Boxing Day Blues For The Bills: Patriots Pummel and Pound

This is my first visit to Sonny McLean’s since Thanksgiving and it is my last visit for 2010. Wish Andrew a “Merry Christmas” (guess it should have been “Happy Boxing Day”) as I head to the booth. I see that Jen is working and Grant, the new owner, is also here. Rich arrives and comes over for a chat. His says his Christmas was good as his son gave him hiking boots with custom-forming insoles and a Patriots hat and Rich gave his son an iTunes card and some Wii games. Rich is still in search of a new television. Rich leaves when Andrew shouts that his “breakfast is up” and that’s the cue for me to order my usual Sonny’s breakfast with wheat toast and luckily Jen passes by the booth at that moment. The bar is filling up and even the darts area has people in it. In fact two guys who are sitting in the darts area ask to take two of the chairs from the booth because they don’t like the high stools there. Understandable. The Sonny’s breakfast arrives, but alas there is no cut-up fruit today – the only truly healthy element of the meal besides the tomato and even that is fried! The Buffalo Bills have a bit of joy in this game against the New England Patriots – they are on the scoreboard first with a field goal in the first quarter. Sadly for the team and its fans, that is Buffalo’s only score in the game. New England answers the field goal with a touchdown and the point after. Although at the end of the first quarter the Bills are still within striking distance, the Patriots break it wide open in the second quarter, scoring seventeen points to the Bills zero points. At halftime the score is Patriots 24, Bills 3. Buffalo contributes to its own demise by having seven turnovers over the course of the game on which New England capitalizes. The Patriots continue scoring in the second half. The final score is the New England Patriots 34, the Buffalo Bills 3. With this win the Patriots have the best record in the AFC East and obtain a bye from the first round of the playoffs. Also Tom Brady now has the record for most consecutive passes thrown without an interception at three hundred nineteen. A very Happy Boxing Day indeed!
