Patriots’ Day??? More like Patriots’ GAY!!!
Today is Patriots’ Day in New England. And as a testament to the fighting spirit of the revolution, the New England Patriots aren’t going to let something as minor as losing the Super Bowl detract from the marketability of an undefeated season.
The fearless muckrakers at The Smoking Gun reveal that not only have the Patriots not abandoned their quest to trademark “19-0” since the Giant Snatch, they have amended their original application. Before we dismiss this legal wrangling as mere wishful thinking on the Patriots part, maybe they know something we don’t. Maybe the stinging defeat at the hands of the Giants caused Bill Belichick to redouble his resolve to build the Patriots into an unstoppable gridiron juggernaut that will finish the 2008 season without a blemish. Or maybe Belichick has added Doc Brown and Professor Peabody to the coaching staff and plans on tearing the space/time continuum asunder. Only time will tell.

“Presidents’ Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day and Veterans’ Day are four distinctly American tributes to liberties, freedom and democracy, commemorated by a holiday in the United States.”
And for some reason Boston thinks they’re so special they can have their own day? I don’t think the fucking Revolutionary War was fought just on Boston Common. Fuck these guys.

“It’s like the Sopranos - It’s over, find a new show…”
When the fuck are the Massholes going to give it up?

Or maybe they’re tired of other entities capitalizing on their success. One blog made enough money selling “Gay-Triots” shirts at $5000 a pop they could afford to bring in Sage Rosenfels as a feature writer.

in fact, after the British pulled out of Boston on St Patty’s Day 1776, Boston and all of Massachusetts were ignored the rest of the war, yeah that’s right, done contributing before the declaration of independence was even signed

Say what you will, but as a former Massachusetts resident (only for 3 years, not nearly long enough to Catch! Patriots! Fever!), it’s pretty awesome to have a day off work for the sole purpose of getting trashed while watching other people run 26 miles.

Hey let us not forget that it is also San Jacinto Day here in Texas… some say it’s a celebration of the defeat of Mexico (Bellichick was contracted because had good film on their sleeping patterns)… but really it’s just a big excuse for state employees to stay at home.

I’ll forgive Texas since it used to be its own country.

This is the day that sets the precedent for signal stealing the night before the big game.
Of course the spies were out and Paul Revere rode his horse “One if by land yada yada”.
And the Minutemen were ready on Lexington Green to lay the smackdown against the heavily favored British forces.
