here's a pats thread for everyone to talk about patritos shit because nobody else cares

http://espn.go.com/blog/boston/new-england-patriots/post/_/id/4728508/resetting-the-53-man-roster

the 53 as it currently stands. only 22/53 on offense, when was the last time a team put together a roster with 4 RB, 4 TE and 4 WR

kinda surprised that tarpanian got cut

yeah 2 or 3 mid roster guys on D that stepped in and did a job last year got dumped. these are low profile players that i think bill figures are unlikely to get picked up and will be there if needed through the season.

get excited: in the scouting report reiss pulled on this greg salas guy, he is described as a potential 'jason avant type'

did you all see this article about gronk and his family

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1205810/2/index.htm

As Dan recalls, after the first week Welker said, "I thought I was going to have two idiots sitting next to me in the locker room, but Dan's a little more intelligent than Rob."

That notorious Super Bowl party the night of the Patriots' loss, at which he got drunk and took off his shirt? "Dude, it was the Patriots fans who got me drunk!" he told me, incredulous. "What was I supposed to do, turn down the shots?"

The WiFi network at his house is labeled BigG; his ringtone is the guitar riff from George Thorogood's Bad to the Bone.

on page 1 and this article is already priceless

And there it was: a vast subterranean weight room with a 10-foot ceiling ("so you can do proper pull-ups," Gordy said), riven by heating ducts and exposed pipes. ... This is where three of the boys, particularly Rob and Glenn, did much of their weight training, roaring at each other the Gronkowski training motto: "Do it to get chicks!"

lol

new board description imo

branch is coming back. no great surprise.

amazing

oh hey is cadfap still happening

I might be late due to completely forgetting about a reunion event happening this weekend

yeah if u guys are still down

I'm supposed to be at a reunion singthrough from 2 until 4; what I may actually do is leave at 3 or just skip it altogether (since there will be a dinner the previous night)

cad i will be there unless you inform me otherwise, and maybe even still then. on for the 1pm games and the pats at 4?

oh wait I thought the Pats were playing at 1, they're at 4? YAY CONFLICT MOSTLY RESOLVED

yeah pats at 4:25 tbh.

i'll be ready to go at 1:00!

regardless of the result in the end today, there is something wrong with this team, i think, behind the scenes. overall coaching is unrecognizably poor and mentally something with the players is off.

nods sagely

otmfm

if i were to try to find a positive spin for it, i would say they are showing exactly the kind of basic mental errors and failure of leadership as a tom coughlin championship winning team in regular season. but...

I like the old red unis though.

talib! cool guy.

a real cornerback! i haven't seen what NE gave for him tho. and for tampa to give him i figure his off-field issues are legit.

housecleaning by that asshole who coaches the bucs, doubt they gave up much

more like a favor from schiano to his old buddy bill. Cheatriots at it again.

:(

gave up a 4th and a 7th next year

oh sorry a 4th for talib and a 7th

talib was a 1st round just a few years ago, and doesn't seem to have played too far off that level. don't really get this but am tentatively psyched.

he might be a really bad guy and he's a fa at the end of the year. tampa didn't want him around.

"One player said the most excitement in post-game locker room wasn't for AFC East title, but when Bill Belichick gave them Monday off"

anonymous player otm, i would like monday off too

all pats fans should get monday off, good idea

we should've had this law implemented when scott brown was president
