Pats Fans welcome

[TUM301]

On a side note for N E fans or really anyone old enough to remember, what`s more improbable these Pats coming back from 25 in last night`s Super Bowl or the 1986 Mets comeback game 6 against the Sox ? As a refresher, in 86 the Sox, trying to erase many decades of misery, were up 3 games to 2 and 5 to 3 I believe with 2 out 2 strikes and NOBODY on in the bottom of the 9`th. The entire region was literally the real "Walking Dead" the following mourning.

Thanks for the reminder. I believe several times during that inning the Mets were down to their last strike.

Not only down to their last strike, the center field scoreboard at Shea had the message Congratulations Boston Red Sox, 1986 World Champions, before Carter started that rally.

The ultimate example of Yogi's aphorism.

Prediction: in two weeks time we will learn the Patriots had been filming pre-game drills or perpetrating some other "unwritten rule" just like they've done in the past.

93 PLAYS! That's like something out of Texas Tech

Holy cow, that game was a roller coaster! I'm glad New England won, but I can't help but think of the ending scene from Patton.

What a great game. We host a Super Bowl party every year, and even with score 28-3 nobody left early.
For those that shut it off early they missed a dandy.

I like that someone stole Brady's jersey. Where was Ruben Rivera?

It was the bottom of the 10th, the Red Sox had scored 2 runs in the top of the 10th.
