I'm sooo money

I hate to brag but...c'mon, did I not predict the outcome of the Superbowl? See the post below:superbizzel. I won 2 hundo(like my boy Derek says it) when the Eagles cover the spread like I predicted...the Pats won by a field-goal like I predicted...the Eagles' D came up with a huge 4rth quarter stop that gave them a chance to win the game like I predicted...
What I didn't predict was McNabb choking in the final 5 min. of the game! Where was the sense of urgency? This is the Superbowl dude...you can't just casually walk up to the line like its just another game...I'll admit, he had a couple great throws...but you'll have to admit, everything else he threw were either ducks, low to the ground, or behind the receiver...he didn't have his A game at all...his poor play coupled with Andy Reids's mismanagement of the clock lost them the game...and let's not kid ourselves, the Pats played great but the Eagles had a good shot at the upset.
Who wants to talk smack about TO now? Wheres all his critics now? The guy played an amazing game, exposing the huge weakness in the secondary...don't know why they didn't go to him in the red-zone though...its all good though, the Eagles are coming back next year especially with how weak the NFC is.
Theres no doubt the Pats are a dynasty especially in this salary-cap modern era. Belichick ranks as one of the greatest coaching geniuses of all time right up there with the likes of Lombardi and Walsh. As an organization, I think they are the best well-ran team in all of sports(and this is coming from a huge Yankees fan). However, the one thing I don't agree with is the comparison of Brady with the greatest QB ever, Joe Montana. 3 in 4 is an amazing feat but not hall-of-fame material just yet...lets see how he does in a few more seasons... Brady is great but he hasn't actually put the team on his back and "won" them the game like Joe did time and time again. So until Tom does, lets not go there quite yet.
