Just Perfect

Just a quick one tonight,  I saw something during the morning sports coverage that always upsets me.  I would like to ask the following of television networks who employ former New England Patriots players.  This includes ESPN, NBC, and maybe others.  Please stop asking these players what it's like to be involved in a perfect season.  Now I am no Patriots hater. I think Bill Belichick is one the most versatile coach in football history.  His teams can usually do more different things than any other.  Their quarterback isn't half bad, either. Please remember, however, that they DID NOT have a perfect season.  Yeah, sure, they won all their regular season games, which gets you (drumroll, please) HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE!!!! Yay.  They lost the Super Bowl. Not perfect.  If you want to know about a perfect season, go get Don Shula, Larry Csonka, or as annoying as he is, Mercury Morris.  They are members of the only perfect NFL team.  It is hard to listen to them talk about it, but they have earned that right.

I did get a good laugh this morning on ESPN when the last item on Tedy Bruschi's list of what to do during a "perfect" season was to "finish what you start".  When we're you guys gonna get back together and finish that season, Tedy?  18-1 is not, and never will be perfect.  I know you networks have to have something to talk about, and the Packers are a little more than halfway to 19-0, but please stop. Just stop.
