They do! 11 players in football uniforms and the line judge and field judge....

Hope its fun.

Wow, that is cool. I think we all would like a full report when you get back...

From what I hear and read, Shaughnessy is a bit of a pot stirrer unliked by even Bostonians. He's got us talking so mission accomplished... The article would make good bulletin board material in the Texans locker room...

Honestly, the Pats are not some invincible machine. To hear this writer and even some of our fans speak, we shouldn't even show up. They've got weaknesses - not as many as your average team, but they are there nonetheless. They (Patriots) were razor sharp in the first meeting - the Texans were on their 3rd road game in a row. I do not believe the Texans have put a total game together yet this year where offense, defense and special teams all were clicking at high efficiency (possibly the Baltimore game but that's it) - next Sunday would be a good time to start. I truly expect a different game than was the MNF debacle...
