The new Alliance of American Football (AAF) kicked off Saturday. While social media is giving the product some love, I can guaran-darn-tee you nobody in the six state area known as New England cares. Well, at least not Patriots fans. After dining on lobster with the Pats, theres no appetite to munch on sea urchins […]
My former WZON co-host Pat Spekhardt started a lively Facebook debate last week. His contention: the Tom Brady era is amazing but not as impressive as the Bill Russell era. As often was the case on our old radio show, I feel the need to set him straight. Let’s be clear out of the gate. […]
It’s not like the Patriots play in the Super bowl every year… Oh wait, they do? Well, still, theres no time like the present to to hear some energetic, unique opinions and takes on the Patriots win and Superbowl LII. Join me as I launch Sports Chowdah Radio with lots of Patriots stuff. LISTEN HERE […]
The Patriots just won their 6th Super Bowl! Since I have no shot at sleeping any time soon, I think I will bang out a few “takes” about our World Champion New England Patriots and Super Bowl XLIII. Next to the win over the Rams 17 years ago, this was the most surprising big game […]
It still knocks me for a 10-yard loss in the reality check arena when other fans whine and belly ache about a certain dominant team because they’re so jealous and bitter about its current success. How the heck did my team — a former laughing stock I knew better as “The Patsies” while growing up […]
Looking back from the end of the last Superbowl, to today, this just might be the most impressive Patriots season (year) of all time. Not the best season. We had 16-0. Not the most surprising season. That was the 11-5 year of 2001-2002 resulting in the first Super Bowl win. But if you look at […]
In my multiple conversations about the Patriots in the playoffs, I told everyone I wanted Bill and boys to face the Chargers. I was afraid of the Ravens running QB, and I really dislike that franchise. They have a statue of Ray Lewis for Pete’s sake. Plus I like the Pats chances against a warm […]
All of us loud mouth, blow hard, sports types make predictions. But most of us don’t have the testicular fortitude to go back and see if they came to fruition. But not this Carnac. I can admit when I am right and make lots of excuses when I am “wrong.” Let’s flash back almost four […]
“The tradition of Festivus begins with the airing of grievances. I got a lot of problems with you people and now you’re gonna hear about it.” Frank Costanza Before we gather around the aluminum pole to take part in the Feats of Strength, in the spirit of the holiday I’m going to air a grievance […]
Yes. That is a BAD loss. For so many reasons. Not just the way it ended. Which by the way was historic. No team has had a single scoring play of at least 69 yards to win a game that way since 1970. So, rest a little easier knowing it takes magic to beat the […]
