Well well… WELL. This being a Sunday afternoon, Hate Week is no more.

And yet, the Patriots are in the Super Bowl, again. No. 1 seed in the AFC against the Iggles, No. 1 seed in the NFC. Philadelphia is riding a weekend high, after the Hall of Fame selection of Brian Dawkins. And Terrell Owens; say what you will about T.O. (there’s plenty). The guy balled.

That was back in Super Bowl XXwhatever. This time around, Philadelphia has a damn fine roster, notably better than New England’s—in most positions. The one really at stake, well…
Tron Brady: what has NOT being said about him? I heard talk about his career thoroughly eclipsing those of all-time NFL greats, to the point that Brady’s true peers are in other sports—like Gordie Howe, Michael Jordan, or Barry Bonds.
The coaching: what has not being said about Bill Belichick. His assistants have been living the life, getting the Pats to the Super Bowl while being the presumptive new head coaches of the Clots (Josh McDaniels) and Loins (Matt Patricia). Losing to this Eagles team will not hurt their bona fides.
On the Philly sideline, QB coach John DeFilippo has gotten interest from several teams. Super Bowl host Minnesota needs a new offensive coordinator, so DeFlip can’t ask for a better Pro Day. The way Foles stepped aside around the pocket against the Vikings D in the last game bodes well for the coach and QB.
The focus on the Eagles has been on making a game plan that Nick Foles would execute without difficulty, putting success in the hands of Agholor, Ajayi, Blount, Ertz, and Jeffrey. They good. Shit, even Torrey Smith can still force a defense to account for him. So Foles has options, but the question remains: what will he do when confronted with the chance to audible?

Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, this guy,

has also been updating his résumé. He’s got a dynamite roster too, including Chris Long—who won the Super Bowl last year with New England. With LeGarrette Blount providing the debriefing for the Pats offense, I’d say the Iggles got prettay, prettay good mojo going into the game. A shame it’s played in the Birdmurderdome.

So the NFC aviary has been owned in Super Bowls of late, with the Pats doing most of the damage. Big deal. I think the Eagles break the hex, 27-24, and the promise of a New Era will carry us through the goddamn offseason.
Then again, this is New England. Any HATAHs might wanna try something stronger than alcohol.

Last day of the season! Let it out.
Patriots Halftime
– “Boy I wish we have Gronk active this game.”
– “He is active.”
– “He is?!”
– “Yeah, I am.”
– “Oh, well then lets just throw it at you a lot like we always do.”
Gronk probably ate like 5 Tide pods before this game
It would probably help if they sacked Brady at least once.
I don’t think NE has touched Foles, either.
that was expected.
Rage is building
Like a parent, I’m not even angry. Just disappointed
Now Gostkowski miss?
Like a knife thru warm butter.
Oh?
Gronk’d all the way
That gives me an idea for a Holiday post next year.
Well, technically later this year, but you know what I mean.
Pornhub did it.
Hehehehe
Well shit. Here we go.
GROOOOOOOOOOOOONK
Well that was entirely predictable.
Of fucking course
Welp, seen this one before.
This drive.

so the Eagles didnt plan on Gronk?
Except for birds in this case
I love that movie so, so much. It holds up, too.
Win or lose Tom Brady’s going to kiss his son on the lips after this game.
OK as long as no tongue.
even as an infant, I have never kissed any of my kids on the lips and that is JUST NOT OK, weirdo parents of hippie America
Yeah, Cris, we all know they’re not flagging /Gronk for anything.
Grrrrrrr, be blatant enough they call it once. I make $500, FFS!
That’s one optimistic bet, Sir.
Pays out 2:1, so I got odds. And they could call it on the Iggles and it still counts.
You’ll get it. Have faith.
THEY’RE PLAYING OUR SONG
This is why you surprise onside kick, assmonkey
fllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllloat
Aw, hell. The Pats are going Main Event John Cena on us again.
Half Time Over!
Oh god. The Gronk show
Needs more cheese curds!
So. Many. Floats.
Tom’s trying to get Gronk brained again.
like he needs one
The streaks lives! 22 years not watching the Halftime Show and counting!!
This stadium is way too cool to be hosting these two teams.
why do you think all them birds going Seppuku?
So….how many more commercials between the end of the halftime travesty and the game starting again?
I assume one of you will tell me when the P*ts retake the lead
The profanity will be a dead giveaway.
this Scientology stuff likes interesting. i’m gonna go and check it out.

I don’t what you all say, I love chunky Kelly Clarkson.
Alright, time for this evening’s next football game!
30 minutes left in the season

Kelly Clarkson went from winning American Idol to winning the Nathan’s Hot Dog eating contest.
I bet Kelly Clarkson attacks that craft services table with determination.
Some might say with Reidian enthusiasm.
Kelly Clarkson has somehow gone from never being known for being skinny to being known for being unskinny
hey, she got plenty of money. She can tell everybody “fuck right off, I’mma eat.” I can respect that!
The Ronaldo Optimum ad didn’t have him getting trucked.
I am enjoying these tide ads unironically
Okay, I CAN switch back from really raunchy 1930s music now, but not sure if I SHOULD
So…given what we know about Hollywood now, it has to carry over to the music industry.
Justin Timberlake has been raped numerous times just to get his first record deal? I mean that’s just a given at this point?
Yeah, more Tie Dads!
Is the (presumed) abortion of a halftime show over yet?
Shitty version of All Along the Watchtower, or shittiest version of All Along the Watchtower?
Jim is Jack Ryan? Nah.
Who knew that shagging Emily Blunt could make you such a beefcake?
Big Tuna
OK, I’m down for a Jack Ryan reboot.
Sounds like a great idea justin.
I’m gonna light something on fire so i can thank them in person
This is legitimately great.
I didn’t recognize a single one of those songs.
