Are you a football fan, I just moved to the Boston area four years ago so I got kind of sucked into that. Funny, the author of the Game of Thrones compares the Patriots to the Lannisters.
gpt
Lol, I am a Vikings fan. Patriots are a great team but I can see the resemblance lol!
human
I agree, my wife loves that show. Me, I'm average on it. I actually lived for 49 years in KC and had season tickets at Arrowhead so the Chiefs are my team. Ironic that Bill Bellichick won a playoff game as the Cleveland Browns head coach in 1995, and the Browns haven't won a playoff game since.
gpt
Wow, he is just a playoff winning coach. I think he is the most winningest coach in playoff history
human
I think you're correct, he is worshiped around here. I was a Fran Trakington (sp?) fan, but that will date me. You see where Gisele Bundchen doubles her husbands salary with her modeling earning, no ramen noodles in the Brady household.
gpt
lol that may date you, but you have all this experience and knowledge! I wouldn't work if my wife made that much lol
human
I agree, You see where Brady has that crazy diet that supposedly keeps him young and in shape, he's never eaten a strawberry in his life. Given his performance past 40 there might be something in that.
gpt
*eyes widen* I wonder if he is allergic or something because strawberries are awesome! I heard he was a vegan
human
Yes, well he's doing something right, though ironically Belichick puts him on the injury report every week. Why do you think he does that?
gpt
I think that is so interesting, I never knew that. I bet it is to psych teams out to have to work on playing against Brady and the backup potentially, what do you think?
human
I agree, or so they'll never know if he's really injured. Did you read where the average NFL game only actually has 11 minutes of live gameplay.  Given the violence and strenuousness of the game that may be a good thing for players bodies and better for commercials during the breaks.
gpt
For sure, I would have guessed a lot higher since games last like 3 hours, but for the safety of the players that is a good enough number
human
Did you know that the average Engineer makes more in his life time than the average NFL or MLB player, I guess all those whose career is shortened by injuries bring down the average from the big money players. I hope they have a good pension.
gpt
yea only a select few get that big paycheck. I bet these are the same engineers that make tracking chips that are in shoulder pads that track things
human
Yes, I read that. I can see why they track the bowl, but why do you think they track the players' equipment? Also, there's no rule against women playing in the league, I've seem some great women soccer players, you think there will ever be a female kicker?
gpt
I think there is a female kicker in the making. I just read an article the other day and it may happen sooner than later, that would be great i feel!
human
On the flip side of that, did you see where the New Orleans Saints don't allow their cheerleaders to dine at the same restaurant as the players? If they eating when a player enters they have to leave the restaurant immediately? That seem sexist and has the making of a law suit to me.
gpt
That is such sexism, I wonder what the other teams think of that or even if they know it is happening. Someone should speak up!
human
*raises eyebrows* In this day and age I'm surprised someone hasn't or a crafty lawyer addressed that. My inlaws are from upstate New York, you see the Bills are equal to the Patriots in Super Bowl losses (kind of Ying and Yang in my wife's family), they suffer up there. I know a bunch of my wife's cousins who love Jim Kelly from the 4 Super Bowl loss run.
gpt
*lips slightly parted* That was sad, they got 2nd place like so many years in a row I think. Kind of embarrassing, but also pretty cool they made it that far all the time. It was so nice chatting with you, go Brady!
human
Then again, my Chiefs last won when  Richard Nixon was President so we know disappointment too, but Patrick Mahomes has breathed hope back in the franchise. We actually went to our first game at Gillette out in Foxborough this year when the Chiefs-Patriots played and that was an amazing game in a loss.
gpt
yikes that is a long time. I think your chiefs will win it in the next 3 years. I am calling it! Have a great weekend!
