If there is one thing I have learned from being a football fan for all these years it is this- It is not too often that your team wins a super bowl.\u00a0 Even when your team is as awesome as the New England Patriots, it is a rare thing.\u00a0 And you should savor that victory.\u00a0 You should enjoy it.<\/span><\/p>\n

So that is what I am going to do.\u00a0 I am going to enjoy it…and GLOAT!\u00a0 Lord knows if the Pats had lost the WHOLE world would be piling on right now about how they didn’t deserve to be there because they are cheaters and blah blah blah.<\/span><\/p>\n

You know who didn’t deserve to be there? the seahawks, hell according to spellcheck that isn’t even a word!\u00a0 Your crappy team barely even beat the Green Bay Packers, so you should have known right off you couldn’t beat the Patriots.\u00a0 The Packers are a lot like the Patriots, except stupid.\u00a0 There coach…get this…their coach was so damn dumb, he was right on the one yard line in the playoffs and DIDN’T RUN THE BALL!\u00a0 What a MORON!\u00a0 The only thing dumber than that is YOUR dumbass coach, who even though he beat the packers because they were too stupid to run the ball that close to the endzone…makes the EXACT SAME MISTAKE TWO WEEKS LATER! BWHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaAAAAAaaaa!!!!\u00a0 HAHAHAHAAAAhahahaAAAbwhahaaa<\/span><\/p>\n

WHAT A DOPE!<\/span><\/p>\n

I pointed and laughed before the ball was even intercepted because it was soooo stupid I knew right then and there they would lose some way , some how.<\/span><\/p>\n

I couldn’t be more pleased at the outcome of that game.\u00a0 You were winning and winning and then started to lose but then came roaring back…and it looked for sure like you were going to win right until , literally, the last minute. I bet you were all high five-ing\u00a0 each other and cheering after each catch on that final drive.\u00a0 With your little loser jerseys on, hugging a cheering and knocking over the nacho dip.\u00a0 whoo hoo!\u00a0 who cares about that dip! out team is going to WIN the SUPERBOWL!!!<\/span><\/p>\n

……and then you lost, and now the cheese is dried and coagulated and cold… symbolic of your hopes and dreams.\u00a0 It is sitting in a clump on the carpet, orphaned as you shuffled off, sick to your stomach , unable to even look at the couch you were sitting on or the beer cans you emptied as your team of losers lost in front of the whole world.<\/span><\/p>\n

I laughed and laughed!\u00a0 I saw coach dumbass on the sidelines after the interception take off his headphones and slump over like someone kicked him in the groin…and I laughed at that!\u00a0 It looked like he was going to cry! and I laughed at that!<\/span><\/p>\n

You know what else I laughed at?\u00a0 You probably didn’t know, and I am sure your dumb ass coach who was on the sidelines crying didn’t know, but you STILL had a slim chance to win that game.\u00a0 The patriots intercepted the ball on the one yard line, so they had to snap the ball into their own endzone…so they couldn’t just kneel down and run out the clock.\u00a0 You HAD a slim chance to still win.\u00a0 BUT…and here is why the Patriots are great.\u00a0 THEIR coach is an evil genius who takes NOTHING for granted, and HIS quarter back used a hard count and drew your team of losers offsides….tweeeeeettt! penalty!\u00a0 Five yards for my team! hahahahahHAHAHA!!!! What a bunch of SAPS!\u00a0 Who falls for that when the other team is in their own end zone?\u00a0 I’ll tell you who…the SEAHAWKS! Who the next play committed another penalty!\u00a0 This time for 15 yards.\u00a0 Are you doing the math?\u00a0 The Patriots marched 20 yards up field …while TRYING to just kneel down and run out the clock.\u00a0 You’re lucky there was only 30 seconds left or they might have been in field goal range by the time your team knew what the hell was going on.<\/span><\/p>\n

wow…you team BLEW IT!<\/span><\/p>\n

Not that they were ever going to win.\u00a0 Not that they EVER had a chance. Look at ALL the things that had to go their way and they STILL could not beat the Patriots.<\/span><\/p>\n

And the whole world knows it.<\/span><\/p>\n
