Yeah, that is bad luck.

Aw man, I wish I had known you guys were talking about the game. I would have joined in on the bashing days ago. Oh well, I'll just give my comment on it now.

I was a little disappointed that there weren't any BIG plays, but Eli breaking out of that pocket towards the end was definitely the highlight of the game. The Giants defense was riding Brady hard, I was proud. Never gave him enough time, sacking and rushing him, it was awesome. He's such a ****** bag. Giants Defense and Offense were on point!

Although I do feel bad for the Patriots, an almost perfect season... But my distate for Brady far outweighs any lingering thoughts. Plus the patriots have won the SuperBowl 3 times in the past decade (2002, 2004, 2005), they've had there run.

Oh and I got a 40" Sony HD 1080P Televison because of the game, woot!

[EARLBNY]

Sweet! That 40" Sony HD 1080P Televison must be awesome. Shiri must look amazing on a TV like that?

Pretty much. Only when it comes to sports though. Boston is a very nice city.

[Hell on Heels]

I'd like one of those tv's! Congrats!

I am official off to see the Counting Crows in concert with 500 of my friends at the Bowery Ballroom in NYC. Since last Friday I have seen the Crows 3 times and they are officialy on tour yet. I guess that is one of the many perks about living in NY.

BTW speaking of music I wonder if Shiri will be at the Grammy’s? I know she has nothing to do with music but I though it might be another opportunity to mingle with big shots and help promote her upcoming show?

Who know!! She was at the Tony's because she was invited by a friend. Maybe she'll be invited by a friend to the Grammys!! Now won't that be cool?

[ILikeShinyObjects]

Thanks guys, I love it... It's practically turned me into couch potato.

As for the Grammys, I watched and I didn't see her. Maybe pictures will turn up. That'd be sweet.

And for those that watched, any favorite performance, dress, etc?

[Hell on Heels]

The Grammys...The FooFighters gave my favorite performance. Kanye West was good but his attitude is so disgusting that I won't give him credit for anything. Someone needs to bitch slap him. He's such a whiny ass little baby about everything and so full of himself. JT should have won album of the year. He really got robbed. It was pretty boring so I didn't even watch the whole thing.

[Mr G]

I usually don't watch award shows - people giving themselves awards has never excited me.

But the I usually watch the Grammys for the music... not last night tho

[Area51Nut]

Miranda Leigh I completely agree, I know Kanye West lost his mother but can't he tone it down on the arrogance. I had to actually cover my ears when he started going on and on about how he was the best, I couldn't stand it.

[EARLBNY]

I was at a concert so I missed the whole thing. If I was home I might have watched it for laughs. I despise commercial music with the exception of the Counting Crows. I actually like to call it-processed cheese. Here is the cliff notes version of the show I went to last night. It was hands down the most amazing Crows show I have ever been to. The band was on fire. Every song was amazing. It was also great to not have Mr. Jones in the setlist for a change. I was standing right against the stage. I got hit with sweat and spit a handful of times. During On a Tuesday in Amsterdam long ago which is a new song I shed some man tears. That song featured Charlie and Adam. Charlie was on the piano and Adam sang. The song was haunting. I had the chills. Adam and Charlie took the song on a journey and were in another place. They closed their eyes and went for it. After the show I got to meet some of the band members before heading back home. Thank god for sick days because I did not get home until 4AM. It was so worth it. I can't wait to download a copy of this show.

Here is the Counting Crows set list from last nights show I went to.

Yep. He thinks he's the best thing since Jesus. He was totally using his mothers death as a ploy to the audience. He wanted to look like he was mourning her death and tributing her but I just got the feeling that he wanted everyone to think he's such a great son and so talented and used his mother to do it. He's disgusting, using her death that way. Everytime he opens his mouth I want to throw something at the tv. I liked Usher's little potshot comment to Kanye about everyone in the category being winners.

[Mr G]

I don't know about anyone else but I thought it was great that Herbie Hancock won best album for his tribute to Joni Mitchell. First jazz album since 1964 (Girl from Ipanema - spawned all that elevator muzak)

[Hell on Heels]

I loved that moment just because Kanye lost (sucka!) and Herbie is truly talented.
