I was already sick of the words “Polar Vortex”, and “Snowmageddon”. And now as another blizzard has New England in it’s sights, well, I’m ready for summer.
My beloved Patriots are heading off to the Super Bowl under the cloud of another cheating scandal. For anyone who hasn’t heard, at issue is whether or not the Pats intentionally deflated footballs to give them a superior edge over the Colts during the AFC Championship game. No matter what happens, I think the media has come out the losers in this. Nevermind the overhyping of this story, “Deflategate”? Seriously? They couldn’t come up with anything better?
So. Since I’m totally disgusted with the news, this’ll be me for the next couple of days.

I think this year will be the first one I don’t watch, but it has nothing to do with the ball handling issue. I just hate Goodell and the way they run the league. Deflate-gate is a pretty lame name for the scandal though.

So thats what Deflategate is! Reminds me of the Ace Ventura film where they talk about “laces out” or something like that. The media like to hype everything up anyway. Its never a car hitting another car, Its a car “smashing” into another car etc. Reading always helps 🙂

I couldn’t agree more about being done with winter… If Toronto issues another “cold weather warning” I am booking the first flight out of here! Well.. Probably not… but I would like to think I would if I could.

I hope you didn’t get too much snow. I heard places around New England got about two feet! Luckily it went south of us, but I so agree I want summer already. The other day my friend said, “I used to make fun of old people who moved to Florida in the winter, but now it sounds like a good idea.”

I’m so glad it missed you. We have two feet of snow. It’s just everywhere. I really wouldn’t mind Florida.
