As a Broncos fan, I'm way happier this year when they got knocked out early, as opposed to the fiasco of last year. If you don't win, I think its much better from a fan standpoint to not even be in the StupidBowl. I can't even imagine what it was like to be a Bill's fan in the nineties.

I do believe that Brady should toss the keys to his MVP truck to Butler.

Or Julian Edelman who was playing with what the NYT said was a pretty obvious concussion. (he had also missed the last two games of the season because of a previous concussion)

Way to risk the rest of your life for the big game...

Who would want that truck anyway ? A Chevy Colorado-gimme a break.
Butler wouldn't want it either.

Speaking of the Chevy Colorado... can anyone actually explain this commercial to me?

I just do not get it, at all.

Chevy...black...cool and tough - creating an emotional impression that it's not just for laborers. Bet that result came out of a focus group.

More direct than puppy commercials for beer companies.

Unconventional ... for corporate America.
One guy in corporate attire going back to the office at end of day in a non-descript import sedan, while other guy in "office casual" is finished with work and drives away in an off-road version of "Eco-friendly" truck. Could have the girl too if he wanted...

Which do you want to be? ... ah marketing ...

This is the best article I've read thus far. You should read it and for sure check the picture they have where they saw what Wilson saw - every QB would have thrown it. Butler was just that good.

http://www.slate.com/articles/sports...tom_brady.html

Botton line. TB did great on coming back. BB was a genius for not calling a timeout on 2nd and 1. Butler knew the play, saw it and out played the receiver.

Butler had been beaten on that play in practice and remembered what he needed to do to not be beaten. That's the kind of football brain a certain coach should really appreciate.
