FOXBORO - Between them, Brian Waters and Gerard Warren have spent 23 seasons in the NFL and played in 341 games. Neither has been to the Super Bowl. Until now. "This is what I've been dreaming of since I was a kid," Warren said Monday afternoon in a locker room almost devoid of players but crawling with media. "Now it's reality. I'm there. Been looking forward to this my whole life."A khaki colored fishing hat perched atop his head, Warren's smile broke widely as he reflected on the opportunity. "I've just been wishing I could be there, bro," he said when asked what it's been like all these years watching peers play in Super Bowls. "The stars were aligned and I'm here now."Warren, the third-overall pick in 2001, once made it to the AFC Championship game (2005with Denver). Waters? Three total playoff games. All losses. "Im overjoyed," Waters said Sunday night. "This is an unbelievable deal. This is probably the most excited I have been in a long time, since the birth of my children probably. God knows this has been unbelievable and I have been truly blessed. I appreciate my teammates and these guys welcomed me here and just gave me an opportunity to do something special.
