Thanks for the note, Joe. And it's funny: the longer I'm here, the more and more I think the Pats are probably going to bury the Giants. Too bad they couldn't have played last week ...

Michael... the usual "terrific" column re: the Mets... With the addition of 
Santana to their pitching staff the Mets will be something to watch and 
enjoy.That staff could certainly become one of the best ever. I hope my favorite 
ball player, Jose Reyes, has a career year. Its really fun watching him at bat 
or on the bases..No one leaves their seat while he is doing his thing...Of 
course the Yankee fans ho hum Santana but if he had signed with the Yankees
they  would be yelling good bye to the World champion Red Sox..and bragging.. 
Michael..  I know its not your thing but I'm curious to  your pick  (score) for
the Super Bowl.. I believe the Pats by at least 15 points. Just  between "us
guys" I promise.. Your reader Joe De Pierro.. Happy Groundhog  Day.
