Patriots set all kinds of league and franchise records in 59-0 blowout vs Titans. Boston Herald. I set a record at Gillette Stadium, too. Least time spent at a game.

In the high-tech era. Take it away, Mark Steyn, “Monday Morning Quarter-Backtrack,” and Andy McCarthy, “So Much for the Post-Racial America.”  ESPN: Bogus Sharpton/Jackson smear campaign gains yardage on Rushing. Rush Limbaugh to withdraw from a partnership to buy the St. Louis Rams due to his status as a negative publicity magnet. OK, that’s not exactly how ESPN put [...]

I’m not a huge sports fan, but I like a good story line. New England Pats have one. Pats get a win over Favre’s Jets with Backup QB Matt Cassel, underdog in for an injured Brady, in his first start since high school. Cassel finally gets some respect. Boston Herald’s Tomase, Cassel stands tall:

It’s a win-win, if you plan on spending March Madness on the couch anyway. That’s the Oregon Urology Institute’s advice.

Here’s Hitler, Cowboys fan (YouTube, with a nod to Instapundit),  enraged that Tony Romo, like a Teutonic hero of old, allowed himself to weakened by a yodeling, curvaceous Lorelei.
Now some Pats fans are wondering whether another Teutonic sprite, the Bundchen, cursed them last night and brought low their tall, dashing, indomitable hero, so cool in the midst of strife. Boston Herald:

I was thinking I ought to try to convey something thoughtful about the profound meaningfulness of Super Tuesday. You know, civic duty, American way blah blah blah. But then I saw Director Blue already had.

Kicks off early with a play by Moss galpal. Herald’s Guregian own Moss interview had a little more than the pack got. Battery or gold-digging? Too early to tell. But Brady’s throw-to guy says we’re going to laugh when we find out what happened:
