Or Both
Im heading to Wisconsin this weekend. Going to work in WI for 3 months so I timed it right pity its not a Packers Patriots bowl. Was tempted to fly down to my friends in Foxboro but couldnt get cheap flights. Still thinking myself and my WI buddies to fly to Arizona to soak in the atmosphere 0 -

oh yeah it was defo bill who spread the nasty flu virus in the camp! lol
on the injury reports subject, its good that nothing mentioned about the ankle for brady, the injury report on friday will tell more though! but the shoulder one is not an issue i imagine, as he is always on the list for that.
hopefully burress wont be in top form cuz i reckon he has the ability to pose problems, he did in the final regular game and he has been playing very well in the playoffs
other then that, just hurry eli and we win, too many bad decisions and its game over
Bill is spreading the virus genius:D Im actually surprised no one has come on saying the Patriots are scum for making the Giants sick haha
One thing I noticed all week watching the pregame reports the Giants players in their interviews are being all cocky especially Burress as he went down that road of saying he would gaurantee beating the Pats:rolleyes: Alot of talk over the years about Patriots being scum etc etc but you do notice that none of the players under King Bill speak out of turn or say idiotic things not even Randy Moss.
Loved all the interviews this week and last week of the players saying the coach asked them to play QB when the reports of Bradys ankle came up lol funny Logan Mankins was talking about it and it was hilarious will try find a vid link his face is priceless:D 0 -

To be fair to Burress I don't think he guaranteed the win, I think he just threw out that the score would be 23-17 when someone asked him. No point in them being there if they don't think they can win so I don't think that's a big deal. Loved Brady's response though that there's no way the Pats would only score 17, if Burress had said 45-42 he'd have been happier 0 -

yeah it wasnt in the same league as the guy on the subs bench for the Steelers (Smith was it? cant remember) who guaranteed the Steelers win. If the Giants dont think they can win the Superbowl, then they shouldnt be there, so its nothing new that they can see themselves winning. Dont think any of them are coming out guaranteeing it tho to the same extent.
Build up really getting going now!0 -

Nah to me if you predict the game outcome with a score to me you are gauranteeing the win imo.
Burress has been cocky all week and what he should realise the only rise he will get out of the patriots is their fans:D Do you talking on the field Burress thats what I say. 0 -

not true really tho, I predict the Pats will win 35-24. Do I guarantee that? Hell no, I think the Pats will win, but thats a long way from guaranteeing it!
Agree tho about rising the team, its only the fans who rise to such things. Altho in saying that, Pats do note what the opposition say (take TO and the Eagles, Chargers last year, Steelers this year) so while they may not comment on it or any such like, they still have the everyone against us mentality and drive themselves on.0 -

Amazon are already taking orders for a Patriots 19-0 book.:eek:
Someones a bit cocky put there.:p
Friend of mine works for that publisher that made the book she is from MA herself. The book isnt completely finished just yet. The printers are ready to rock and roll though. And its was the publishers decision to release that book pre release clowns. Obviously none will be delivered until the book is finished and the game is over. I though it was hilarious when she told me:D
Im trying to convince her other friend to give we one of the Superbowl Champ t-shirts before the game also. She works for the local MA company that makes the t-shirts they wear when they win:) 0 -

I have had some experience in my work about how the book publishing world works - the club would likely have to have some involvement in the book contract re copyright etc. in some usage but the author could be working independently as regards the textual content. Having said that a book takes about a minimum of 6 to 8 months to put together. It's not arrogance that is driving this but just the book publishing business and the way it works. If they want a book then it would have to be prepared way before hand in order to get it out. If the Pats win they will go with the full winning season on the cover - if not they can still spin it another way and do a quick revision. This will only take days.
There are biographies of famous people in the wings - written and all set to go - just waiting for the subject to die before publication. This is how the book business works. Weird maybe to those on the outside but that's how it works.0 -

And what about the fans who have put orders in? Arrogant perhaps?
I'm not an arrogant Man Utd supporter because I supported them through the lean years, unlike a lot of others. Similarly, I daresay there's a lot more Pats fans than there was in 2001.
At the end of the day I've nothing against them though. I just don't want to see a team I'm not a fan of win 4 SB's in 7 years.0
