Grateful for prayers for Nate

Hi guys, Amy here.  Today I'm grateful for all the loving souls in the world who are praying for Nate's speedy recovery.  My dear friend Nate went in for surgery last week and when we talked the night before his procedure he said he'd call me on Friday, anticipating a quick recovery.  Unfortunately his recovery has become quite complicated and he's still in the hospital struggling to heal from an infection.  After all of this is over, he will undoubtedly tell me a story about someone who did something positive for him in all of this (and extra points for you if you're guessing it will be about a cute nurse!).  Rather than waiting for his next "Grateful" post on this terribly outdated blog (it's been a tough year for all of us, me and Nate included...), I'm posting about my gratitude for YOUR love, prayers and support for Nate.  He needs us and he deserves us.  Please join me in sending prayers and GRATITUDE for Nate his way tonight.  And please post comments on this blog entry to leave him a note to read when he's home SOON!

Love you, goofball.  Get well very, very soon!

My thoughts on the Superbowl...

I'm getting sick of hearing that the Giants are the better team, they stopped us, this and that!

A safety (Brady's fault) and then NY gets the ball right back and scores making it 9-0. First quarter over and we had one play. A terribly thrown pass to Gronk led to an INT (Brady's fault.) Dropped passes by Welker & Branch that would have iced the game. More dropped passes by Welker & Hernandez on the final drive when time ran out.

The Pats forced three fumbles, but the Giants recovered two of them and the third was nullified in the Pats red zone because they had 12 men on the field. The Giants scored a few plays later.

I give Eli credit for the game winning drive and a circus catch by Manningham but the fact is the Patriots GAVE THE GAME AWAY! The Giants did nothing spectacular in that game.

What hurts the most for us New England fans is knowing that we SHOULD have won!

Ok, rant over.
