Congrats to the New England Patriots! The newest dynasty in football. Now let them prepare for the fate of dynasty's past - San Francisco, Dallas, Washington - where are they now? As one commercial for the NFL Channel put it - next year is a blank slate - here comes the Raiders.
Another congrats is deserved by the Oregonian for carrying a commentary by James Lileks on the front page of its opinion page. What's next? The dropping of regular pieces by Maureen Dowd or Molly Ivins? I can dream.
By the way my favorite Super Bowl commercial was a beer ad. It was the one featuring men and women of our Armed Forces walking through the airport being cheered on by the citizens they protect. Let's make that happen.
