On a more serious note..it's been what? A week? Not a single sole has stepped up to volunteerthemselves nor shove anyone else into the line of fire..

Congrats Lefty, the new commish of MBBRL, and Tlance, the new (and 1st ever) co commish
After they initially stepped up it was unanimous (unless I missed a post) that they were shoe-ins for the job. Doubt anyone would want to throw their hat into the ring after seeing all that.

Thanks to all you guys - hope we can live up to the confidence you have shown us. .... we will give our best shot to continue the awesome MBBRL tradition !! Hopefully with the new Constitution in-place for all to see, our job will be relatively easy. ....

Normally, I'd take NE over just about anyone. When the rubber hits the road, Hoodie and Brady almost always find a way to come out on top. But watching the Falcon's play over the past couple of weeks, leads me to believe they have more than a legit chance. .... the defense has stepped up and the offense has been unstoppable. Can they do it one more time - I'm gonna go on a limb and say yes.

Even given the smoke and mirrors of NE's D, those smoke and mirrors far too often work. I wouldn't bet against the Hoodie finding a,way to neutralize Julio, and minimize the run game enough to give Brady and Co. more than enough chances to stay a score ahead the entire game.
Don't want NE to win, but that's who I'd bet on

This is my reasoning as well... Hate it, but its all too true. The NE coaching staff, from top to bottom, is far superior than anyone else in the NFL.

So I (much like 80% of the country) didn't want New England to win, but I'm not really a Falcons fan. Can't imagine what that game would have been like from a Falcons fan's perspective but I'm guessing it would have been brutal. Also can't imagine what the guy that bet $1,000,000 on the Falcons went through since not only did they blow the whole thing, but since New England scored a touchdown in overtime they also covered the spread. Hopefully he's at least still alive.

I'm assuming that if someone can afford to fork out $1mil on a bet that, win or lose, he's still well-off.

Well, a good friend of mine is a life long Falcons fan, born and raised in atlanta.

During the first 3 quarters, he sent a few celebratory texts and even a couple memes mocking Brady and Belicek. As the Patriots drew nearer, he got pretty quiet. When the game went final, this was his final text:

"I just want to crawl into a hole right now"

I think that pretty well summarizes the night for a Falcons fan.

Not just the fans... the players fell for the #1 cardinal sin. Do NOT celebrate a win until the game is over and you have more points than your opponent.
