Shaughnessy: Super Bowl Loss Was 'Excruciating'

Shaughnessy: Super Bowl Loss Was ‘Excruciating.’ A little bit of doom and gloom to consider: “After a decade of dominance, New England seems to be shifting back toward the Big Middle. The Bruins have been in a midseason slump. The Celtics are calcifying before our eyes. The Red Sox are pinching pennies, falling further behind their rivals in the American League. And the Patriots have lost two straight Super Bowls in the final minute against the New York Football Giants.”  [Boston.com]
