Wonder if congrats are due to Max . . . over in State College. Of course the Mudcat Café itself is a Pennsylvania baby. |

But all I heard about was that fans took mattresses to the Museum of Art and tobogganned down those front steps on the mattresses. Whilst in Massachusetts, a cat burglar targeted the house of one of the New England Patriots team members and broke in while the family was away in Minnesota . . . |

Ya gotta love the lingo of sports. |

And Philly is the kind of city with great cohesion and loyalty in the followers and fans, regardless of how a team does. So actually I think it's lovely to see the victory go to Philadelphia, if only for the pride of the city and the sports fans. |

Touchdowns by the Eagles were met with cheers; touchdowns by the Patriots with silence. Fans have not forgiven the team that singled out concussion victims for especially rough treatment. |

One reason they wanted to move was that their apartment is in an unfriendly, conservative, stand-offish neighborhood. So they went to see the house for sale and saw that a neighbor had set up two lines of scrimmage in the yard - both lines consisting of plastic flamingos. They made an offer that same day. |
