Not everyone who roots for the Boston Red Sox is a New England Patriots fan, but I would venture to guess a lot of them are. That means when the NFL regular season got started last night, it was time to relive some memories many who share those allegiances had actively avoided for the last six months or so.
You couldn’t avoid them last night, as he Philadelphia Eagles began their title defense with plenty of highlights and mentions of their win over the Patriots in last year’s Super Bowl to be endured. Once the actual game started, the Eagles won, setting a positive note to their first season as defending Super Bowl champions.
