New England Patriots go 16-0*

* Cheating aside, they did win 16 games. Awesome, eh?

OK, Patriots get caught for cheating against the Jets.

NFL responds with, "That's wicked bad. However, we won't make the Patriots forfeit the game, because Las Vegas bettors would probably kill us. Integrity aside, let's just fine the Patriots. OK? Great."

Pats finish year undefeated. I put an asterisk on that one. Bullshit.

As much as I despise the Pats, and will continue to despise the Pats henceforth, I gotta give it up to em.

Cameras or not, to go an entire regular season in professional sports without losing a single game, incredible. Before the Phins in '72, you have to all the way back to 1948 to find a team that's done it.

I'm hoping in the back of my mind they win three more games. Living in greater Miami, there's not a week that goes by that there isn't mention of the '72 team. They're geriatrics at this stage of life. As such, they come across as bitter old men at the mention of team that threatens their hallowed record. I've never seen a franchise live off its past like the Dullphins do. I'd love nothing more than to have the one thing they hold near and dear to be taken away.

On the other hand, if the Pats get knocked off, I'll take great pleasure at poking fun at all the Pats fans in my life.

Damn I love win/win situations!
