I’m wearing my Tom Brady jersey with khakis and running a 5.2 s 40 m at half.   Anything to not watch Adam Levine.

I don't have anything terribly formal going in the way of bets this year - I have $20 on the Patriots, and my mother took the Rams. I swept her in the conference finals, so I am already ahead $40 on this string of bets anyway.

Age is going to be a major theme of discussion-- McVay's (hey, did you know he's only 33?)  Belichek' (did you know he is exactly twice McVay's age?-- but they are good friends anyway) and Tom Brady's (did you know he's practically geriatic for a QB?)
