Brady was human. The defense bent but didn’t break. They found a way to win. 18-0. WOW.
Brady can’t be happy with his performance and I expect the Superbowl will be a different story.
The MVP of the game has to be Kevin Faulk. It just goes to show if you shut down Moss, he’ll find Stallworth, [...]

The Beginning
I have been struggling with this blog thing for a while. I have never been a “journal person” although I always had good intentions. Notes are scattered all over my life. Maybe, just maybe I will be able to begin anew.
