24 Thoughts Every Patriots Fan Had During Super Bowl LI
Simon Bruty

Super Bowl LI was one of the greatest of all time. What looked to be a blow out turned into a game. Julio Jones had amazing catches. Julian Edelman had a catch that rivals the 2007 helmet catch. The game-tying drive led by Tom Brady. It was a great game for any that tuned in.

But as a Patriots fan, I also thought I was going to get white-girl wasted, throw up and have a heart attack within a four-hour window. I don’t know what the average person was thinking while watching that game, but I can tell you how it went from a Patriots fan point of view.

1. “There we go again, not scoring in the first quarter of the Super Bowl. Bill isn’t ever gonna let Tommy live it down.”

But neither did the Falcons, so we’re good.

2. “Don’t fumble the ball! We were making moves. Get it back to Tommy; he’s our playmaker.”

This is why we don’t run the ball.

3. “It’s only one touchdown. We can come back from this.”

But man, Julio Jones is a beast.

4. “How did they already score another touchdown?”

Where is the number one defense? And how can we stop Julio? That man just isn’t human.

5. “Are they playing Usher? Even the music is bias!”

Roger’s rigging this game. Could it be any more obvious?

6. “Tommy, no!”

You’ve never thrown an interception in the Super Bowl, Tommy. What are you doing to me?

7. “Oh, just get in the end zone already!”

Don’t taunt us. We get it, you ran it back and there was no one close to you. Just get in the end zone.

8. “Halftime. Tom better be giving it to his O-Line right now.”

And Bill better be giving it to him, because he played like trash in the first half.

9. “28-3. Where’s my other case of beer?”

Also, pull out the vodka. Shots for every pass Julio catches!

10. “We DO know where the end zone is!”

We may not win this game, but James White needs a game ball for that touchdown.

11. “Chug.”

Gostkowski would miss that extra point. Just when things start looking up, something else brings us down.

12. “At least it’s almost over.”

Fourth quarter started and this game can’t be over soon enough. I bet that new 24 show will be pretty good, though.

13. “Oh, he CAN make it through the uprights.”

Still not good enough. We need touchdowns. And more beer.

14. “Tom Brady.”

There’s a touchdown. But we’re still down by 10.

15. “Two Points!”

Bill isn’t messing around. Where was this in the first half? And the third quarter? Doesn’t matter, defense has to make this stop

16. “Julio Jones is not a human.”

When is Bill going to sign him, though? Tom needs a good reliable target.

17. “There’s the defense!”

What a stop. What a game. Eight points Tommy. You can do this.

18. “IT’S A CATCH!”

It’s not a catch. It’s a catch! It’s not a catch. It didn’t touch the ground. Oh. My. Goodness. It’s a catch!

19. “Run the dang ball!”

Let’s not make the same mistake the Seahawks did against us. Run it. Touchdown James White!

20. “Tie Game!”

Oh no, there's a flag. Yeah! Offsides Falcons! But there are 50 seconds left and they have Matty Ice

21. “Overtime. We may just do this.”

Wait, what are the overtime rules again?

22. “Tommy is on the field first. Just get a touchdown boys.”

We won the toss. All we need is a touchdown and it’s over.

23. “Did he break the plane?”

Is his knee down? Did we win? ESPN says it’s over! We just won Super Bowl LI!

24. “I can't wait to see Roger handover that trophy.”

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

winter

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
