Pats Final Preparations
Posted by: Mike Dowling on January 21, 2007 at 6:32PM EST


Both teams have left the field and are in their respective locker rooms for their final briefings.

As Tom Brady was running off the field he was smiling and went over and gave Colts linebacker Cato June a friendly nudge with his helmut. June and Brady played at Michigan together. That loosened up June a little who had been staring at all of the Patriots

The pre-game was highlighted by a field goal kicking contest and Patriot fans might not want to know who won.

Both Kickers- Adam Viantieri and Stephen Gostkowski ended up at the same end of the field and kicking right next to one another. Vinatieri was nearly flawless, hitting at least 3 from 55 yards with 5 yards to spare while all 3 of Gotskowski's attempts from over 50 yards were wide.

Every one of Vinatieri's kicks were greeted by loud cheers by the locals as were gotskowski's misses.

Was this a deliberate psyche job by Vinatieri and the Colts? Probably not, but a weird coincidence.

The Dome is already packed and loud and getting louder.

Both teams will re-enter the field in another 5 minutes

More to come
