This Pain Will Linger

Show me the way to the next whiskey bar. 

Oh, don't ask why. Oh, don't ask why.

Jim Morrison's lyrics certainly fit for Patriots' Nation following perhaps the biggest disappointment in Boston sports history.

The Red Sox NOT winning the 1986 World Series, in my mind, had been numero uno.

Until Sunday, February 3, 2008.

For all the records the 2007-08 New England Patriots set this year, the only one that matters is this:

Most unfulfilling 18-and-1 seasons in NFL history: One.

This one will sting for a long, long time.
