The Tampa Bay Patriots

Not the Super Bowl game I expected, but what a shocker! TB just shut KC down!

Of course, it was fun to watch Brady, Gronk, and AB execute those familiar Boston plays, but wasn’t the TB defense astounding?  I saw a stat that said Mahomes was pressured on 52% of his dropbacks: a Super Bowl record.  

OK – the KC offensive line sucked.  But TB OWNED them, RIGHT?

I was fortunate to be invited to a SB party at Kiera and John’s house.  Steve and Jane (my Beach Haven friends) were there; also my friend Barbara, whom you met earlier; and a couple I met for the first time: John and Candy.  Her salad was awesome!  

Outdoor entertaining at its best…comfortable, covered seating on a huge patio with built-in TV, bar, etc.  Enough food for an army: Yellowtail snapper, steak, chicken, salad, multiple dips, snacks, and lots of bevs.  Everything done perfectly.  These folks are all so generous.  And so kind.

I had to leave Guinness behind; he spent the night on a neighboring boat with another Doodle named Murphy.  All went well from what I’m told.

Anyway, not as much fun as Philly/Boston, but I enjoyed it.  “The Weekend”?  Not so much.  Everyone likes his music, I guess, but he’s not much of an entertainer, is he?  I have to say that I find his music AND his performance rather ordinary.
