I recently posted a comment regarding an extremely important decision
made by one of the most experienced people charged with the
responsibility of providing leadership in our country. I was shocked
and at a loss to understand the reason(s) for the decision. I felt it
was an early sign of developing incompetence, perhaps due to age, but
the negative ramifications of his decision were, to me, not excusable.

However, some with a much better understanding of the complex nature of
the situation than I and of the available options at the time have
educated me as to why the decision was made and caused me to realize I
was wrong.

Belichick did the right thing kicking off in the overtime period.
The Pat's offensive line, indeed their whole offensive squad are
playing with numerous injuries. The defense squad are healthier,
playing a better game and, if they had been able to hold the Jets
scoreless for one possession, may have been able to give Brady good
field position or provide for a field goal.

Someone once said that the road to hell was paved with good
intentions. :-)

This will probably turn out to be the most discussed call of the
season. Some, perhaps trying to put the best face on the loss, have
actually made the case for electing to kickoff based on past
statistics.



I would rather it is done like in College. Each get a try, unless the
first scores a touchdown. No just get it to field goal range.

When I am waiting for 60 minutes to start I wish they would just toss
a coin and the winner wins. ;-)


Almost like soccer!
