Here are 10 things we learned from last night’s season finale, which put the Patriots at 16-0: 1. The Patriots have heart. The real term might be pride, but whatever it is, they are overloaded with it. The Patriots played a decent game, but on both sides of the ball, they took control of the [...]
Moss, a wide receiver, isn’t playing. And a Patriot named Brady is out, too … Stop the presses! Wait a minute, that’s Giants wide receiver Sinorice Moss, who is inactive for tonight’s game, and the Patriot is, of course, tight end Kyle Brady. The list just came out and the only surprise is Patriots wide [...]
The weather outside is delightful … Really, the weather is perfect here at Giants Stadium, about 45 degrees, clear and without wind, which seems like a minor miracle this time of year in either Foxboro or East Rutherford, N.J. *** Hector Longo and myself drove down about 11:30 a.m. and caught some bad traffic before [...]

I will be blogging from the Meadowlands, Giants Stadium, beginning about 5 p.m. tomorrow. I will be working on the pregame inactives, weather report and any other assorted anecdotes. I will answer any questions you might have about the game or season. Just leave them in comments. Talk to you tomorrow.
Saturday night NEW ENGLAND 31, N.Y. Giants 13 … Records fall like Humpty-Dumpty Sunday’s games PHILADELPHIA 26, Buffalo 23 … Come down to the end TAMPA BAY 23, Carolina 20 … Close, but who cares? MIAMI 27, Cincinnati 20 … Win it for their jobs and Parcells GREEN BAY 31, Detroit 30 … Lions need [...]
One game away from immortality, at least in the record books. I can honestly say the Patriots-Giants game tomorrow night, which I will be attending (my pregame blog will start about 5 p.m.) at the Meadowlands, is the most hyped regular season NFL game I have ever been privy to. The Giants are along for [...]
It really has been a great year. And the Boston sports teams have been great, too. My best to you and your families. Remember the people out there less fortunate, without families. A quick prayer wouldn’t hurt. I will be back on Christmas night answering any questions or comments you might have. Merry Christmas.
Scott from Lowell brought up interesting topic as the Patriots get about three weeks off from the playoff pressure: Should the Patriots retire Troy Brown’s No. 80? This is a tricky question. I can go either way. What do you think?
Former American Idol finalist Ayla Brown, who plays basketball at Boston College, just sang the national anthem wearing a Troy Brown jersey, of course. Also on the scene of note are several Red Sox players, including David Ortiz, who is wearing a Laurence Maroney jersey (No. 39), Curt Schilling, who is wearing a Tedy Bruschi [...]

It’s official. Troy Brown will be playing for the first time in today’s Pats-Dolphins game which begins about 40 minutes from now. The Patriots wide receiver is listed as the third string wideout behind Wes Welker, the starter, and Donte Stallworth. What does that mean? Well, the Patriots are one touchdown reception away from breaking [...]
