well...  it hurts... but not as much as in previous years... we weren't robbed by the refs  and we weren't knocked out by the bottom seed...  and it hurts less when you have the ring... kind of cushions the blow.

that being said this did not look like a team who really wanted to win... we had NO pass rush... i'd rather lose to the charger in a tight one than have our asses handed to us by the pats as brady sits in the pocket and finds moss all day... in the end the loss of freeney and probably mcfarland killed us..

and i agree with the comments about rivers being a total jackass... i hope the league fines him for his behaviour

and i also intend to avoid football for a while...the only way i would watch the superbowl is if green bay gets in, since it would be nice to see favre win... but i really don't want to listen to the patriots ball washing that goes on...  

i think we really need to draft some more pass rushers.....

and will you patriots fans bugger off and stop gloating.... it gets really old and i have no respect for the kind of cheating you team has been  caught at..

leaves us to cry in our beer and commiserate alone...
