surfpup Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Normally I would check "Don't care.. I'm here for the food and drinks". Instead it's gonna be... "Don't care cuz I'm on a bus full of 8th graders headed to Washington, D.C." - Pray for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zigzag Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Pretty sorry ending to an -otherwise- good game. Seatle should fire their OC immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Scales Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 A (no doubt dumb) question on this from ignorant Aussie if I may - I don't know much about gridiron (as its known here) apart from that a team called the Patriots usually seems to win. I think the only league we have in Australia (certainly on TV) is state based and the players are all women in lingerie (which is cool), but anyway.... Â Seattle is a town/city right?, and New England is what - a group of several states? .. how does that work and how they do areas get split up into teams? (the city team vs one state team vs several states team 'rule' of however it came to be) Â thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in a few cases they represent an entire state, as in the Minnesota Vikings. The Patriots seem to play for the entire East Coast north of New York. Even though their stadium is right outside of Boston. Don't ask me why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L8_4thesh0w Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Its just a branding/fan-base motivational issue. New York has Giants & Jets & Buffalo Bills. Pennsylvania has Eagles & Steelers. Patriots are located in Foxboro Massachusetts but get a larger audience with the rest of New England. Vikings were mentioned & Arizona & Tennessee have that same broad contingency. Then there are the Carolina Panthers with 2 states; North & South. More fans makes it easier for a young team to compete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveinspain Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 They used to be known as the Boston Patriots, the team changed its name from the original Boston Patriots after relocating to Foxborough in 1971, although Foxborough is a suburb 22 miles (35 km) away from downtown Boston.

Cougar Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Pretty sorry ending to an -otherwise- good game. Â It was a good game. At least it wasn't a runaway. It sure started off slow, but that 29-second drive to a touchdown at the end of the first half was pretty impressive. Then, with less than 2 minutes left, the Seahawks on the brink of winning, aaaaahh! what an anti-climax! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 New England is what - a group of several states? Â New England is Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine. Â for guys who like pictures.. Â It's more of a "term" for the north east than an formal "state" or I guess you guys may think province? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skilsaw Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 The last 2 minutes was some of the most exciting and unexpected football I have ever seen. The poor seahawks quarterback will have nightmares for years to come about throwing that interception when it was second and goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis G Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 One yard to go to win, 3 downs, one time out and a running back whose nickname is Beast, and you PASS the ball? One of the dumbest calls ever, and why I like the Seahawks, but not PC. Just sorry to see NE win again (actually Seattle lost, NE didn't win).
