Need an image makeover? I do.

All I have to say about your criticism of the pats and Brady: SUPER BOWL CHAMPS, BABY!!! I just don't think they would have won it all if Bledsoe was there the whole time. Things just "clicked" with Brady. I do agree Parcells is a great coach though, always liked him...nothing's funnier than watching him snap at reporters at press conferences.

Slappy

You're getting sloppy slappy! You didn't read my post very carefully man.
I never criticized THE PATS. . . I'm a Pats FAN. I just don't like KRAFT.

I LIKE Brady. I was cheering him on just as you were in the SuperBowl and the run up to it. I just happen to like Bledsoe more, probably because I had been cheering for him for a lot of years. We can't know for sure what the Pats would have done if Bledsoe was restored as quarterback when he returned from his injury. You're probably right though, Brady was really on a roll!

RE Parcells

Their were some reporters who didn't like it that Parcells wouldn't kiss their butts. If they asked him a stupid question he'd tell them it was a stupid question! Now ain't that refreshing! . . . . Because his record is unassailable they have had to resort to petty sniping at him.
In some cases they sought out a few whiners on the Patriots who felt that Parcells 'picked on' them.

RE Joe Torres

Patiodog, I don't believe you said that. Shocked

Torres is a class act and a great manager.

This from a long-suffering (ie. fifty years) Red Sox fan.

Okay, let me see if I can summarize yesterday's activity -

kiss and cry area
go Pats!
it's pronounced Cle-mat-is
jjorge lives in Little Rhody
Kraft sucks (the Pats' owner, not the macaroni and cheese dinner)
Brady, not Bledsoe
Bledsoe, not Brady
synchronized swimming sucks
something about Joe Torre

That about everything?

No, not disappointed, just sorting through 'em.

Oh, I thought it was a rebuke and i couldn't figure out why.

Lo siento.

Hey... synchronised swimming sucks, but... it is fun to learn how to do some of those moves. The vaseline on the teeth.... ick... the waterproof lipstick..... ick... the vast clorinated pools, filled with eye-burning steam....ick....

Yet, learning how to swim backwards is a feat for which I am justifiably Proud.

Knowing how to do surface dives? Priceless!

Being able to collapse like an anemone and knowing how to pronounce it? Precious!!

oopsie -- that would be with an aitch... CHLORINATED

Don't the synchronized swimming gals set their hair with clear gelatin to keep it from falling down? I remember hearing that somewhere, that you put your hair in a bun and then instead of hair gel or whatever (which would come off in chlorinated water), you douse it with clear gelatin and let it set.

A jello mold for the head. Plus vaseline on the teeth. This could be macho, in a bizarre way, like, um, I dunno, something. Can't think of a good comparison, actually.

Sorry that sounded like a rebuke earlier. Wasn't meant that way.

A jelly mold for the head.

Hey! I don't know about this jello mold stuff! We wore rubber helmet things that pinched your ears. Mine had yellow fringes. I was also about eight.

Maybe you wore a jello mold but don't want to tell us . . .

Uh-oh Beth...

Originally called the water ballet, synchronised swimming is yet another aquatic sport invented in Canada.

I see a movie development deal in the works. Piffka and I fly in from the Planet Synchro-Swim (with jelly molds on our heads), which terrorizes poor ehBeth. Then Phoenix removes her mask to reveal that she's really Slappy, who then removes his mask to reveal he's Phoenix. Then peppermint patiodog and margo wait in the kiss and cry area to have words with the only three men who can save the world: Brady, Bledsoe and the colon-less Joe Torre. The movie ends with the adorable yet tough jjorge jumping out of his pumpkin in order to save the day by hurling clematis at the invaders.

I foresee a blockbuster! Sweetheart, get me rewrite!
