The New England Patriots got absolutely fucking murdered by the Kansas City Chiefs. There ain’t no way to sugar coat that. While it looked like leaning towards business-as-usual for the defending Super Bowl champs in today’s NFL season opener, the Chiefs – behind QB Alex Smith throwing lights out – took them to school in the second half of the game, stunning the Boston boys in a 42 – 27 boilover.
More to that, Tom Brady looked like every single one of his 40 years, and had an uncharacteristically shithouse day, captured incredibly by this sideline shot of him looking fucking furious.
If the enduring Crying Jordan has taught us anything, it’s that sports fans will latch on to any display of mild saltiness from a superstar and turn it into an ever-flowing meme fountain.
And meme fountain it they did.
Hooo boy.

That last one. YIKES.
But as the old saying goes it’s far better than to show than tell, and as such:

*kissy fingers*
‘Course this could merely be the boot up the ass the Pats need to run roughshod over the rest of the season en route to yet a-fucking-nother Super Bowl victory come next February. But hey, when you’re as anti-Boston sports as any self-respecting non-Boston sports fan should be, you take the W’s when you can.
Brady wants to play into his mid 40s. That line doesn’t protect better he won’t make 40yrs and 6mths.
