Goooooo Patriots

I am soooo psyched after Sunday's game.. We are in the Super Bowl. WaHooo go Pats... now since so many of you know that Lee is so NOT a fan of any sport you will not be surprised to know that he fell completely asleep right before the game started (and Preggie here had to clean the kitchen alone) and didn't wake up till it was over. But you will be surprised to learn that Monday morning he asked me who we are playing in the Super Bowl... I didn't even know he cared... awwww (big fuzzy moment). Love you sweetie and it's the Giants (I was secretly wanting the Packers) and the Patriots are going to win. I hope. A 19 - 0 record for the season would be so awesome.. the only thing that will make the day complete would be that my Cousin J has her baby the same day (but after the game please Maddie - I'll buy you a really nice present).

Now I need to tell you all about my day in Boston on Saturday with my mom. We had gone in to Boston to do some business (that didn't work out for her). So we wound up taking a walk from Downtown to the Fanueil Hall for some lunch. Decided to go to the Cheers replica set. It started out as a good idea and could have ended sooo badly. First off we noticed lots of cameras from one of the TV stations.. Hmmm what could be going on? While going to our table we figured it out... Charger fans were in town and they were there in droves. No sooner were we seated and 3 Charger Fans were also seated... right near us.. typical tourists since they had cameras out and were taking many pictures. Then the guy at the table next to us started.. obviously a Pats Fan. We weren't feeling any warm fuzzies from the Charger fan table. We were trapped.. I started looking around for a place to hide (and was silently thanking myself that I hadn't worn my Pats shirt like I wanted to - I wore it for the game instead). Thankfully we didn't need to hide or dive bomb another table since the Pats fan finished his meal and then went over to the Charger fans to make nice before leaving. But the whole rest of our meal I was constantly worried that a fight or something else would break out since we kept hearing the Charger fans cheering away and singing some sort of song (is there a Chargers fan song of some sort? and do the Pats have one?). Even the wait staff was on alert. Everything turned out well and everyone stayed calm but in my mind.. I was worried.

After the game was over, Mom called me and asked if the Chargers fans went back to Cheers for a nice helping of Crow for dinner.

I'm watching the really early news (5am) and I just saw a Patriots commercial (ok it was for WBZ4) and I loved the ending (it shows the 3 other Super Bowl wins and then highlights of recent games) with 18-0* and the * is for One more to Go (a play on the NY papers having an * next to our record this season with the * being for Caught Cheating). I love the Pats but I can barely wait for February 3rd and the game to be over. I need a break from sports till maybe April when the Red Sox start up again.
