Once and for all, tomorrow we will find out if Tom Brady is God. A perfect season? Totally Divine in nature. I may have to retire if the Pats win.On a more serious note, I hope the players don’t thank God because they caught the pass, kicked the field goal, or ran for a touchdown. I find that crass, and really quite pathetic.Go Pats.
