Pete, I like both single Comp-Tac magazine holders http://www.comp-tac.com/ and single TKW magazine holders http://www.mle-shootingsports.com/ as well at holsters by both. Worcester has an IDPA match 9 Aug. and I have 1911 and CZ 75 gear you could use. What gun are you going to shoot, I have other equipment that might work. Respectfully, jkelly

Gary, I’ve shot there a few times and I remember one of the “Classifiers from Hell”, which was shot in an incredibly hard rain. They’ve had a pretty good group of people and one of the more interesting SOs I’ve run into. He’s a big tall red headed guy, usually in a straw sun hat (yes I was surprised that they have summer in Maine too) with a huge booming voice (Clinton Staples?). This is the second expansion the club has done (for IDPA) and I’m really looking forward to checking out the new range this year. Grey, Is there a sign up sheet for the Maine State match yet I didn't see it on the web site? http://www.scarfg.org/ Respectfully, jkelly

The Pats fall to 18-1 losing to a better NY Giants team. Respectfully, jkelly

For me, as a New England Patriots fan, this has been the absolutely least enjoyable season ever. Every week there has been the fear of losing and breaking the streak. If they had lost early in the season I could have just enjoyed the games and be worried now about just losing the SB instead of having the streak ended at 18 games. Respectfully, jkelly

It should be a good Super Bowl, perhaps better then the last game of the season, a 38-35 Patriots win in NJ. If any team could feel “good” about having to play the Patriots in this years Super Bowl I would think the Giants would. The Giants showed they could move the ball on the ground (4.3 average) and in the air (237 yards and 4 Touch Downs). It could be a very bad day for the Patriots. But I hope not. Respectfully, jkelly

The Patriots are absolutely beatable and Brady looked terrible in the cold and wind. They seem to be a warmer weather team and have not down well on cold windy days this year. Yet they gained almost 350 yards and had 25 first downs while not giving up a touchdown and allowing only 12 points. While that’s not too shabby who knows what would have happened if the Chargers top three players were not hurt. Are the Patriots beatable? Yes. Will they be beaten? Maybe if they can’t get any pressure on Manning. Respectfully, jkelly

The Patriots go to 18-0 with a tough win over the 13-6 Chargers in cold and windy Foxborough. The 13-6 Giants beat the 14-4 Packers at Green Bay in overtime. Respectfully, jkelly

I think you are correct or maybe its the cheerleaders. I also think that 13 years is long enough for the rest of us to get over the Cowboys past success. Respectfully, jkelly

Wow, the Giants and Chargers end the Cowboys and Colts seasons, what a couple of tough football games. Both the Patriots and Packers beat next weeks opponents by better then 21 points during week 2 of the regular season but both the Chargers and Giants seem to be much improved. What’s your thought on the Giants-Packers and Patriots-Chargers games? Respectfully, jkelly

It looks like an angry and revenge minded Charger team will be visiting New England next weekend after the Chargers defeat the Colts in Indy. That should be a good game as Chargers seem to be a much better team then they were when met New England in week 2 of this season. Respectfully, jkelly

Sorry it took so long for me to reply. The Patriots 2007 opponents had a 119-121 record against the rest of the league. That means that their opponents were pretty average against the rest of the league. The 2007 Patriots played 6 teams that won at least 10 games and three of those games were on the road. They played the best two remaining teams in the league, Dallas and Indy, at their stadiums. That is they played two 13-3 teams on the road. They arguably played the remaining 1st, 2nd and 4th best teams in the AFC and the 1st, 4th and 6th best teams in the NFC. I don’t think that is an ”easy path.” And the path gets harder tomorrow evening. Respectfully, jkelly

Yea you are correct the Patriots are a good team. The Patriots played 6 playoff teams going 6-0: San Diego by 24 points Dallas in Dallas by 21 points Washington by 45 points Indy in Indy by 4 points Pittsburg by 21 points NYG in NJ by 3 points I think Indy played 7 playoff teams going 4-3, but I’d say it’s a good team too. With all of Indy’s players back it should be a good game if the Patriots and Indy meet in the playoffs. Respectfully, jkelly

Yeah I guess should buy some more Tums. AikiDale, that was cute! The Bucs are frightening. Respectfully, jkelly

Professional athletes as role models for children, that’s an interesting thought. I hope your kid turns out well anyway. Respectfully, jkelly

Agreed, but that's been true for the Patriots the last seven seasons! Respectfully, jkelly
