Aw. No Super Bowl appearance for the Pats. They lost 28-13 in the deciding match to the Baltimore Ravens, who I now hate, even though they have a cute little bird for an emblem.
Still, I think the Pats can be proud: they did well to get so far despite so many injuries to important players. Get well soon, Mr Gronk! Keep that arm safe.
And, I know that boys don’t much appreciate this sentiment (if BH is any guide), but there’s always next year :)

Oh well... My 'Niners won (and Joe Montana still has four Super Bowl rings next to Tom Brady's three) so I'm happy...
ReplyDeletePenny, why does a good British girl like yourself follow the NFL?
ReplyDeleteBecause an American penpal is a Pats fan and he told me to follow it :)
ReplyDeleteI've always been rather easily led, Aunty. I should probably post a few more school memories on that subject, now I come to think of it...
I'm happy for you, smuccatelli :) But we'll have less of the Tom Brady bashing, thank you.
Once easily led and now leading a little band of your own students in Miss Hasler's English class.
ReplyDeleteThe Pats have appeared numerous times in the Superbowl...
ReplyDeleteI think their fans are spoiled, it was due time they get a spanking!
(but I still like Wes Welker a lot)
Ah, so the Pats are kind of like Manchester United? (They win everything every year). I'm afraid I'm a real football noob, Alex, so I don't really know any of the wider context or history.
ReplyDeleteThat's a scary thought, Aunty! ;)
Hardly Brady bashing. I like Tom Brady, he's a local boy (we're both from Northern California, in fact the same county) and I was glad to see him successful (being married to Gisele Bundchen doesn't hurt either) but Joe Montana is my favorite quarterback of all time and I don't want to see him eclipsed by anyone.
ReplyDeleteSo there! ;-p
