Default No nit too small to pick

This is an interesting article...

The Cold, Hard Football Facts crew has received so many questions from concerned Patriots fans this year that we're starting to wonder if they just witnessed the same record-setting season that we did. Last we checked, the Patriots were 16-0 and fresh off the most dominating NFL season since World War II.

You wouldn't know it by the tenor of some of these concerns, which prove that:
Nobody frets over nothing quite like a New Englander, and
Few fans can find smaller nits to pick
Here's a pretty representative sample of the questions and concerns we've received about the 2007 Patriots as they prepare to extend their undefeated season into the playoffs, along with the answers etched in the stony gridiron granite of the Cold, Hard Football Facts...

By the way, this is an excellent source if you want to actually get facts about football... something that the major sports media often doesn't give you. It originated back at the start of the Patriots domination in 2003, in NE, so I think a lot of people thought they were biased. But they have since become big, and have proven that they are geared toward facts rather than just proving that the Patriots are an excellent team... as is seen somewhat in this article by their comments about Indy's chances of beating the Pats if they play next weekend.

good article. It sure helped calm some of my nerves. But still as much as I love statistical amalysis, football is played on the field not on paper.
