hey kids-
it’s moving day tomorrow – yes, AGAIN – so lets do this. it was a way more
exciting game than anyone anticipated, but our patriots pulled out a victory
against the colts. i was surrounded by annoying people last night who kept
saying things like “i need gronk to get 167 yards!” or “the patriots better beat
the spread,” to which i replied, deadpan, “i need the patriots to win by one." there was
only one happy person in town last night, and it was me. what are you gonna do
without me, san diego?
our fearless quarterback went 23 for 37, with 312 yards and three lovely
touchdowns. sadly, he also suffered his first interception of the season when
brokenfingered julian edelman bobbled a pass that went haywire and got picked
off. i bet julian’s more upset about it than i am, and i’m pretty freaking
upset. nevertheless, this is the part about tommy, not julian, so let’s look at
him. that’s pretty much how I felt about the whole thing, too, tommy.
i wish all the people who wanted to give away my totw last week would tell
me who to give it to this week, because i really don’t know. i liked jamie
collins’ blocked punt (onside kick - is that still a punt? i think so...) move,
but he missed a ton of tackles last night and i’m loathe to give a totw to a
defense that gave up 27 points to andrew luck. i think that might be more than
he’s scored cumulatively all season. mccourty had a really solid game and
several near-interceptions, but again, 27 points to the colts! amendola had a
surprisingly big game with 105 yards – and that might be more than he’s
accumulated all season, so let’s give it to him. i can’t find one single danny
amendola photo from last night...which kind of makes me rethink my decision. i think maybe i’m supposed to be giving this to lagarrette blount. oh wait – here
we go. run, danny, run!
i’m tired of writing this now and want to have a glass of wine and watch
the good wife before the big day tomorrow, so pretend i said something clever
about the facing the jets on sunday.
have a great week, and go pats!
love dav
