INDIANAPOLIS — Elite and Eli. One and the same.
Super Bowl
Feeling sorry for Tom Brady would be foolish. The NFL’s model quarterback has a supermodel wife on his left arm and a right arm that has produced three Super Bowl wins.
Tom Brady was one of the last ones out of the shower, perhaps hoping extra hot water would help take the sting out of a crushing Super Bowl loss. In a nearly deserted New England Patriots locker room, he sat, wearily pulling on his boots, the pained look on his face never changing.
It was a Super Bowl Sunday with a familiar feel to it, and not only because quarterback Eli Manning led the underdog New York Giants to a dramatic victory that came down to the game’s final play.
The zip lines are a huge hit, and Madonna seems to excite everyone. Hosting the Super Bowl has given local politicians a chance to puff out their chests, show off their beautiful new stadium and declare this is a big city after all.
Apparently, Bill Belichick is running lower on brain power and Tom Brady’s man card is expiring. A high percentage of the betting public no longer respects the New England Patriots’ greatness.
He can name the three Kardashian sisters, and he has the most talked about body part at the Super Bowl. There’s a billboard in the Boston area touting his “party” line and a “Party Gronk” song enjoying a run on the Internet.
INDIANAPOLIS — He plays offense. He’s won at least two Super Bowls, and he was the Most Valuable Player the last time the Patriots won the NFL championship.
If New Year’s Eve is the Strip’s biggest annual event, Super Bowl weekend runs a close second. But when the New York Giants and New England Patriots face off next weekend, don’t expect to find any Super Bowl parties on the Strip. Nada. Not one.
