In this week's 10-pack for SportingNews.com, we pointed out that the folks in London might be familiar with the number of points that the Bucs might be scoring on Sunday, given the nation's proclivity for soccer.
Zero.
But instead of two or three points on the other side, the Patriots will have a much larger output. Though 59 probably won't happen again, 14 already are on the board, and the first quarter as of this posting still hasn't ended.
The first seven came via an interception returned for a touchdown by safety Brandon Meriweather. The next seven came on a 14-yard pass to receiver Wes Welker from quarterback Tom Brady, who according to one London newspaper is "the real golden balls."

That's almost as bad as the Pats players getting booed at the Pro Bowl in '07 following Spygate.

You're right. Players with criminal records tend to gravitate to the Ravens and Patriots...
I am sure their wasn't a SANE person on the planet who expected otherwise.
Florio's Lawyer (notice correct use of the apostrophe)...don't speak poorly of the Pats because they've, I'm sure, pummeled your team in one way or another. Instead, tickle your vagina and smile, cause they'll be back to ruin your day again...hahahaha...douchebag.
