No one wants to watch this one alone
Regardless of who you root for, the Super Bowl still has the power to bring people together for the shared experiences of socializing, arguing, eating and of course, football. In today’s world of On Demand, customized playlists and live streaming, we have much fewer common experiences. The days of a family gathering around to listen to a radio show are positively old fashioned and sitting down in the family room together for a show or movie is also getting more rare. I’m not necessarily saying this is bad. Much of it is great. You will not hear me complain on a long car trip when every person has their own device that plays the music, games and movies that person wants to hear, on headphones. The silence of no one arguing about the movie …

Tom Stephens will huddle with family and friends in their winter home's living room to watch his old team play in the Super Bowl Sunday.
Swampscott's Tom Stephens would have fit nicely into a Bill Belichick system that values versatile players. In Stephens' five seasons as a member of the original Boston Patriots football team, from 1960-64, he played tight end, safety, corner back and practiced at flanker. Sunday he will huddle with fellow Patriots fans in the living room of he and his wife Lonnie’s winter home, a condo in Naples, Fla. They have two couches and will haul out chairs to set up the cheering section around the 20-inch television. The Pats fans will snack on cashews and peanuts and order pizza at halftime. The mood will be buoyant. The room will grow loud at 6:30 p.m. as Stephens' favorite player, Tom Brady, and the gang clash against Eli and his crew in …

Well...we all know how that turned out! Little Angie, now anticipating her fourth birthday, knows little about the rivalry, but is proud to be a Patriots fan. In the years since the Pat's last Super Bowl appearance, Angie …
