The Patriots are in the Super Bowl today.

I watched the Raiders game, which they were supposed to lose, over at some friends' house. After Brady lost the ball on that last drive in the fourth quarter I got my boots on and was all ready to go drive home on the slippery roads, greeting people goodbye and looking for my keys. Adam said, "Don't you want to watch the replay decision?" kind of half-heartedly. So I did. Moral: always watch the replay decision.

Then, last week, I watched the Pittsburgh game, which we were also supposed to lose, at my father-in-law's house. He used to have Patriots season tickets in the 80's, but he could never get anyone to go sit on the crowded aluminum bleachers in Foxboro with him so he sold them. We jumped around and screamed a lot, and basically enjoyed ourselves. Moral: the Patriots always beat the Steelers in the AFC Championship game.

We're gonna lose to the Rams. I can feel it. #
