Not all Favorites...And there's more of course.

Desmond Howard. Fuck. And while the Pats were in the game the entire time, the last INT by Bledsoe. Fucking Fuck.

Brady with his hands on his head shaking his head in disbelief.

Brady screaming when Butler intercepted.

Edelman Catch.

Jason McCourty coming from downtown to break up Cooks catch in the endzone.

Gimme Five...........................................................................................times four


2000 through 2020 The best twenty years of Patriots football in my lifetime.

Suffered through Gimme Five times eight from 1960 until 2000.

Now suffering through Gimme Five from 2020 through 2025.

That's a total of Gimme Five times thirteen.

Yeah the Brady scream was great and it was hard not to put the Jules catch on my list

 

[nefansince75]

If ranked in order...

1. Butler pick, come on now, it has to this as the Pats were about to lose their third SB in a row with the help of a fluke play.
2. Final series of SB XXXVI
3. Pat beginning SB XX
4. Pats beginning XXXII
5. "HE'S IN!"

 

[cheerupcharlie]

1). Adam Vinatieri’s game winning kick against the Rams
2). Butlers interceptions and Richard Sherman’s reaction
3). James White OT touchdown run
4). Jules miracle catch
5). Julio Jones incredible catch on the sideline

 

[NWPATSFAN]

In no particular order.

The Tyree bullshit helmet catch with Rodney all over him, after Manning getting out of the grasp. The dude had something like 6 catches all year and was never heard from again. F#@!

Jules catch, simply incredible concentration and skill.

The Butler interception, only made sweeter by watching it with a house full of Hawk fans.

Richard Sherman's reaction to the int. I can't stand that douce.

Everytime Brady hoisted the Lombardi after the victory.

Against Rodney too that's what kills me.

If your not sure, ask Asante. He was right next to him watching.

 

[NWPATSFAN]

If your not sure, ask Asante. He was right next to him watching.

True, but that's funked up.

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Unpopular opinion, but I don't blame Asante.

He leapt, and it grazed his finger tips.

How many incredible plays have we seen? From the immaculate reception, JEs catch, Tyree catch, Butler interception. Some of the greatest plays have changed the outcome of the SB.

In case you're interested. NFL Network is showing all of the past Suber Bowls in order today. I'm taping the Patriots first five. Looks like the last one will be the OT victory over Atlanta. Just thought you all should know.

 

[YankeeRebel]

1. Detail my own car

2. Create my own rubs

3. Stay up past midnight

4. Handouts to the street people

5. Work out regularly

Too bad I don't have NFL Network. The one channel I miss from ditching DirecTV.

1. Detail my own car

I still wash, but when it needs a detail my son gets recruited. He started at the local Ford dealership in the detail shop for a summer job between freshman and sophomore years of college. essentially changed his trajectory. He is now a service administrator for there "Pro Shop" which is all fleet vehicles and super duty trucks. He is making fucking BANK now and only taking half his course load so that he will graduate a year late.

2. Create my own rubs

I still do mine, but I only have 1.

3. Stay up past midnight

Yeah...that.

4. Handouts to the street people

Nope. Not since I offered one a gift card to McDonalds (that he was hold his "Hungry" sign next too, and he replied "I don't want that fucking thing".

5. Work out regularly

Ehh...


5.5. Eat Sugar.

I try to avoid sugar and fried foods but damn they put sugar in every damn thing

Right now I am on a 6 week metabolic reset diet.

Ground beef, browned with butter.
Ribeye.
Sirloin, with butter.
Chicken thighs, not boneless/skinless. Eat the skin. Once a week.
Salmon, in butter. Once a week.
Eggs. Lots of eggs.
Bacon. Lots of bacon.
Broccoli florets, summer squash, zucchini.
Garlic.
Avocado.
Coffee, with or without ghee.
Water.
Salt and pepper.

Sounds like a lot but think about it.
Every morning is bacon eggs and avocado.
Every lunch is ground beef with chopped garlic and squash/zucchini with garlic butter
Dinner is steak 5 days a week with chicken once a salmon once.

No snacking.

First two weeks I cheated. I had a couple Medjool dates with peanut butter in the morning and a handful of cashews in the afternoon.
First week I dropped 6 lbs. Second week I dropped 2.
I quit cheating and I dropped 3 1/2 last week. I know Medjool dates are loaded with natural sugar, so that's on me.
3 weeks left and I am aiming for another 10 lbs. I will then start adding back in natural sugars, Apples, Bananas, Berries. Maybe Yogurt.
AND CASHEWS!!!


One of my 2025 goals was under 200 lbs, which would be a 19 lb drop since last fall or 27 off my heaviest.
If I hit that in the next 3 weeks I will reset my goal for 2025 to be under 190.
I also set a goal of a half marathon in under three hours. We'll see what my knees say about that with less weight pounding on my knees.
