It wasn't cool that Brady's daughter was insulted by a radio host. He was suspended.

I listen to WEEI during my morning and evening commutes. Their evening shows are fine but the morning show often uses offensive language. there were a few instances in the past some other hosts were suspended due to offensive language. This kid does not have his own show, he goes on other shows as the 3rd guest. Maybe he thought his path to success was creating a stupid controversy like the others on that radio.

  He fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is "never get involved in a land war in Asia", but only slightly less known is "never go against Tom Brady when the super bowl is on the line"

Pats nation is licking their chops in anticipation of a win. And the Eagles relish the underdog role

[X Factor 1,110]

Here is an interesting quote

 

"On Super Bowl Sunday investors should be rooting for an Eagles' win, at least for the (potential) benefit of their portfolio. Since 1986, the average annual return on the S&P 500 after a Patriots win has been a meager 1.5%, according to data from LPL Financial. In their losses, the Patriots have managed to help send the S&P 500 up about 5.1% through the end of the year. A bizarre phenomenon, but the Patriots have to been to eight Super Bowls since 1996, a pretty decent sample size, though the indicator is hardly definitive, of course."

The Dow fell 665 points today, hopefully that means the Patriots will win.

As long as each team scores at least two homeruns each, I don’t really care who wins.

  Well dang, you really can't bug TBone for recycling jokes anymore. You've got some mileage out of that one.
