they all still live there. I think prukup, and cavaletto still do.


Bill vinovich head ref. Lake forest cal. Head ref.
Patrick turner Lakewood California head linesmen.
Todd prukup ladera ranch California. Back Judge
Gary cavaletto Santa Barbara, California. Side Judge.

I feel sorry mostly for the Chiefs lineman who lined up offsides. The game was there's.. Dang.

Blown call or not, NFL's replay system doesn't need an overhaul.
