		<description>Good stuff here, Matty.  I like the way you wove everything together around the aspects of irony humour and history, good callbacks to that, really flowed well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suprised at no mention of Florence's headbutt, a move that cost his defense a stop, and as it went, his team the game.  Or Mcree saying he'd go for the INT again if he had the chance, because he wants to score.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Much is made of class in sports. But the fact is, whether you're Barry Sanders or Terrell Owens, winners dance. Losers bitch about class in defeat. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At first I figured LT was just frustrated and was venting post-game but I mean good fuckin grief the game was a week ago LT go work on your fuckin short game already and shut the fuck up. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whenever you have to pre-empt your post-game comments with "You all know I'm a classy guy, right?" next time just take a deep breath, look down at your facemask grabbing hands, lean forward slightly and simply say into the array of microphones "Forget it.  Nevermind." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now you're a little crybaby, the Pats are big bad bullies, and Belichick has to bring his kids down to the sideline so people won't confuse him with Kenny Rogers (the camera hurling Tigers lefty, not the Gambler.) I know Angry Bill has a reputation for being a  bit of a, well, prick. But Red Auerbach did too.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My father told me about this one time when Red was doing color commentary for the Celtics when Russel was the player-coach.  The game was in Philadelphia and with about 4 seconds left in a tie game, Russel called time out and as they cut to commercial, Red started screaming out a play over to the bench.  They came back from break and Red was still screaming out the play and who should be setting picks where and so forth.  The Philly crowd tried to drown him out by booing but Russel heard the play, called it, and the Celtics won the game on a last second shot.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beer, pretzels, and hot dog paper came raining down on Auerbach and he turns to face his tormentors and starts screaming "YOU'RE ALL BUSH! THIS WHOLE TOWN IS BUSH LEAGUE!" &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Belichick doesn't get paid the big bucks to be classy, he gets paid the big bucks to keep winning. They don't pay him to make out with his former employees at the 50 yard line after the game, they don't pay him to be nice to the photographers that get in his way and they don't pay him to command his players not to dance on other team's fields after they beat them despite everyone everywhere knowing which team is going to be rated better in Madden next year. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good shit Matty, lookin forward to whatever you got up your sleeve regarding or old pals in Blue with the blue horseshoe.</description>
