Funny that's what I said immediately after they awarded it to him during the MVP celebration. Brady has everything he could want in life including a multimillion dollar, multi-year deal. Butler is just a kid out of western Alabama who was an undrafted free agent so I'm sure he's doing okay but isn't exactly raking in the big bucks. Yes he's an NFL player and I'm sure he's doing okay, but just okay. He could probably use that truck a bit more than Brady.

The Starbucks picture is HILARIOUS! Comedic genius whoever came up with it! Ditto the auto-correct.

I still wonder if the plan really was to take the safety and kick it back to Seattle - I tend to think not. Give it to Brady for a quick short run or (more likely) a short drop pass. He'd been nailing those the whole second half and was on fire with them AND they're his staple anyway. I think the Pats would've gotten out of the end zone okay but obviously they were looking for one of Seattle's young, testosterone-juiced hotheads to jump and predictably, they did. Good call on Brady / Bellichick's part. Gave them more options.

I believe NE still had two timeouts and the decision by Bellichick to NOT use one was brilliant. A huge vote of confidence to his defense (he's always been a good defensive coach) and it paid dividends. Of course if it hadn't he's in a bad situation with very little clock time left, down by three (or four if Seattle went for two and got it - my suspicion is they would have) and about 20 seconds to get it down field. Tall order, even for Brady who is well-known for such "hurry up" drives and does them better than anyone else.

Hell of a game. I'm not disappointed to see some of the particular arrogant, classless and thug-like Seahawks players get a slice of humble pie to eat. Who knows, maybe it'll help them develop a little bit of class as they struggle with it emotionally (but more likely they'll go on angry rages and beat up their girlfriends or whatever knowing some of those guys...).

Who the heck was the woman who performed with Katie Perry about halfway through her performance? She was downright awful. That "music" sucked ass. KP's performance otherwise I thought was great and it's always cool to see Lenny Kravitz!
