New England Patriots Ready to Play SBXLII

The atmosphere was more family picnic than Super Bowl preparation for the New England Patriots on today as the team enjoyed a brief stop at the University of Phoenix Stadium. The Pats did not have a walk-through, as promised. Instead, they spent a fun hour with their families, interrupted only by a brief team photograph session — this according to my final Patriots SBXLII pool report from fellow PFWA member Dan Pompei. Head coach Bill Belichick said:
“This is what we usually do. The first year was a little different because of the short week. It was just a one-week Super Bowl. The last three, it’s been good. It gives the families a fun day.”
I love it. Coach Belichick said “This is what we usually do,” as though it were a regular occurrence for him. Then again, with four trips to the Super Bowl in the past seven years, I guess it is.
