There are many reasons that make being a fan of the New England Patriots better than any other teams in the NFL. There are many reasons, and the first is the fact that it’s so easy. Winning trumps all in sports, so it’s always more fun to support a winning team.

NCAA Football: Outback Bowl-South Carolina vs Michigan
February 26, 2013

In the fourth quarter of the 2013 Outback Bowl, Michigan running back Vincent Smith ran into the wall that goes by the name of Jadeveon Clowney. The South Carolina defensive end hit Smith for a loss of eight yards, and the impact was probably equally awesome, scary and hurtful. It was the hit of the season in the NCAA, and as I watched the replays of the collision with the helpless Smith I had only one thought in mind. Get Clowney in the NFL.

Charles Blouin-Gascon takes a minute to reflect on it all.

Not much was expected of the Boise State Broncos this season, but they still won yet another Las Vegas Bowl. Ho hum. Chris Petersen had a lot of holes to fill after a summer in which many of his top players moved on, but the decorated coach took on the challenge head-first and passed with flying colors. If you’re not already, it’s time to pay attention to the Broncos.
