After years of dealing with the tablets being called iPads, it must really suck for Microsoft to hear there's a problem with the Microsoft surface tablets from Microsoft over and over again.
"Belichick might as well start Edelman under center against Buffalo to stick it to commissioner Roger Goodell, who never fathomed the Patriots would bleed all remaining air out of Brady's Deflategate suspension by going 4-0 in his absence."
PancakeTyme Breakdown:
Here we see three unique approaches to the pancake game.
Mayo goes for the traditional face, however what really separates himself from the competition here is his genius use of a banana mouth. That, my friends, is what we in the pancake world call vision. He takes something that most would just slice into circles and reworks that fruit to become something never before seen.
Edelman on the other hand goes for the puppy dog face. Utilizing chocolate chips The Squirrel outlines the perfect canine facial structure. Amazing.
Faulk takes his pancake to a whole other level a direction completely different from his collegues; he goes for an abstract style of pancakery. Always known for going where no man has dared to go before, his pancake game is no different. His masterpiece means something different to everyone, but to me personally it represents the tears of millions of Hawks fans as their birdbrains try and process what just happened (why they ever counted out our redZone def. in the first place only goes to show their lack of lnowledge of their opponent. They should've pulled a BFB and read up on The Art of War.)

>What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I am a 4-time Superbowl champion, and I've been involved in numerous secret operations with Coach Belichick, and I have over 390 confirmed touchdown passes. I am trained in an uptempo offense and I'm the top quarterback in the entire National Football League. You are nothing to me but just another worthless team. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision passes the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of NFL scouts across the USA and your team is being observed right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your team. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can defeat you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in aerial attacks, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the most elite running backs and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the NFL, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. Your team is fucking dead, kiddo.
His PFF grades show potential. Grading out at +0.2 against the Lions D-line at LG is impressive. Connoly graded out at an absolutely atrocious -6.0 against the same Lions.
Edit: I really, really like this move. He would have had the 4th best 3-cone time and 2nd best shuttle time among OL in this year's combine at an impressive 316 lbs. He's also our only player on our roster who has the prototypical size and athleticism of a LG. I could see him starting at LG this year and performing much better than Connoly did.
It's from the first couple of paragraphs of the article, which weren't copied and pasted here. I have the link here if you want to read it.

Also, I have worked in the newspaper business. This article screams "Hey Jeff -- we need something on Brady/Jimmy. Something with teeth."
This is the same paper that published Tomasi's slander about the SB practice being taped.
Fuck this article, fuck the Herald. This is a manufactured controversy. But oh god, every radio host in the country will mention Howe and the Herald tomorrow.
Of course, they are going to tell him their factual history with the inury. What are they going to lie to him? Or just refuse to mention that Brady played through it.
Crazy how she was sexually harassed on 27 different occasions by different people. Almost as though she was crazy and exaggerated for attention.

That was a great read, thanks for posting.
I Have to say this was my favorite fact in the article: "Belichick facts: Bill Belichick loves the Grateful Dead and Bon Jovi, will quote “The Art of War,” has read all the Harry Potter books, preferred lacrosse to football as a player and is probably breaking down film right now, no matter when you are reading this."
I came here to tell that whiny little bitch Mark Brunell top fuck off
They're more careful about putting two dark colors on the field this year because colorblind viewers couldn't distinguish between the Jets and Bills wearing green and red last year. Maybe red and blue wouldn't be a good pair either?
The Jets, Browns, Rams, Falcons and Cardinals are also wearing white this year.
From Mike Reiss' blog:
Given the challenging assignment of covering Antonio Brown, he intercepted a first-quarter pass in the end zone and finished with three passes defended. Brown still had notable production (7 catches, 106 yards, with a long of 51)http://www.espn.com/blog/new-england-patriots/post/_/id/4796876/patrick-chung-is-up-for-patriots-while-brandon-bolden-rusty-in-return
I'm not downvoting you, but Chung was the closest Patriot to the ballcarrier when he was bear-hugged from behind at the 3 yard line when McFadden ran past him. Chung probably would have been able to tackle him at the 1 or 2 yard line without the hold. Oakland could probably still run it in on 2nd or third down -- yes, but not necessarily that play.

The Netherlands VPN still works, they only blacklisted the most obvious server ips of the major VPN networks. Try the "Hola" plug in for your browser and if that doesn't work use Google for proxy lists that are NOT on the first 1-2 pages and enter them manually with " FoxyProxy" (another browser plug in, also available for both chrome and firefox).
Note: u only need to load that url with the proxy turned on: If it worked there is a green launcher button and a note "game pass is free in your County.... Yada yada". You can then turn off the proxy, hit launch and enjoy the stream in full speed.
Also worth noting: if you can't for your life find a working Netherlands VPN try Argentina or new Zealand instead, gamepass is also free there. Most of the time VPN-server response is horrible though, due to the usually high pings. It works, only the schedule page might take 5-10 mind to load, or multiple tries.
Personally, I did it that way for the past 2 years without much problems. This year I pay for it though, don't wanna go through the hassle again. Also, while legally spoken it might be Grey area, I'd still consider it a copyright infringement and therefore be careful. You connect directly to their servers, which is different to firstrow.
RES is reddit enhancement suite. It's a browser plug-in that gives you some more power user options in Reddit.

New Reddit is the horrid unintuitive over-produced tiling layout for Reddit that makes everything take more clicks, and feels more like FB.
Somewhere on your page (not sure where, because I have opted out) there should be a link to visit "old reddit". This returns you to the layout that is mostly simple text, and super easy to navigate.
I heard some folks on cable cutters a while back said they use a free VPN like CyberGhost and select any EU country. They then pay for the game pass ($250-$299) for the season which from an EU country shows live games and not replays.

And, as I predicted, the national media is taking this sensationalist horse shit, from the world's shittiest paper, to generate a controversy which isn't one. And Howe's name and the paper's name will be all over the media all day -- every fucking radio show in the country, on television, maybe Dan Patrick.
I really hate this kind of journalism.
> I'm not sure what his 40 time is or how this number is calculated.
They're using RFID chips in the shoulder pads:
I'm sure you can find the info on NFL... I just don't go there.
Also, 40-time is very different than football speed. Not only is there lots of equipment involved, but not everyone can go full throttle knowing they risk having their head knocked off.
The game is very complex, it can be enjoyed at a superficial level, but to fully appreciate it requires years of study.
Mr Belichick has the world's largest library of football books. One of his all time favorites is "The Art of War", not reportedly written for the greatest of all games. Bill spent his childhood at the naval academy, where his father was employed as a Scout. A noted memorable moment was playing catch with Roger Staubach.
Steve, his father, wrote "The Book" on scouting. Bill could diagram plays from the stands by the age of nine. That is, after a play, draw on paper with X's and O's, arrows and lines depicting what just happened.
Unlike most coaches, Bill is not a "jock". That is, a man blessed merely with physical skills. He is a first class intellect who has focused his vast energy on one thing. He has in my mind, one rival in the history of the game, Paul Brown. I agree, it is not a calculable thing, as is, to use a random example, the relationship between changes in air to temperature and pressure.
You have good cause to be proud of this great man. In the long run, the slings and arrows will be forgotten, relegated to a parenthetical footnote.
No discussion of the Best That Has Ever Been is valid without his name in the argument. In the modern game, he is alone. He is Tom Brady and the Patriot's unfair advantage.
Thanks to Bill for giving a writer the run of the place, the chance to be a fly on the wall of the Pats organization. The man that earned that trust is Michael Holley
Mike is now an afternoon host on WEEI Boston radio. A great spirit, who responds to idiots with laughter, and usually good natured derision. He is gifted with piercing intelligence, a quick wit, and heart.
Michael Holley's three books on the Patriots are must reads for fans everywhere of this, the greatest game.
After what they did to you... of course. Welcome! Especially if you were a fan of little Danny Woodhead, who Bill Belichick saw potential in when the Jets kicked him to the curb.
You may get a kick out of this.
Now go to youtube and watch some TB12 career highlights!
Even funner fact: this years vaccine is only 10% effective on this year's virus, H3N2. And Massachusetts already had a widespread outbreak around Thanksgiving too.
Interesting way of picking a team. Welcome to Pats nation for the moment. Come and go as you please, you won't offend me.
Probably due to this. The NFL tweeked the scheduling in 2009 in order to prevent East Coast teams from having to make several cross country trips (like the Patriots in 2008, when they traveled to San Francisco, Seattle, San Diego and Oakland).
So the NFL created pairs for the AFC and NFC West divisions (49ers-Cardinals, Seahawks-Rams, Raiders-Broncos and Chargers-Chiefs), each with one West Coast and one Midwest-ish team, and the East Coast teams will always play the paired teams both at home or both away. So in 2014 for example, when the Patriots played the AFC West, they played Raiders-Broncos pair at home and the Chargers-Chiefs pair away.
In 2008 both the Cardinals and the Rams played the Patriots in Gilette, but because they were put in different pairs one of them had to play in Gilette again in 2012. It ended up being the Cardinals, so the Pats played the 49ers-Cardinals pair at home and the Seahawks-Rams pair away.
I don't, but I have a workaround I use anytime I want to save a video that can't normally be downloaded.
If you use a screen capture software such as Open Broadcaster Software you can record anything that plays on your screen and save it as a video file. The end result looks very good, you just have to let the whole video play and keep OBS running the entire time, so it's more time consuming than traditional download and you can't use the computer for other things while screen capturing. It's Windows/Mac compatible and very reliable from my experience.
There's actually a pretty interesting post from the broncos about how JT is used to talk to this one:
> Julius Thomas usually lines up (correct me if I'm wrong) at the tight end position or the slot
This is true on most of the field, but in the red zone, he lines up wide.

edit: this is clearly a game of chess happening sunday. and belichick is a chess master. i wish i could watch this game live :(
I read this article after the game today b/c I wanted to read and learn about Martellus . He has been sooooooo damn good with us. I would love it if he stays.
It's gonna be a real tough decision for him. He's straight business. He has a very good sense about money and business. But he will be conflicted b/c he says the Giants and Patriots are the only teams he has ever been on that were a "team". I could see him staying and going, but I would think he'd take the money at the end of the day. let's just enjoy him while we have him.
You have found me, I'm testing it in /r/test :)
I'm trying to find a way to work around the 10 minute posting limit, but apparently if it gets enough upvotes, it can bypass it. I'll move it back to /r/patriots and see what happens.

I'll add Lawyer Milloy to this list, as well. He was in the Patriots locker room after a win last year, so I couldn't help but show him this picture taken in 1995. I was a huge Washington Huskies fan growing up, and Milloy was always one of my favorite players.
https://www.instagram.com/p/tGwCktQkOv/
He loved it, and was showing it to other guys in the locker room, like Deion Branch and Brady.
I really like that video that was released on FB..I forget who it was but it had the voiceover from a Rocky Movie that was pretty inspirational. Warriors? Not sure.

It's doable. You just need a radio that has a headphone jack, and then an aux cord to connect it to the computer to add in the delay to match the TV. Then use a program like radio delay(windows) or audio hijack(mac) to delay it a few seconds until it's synced.
Amazon! I got it for $45 its $85 now.
Tie was $10
I got the XXL on accident (drunk) im 6'3 so an XL wouldve been great.
The Championship one comes out early March I think, I have it pre-ordered on Amazon (They say March 7).
3 Games to Glory 5 just has a tentative date of early spring, as per the Pats Pro Shop. I haven't seen it on Amazon yet though
I don't think they have custom ones. Even the 00 ones are pretty expensive. It was really hard for me to justify 20 or 30 dollars for these but I just saw them for 15 on amazon and I had some gift cards from Christmas so I pulled the trigger. A Vince Wilfork jersey on a fat kittie would be adorable!
EDIT: These are obviously not custom but these are the ones I got. They have all different sizes and they are the cheapest I have seen.
Here is another true free way to get it. Use Kepard as your proxy. Kepard gives 30 minutes a day free. But once you have the connection to the game you can shut it down and not use all 30 minutes.
Basically download the free Kepard program. Run it, set the country you want to be in to the Netherlands. Go to and click the watch games link in the top right. Pick our game, once the game is on turn off Kepard. Enjoy.
Which way to the hall of salt comment? I have another candidate, also I can't seem to find it
It's been a while so I might be wrong, but the way I remember it Bodden had been on IR in 2010, came back the next year. Played sparingly in the beginning of the season and then the Patriots cut him favoring McCourty and Arrington. The rumor at the time was that Bodden was unhappy with his playing time. The reporting at the time would suggest he was still healthy: http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/7160112/new-england-patriots-players-told-cb-leigh-bodden-cut
He also got arrested for fucking up a dude who called his friend a racist slur: source
I think this would be right up your alley.
As far as I can tell, this is the most in-depth history of spygate (and why deflategate was a makeup call to appease a group of owners who always thought Goodell was soft on spygate and never forgave him), if you want to read about it. The part that amused me:
> Looking back on it, several former Patriots coaches insist that spying helped them most against less sophisticated teams -- the Dolphins and Bills chief among them -- whose coaches didn't bother changing their signals. Even when they had the perfect play teed up, sometimes the system would fail, owing to human error.
The vimeo download link should be working again. But if you'd prefer Mega, here is a new link
I think the Mega links must have a user capacity and then they cap it. Let me know if you run into issues.
Thanks for the help, but unfortunately it seems OP removed the link :-(
EDIT- And that's because we can download on Vimeo again, whoo! And ^g O ^at P gave another Mega link!
I got 41 but didn't know how to spell the Hoomanawanui or Connolly. Thought Connolly had one l.
I've never heard of Malcolm Williams or Derrick Martin on the team either lol.

Who knows what else this guy was involved in?
This is exactly what I do, I use IPVanish specifically because they have a lot of servers in Boston to create a fake ‘IP’. Yet sometimes I still have to choose the opponents city as my ‘fake’ IP for whatever reason to get the right game to stream, not sure why that is but it’s happened a couple times. If either of those cities won’t work (meaning you’re still getting your local stream, not the Pats’ stream), go to a site like 506sports to see what other parts of the country get the Pats game on local TV and select an IP from one of those cities. I stream through Paramount Plus for CBS games or the FOX app when they have one (which is rare), the rest will be national broadcasts. But today the local Boston programming cut away for me as well, although thankfully I was able to switch to a server/IP based in Cincinnati (CLE wasn’t available) and I streamed it to the end.
If you get lucky with your timing:

For a 5% off code. Only saved me $1.40 on the shirt, but some of you might plan on buying other stuff (and saving some money is better than saving no money).
I didn't check that one, but I did find this article that lists some alternatives:

Looks like the first two will be featuring the game...here's to hoping they work
Hmm. Weather conditions are similar to last year's AFCCG. I'd like to see the NFL release the air pressure stats for this game that they've been supposedly collecting all year. I'll wait right here. I'm sure they'll be released any day now.
You can listen to 98.5, the station that broadcasts the game in the Boston area, on tunein.com.
Link.
But I think if you are out of the broadcast area you will need to get a subscription.
100% free for students... check it out... https://www.tableau.com/academic/students
there are intro tutorials on that page too
definitely do it, Tableau is one of the biggest in demand skills out there now
DirecTV used to be a bit more lenient with whom they let qualify for the SundayTicket, but they’ve tightened things up this year for reasons I can’t understand, as it only loses them money. I was grandfathered in with an old student email and then an address that couldn’t get a satellite dish (it seems backwards but if you live in an area where you can’t have a satellite dish like an apartment or townhouse, then they’ll let you pay for SundayTicket without subscribing to Directv; but if you’re eligible for regular DirectTV, you must subscribe to them first and then add on the Ticket to their service), now I went to log in and pay for the year and they say I no longer qualify, call DirectTV and sign up for their cable/satellite service for a year and then add on the Ticket. Fuck that.
Instead, I got a the IPVanish VPN with servers in Boston (so I can use a Boston area IP address), and I’m going to sign up CBS All Access for $5 per month. Hopefully the VPN and Boston IP address will then allow me to watch New England area local games from a different region of the US. For everything else, ‘take an NFL BITE’ and stream away. This will save hundreds of dollars over the Ticket, wish I did it years ago.
College ball is the best. Watching kids come through, grow and get better for four years, then you have a new batch...it makes the game so much more exciting, IMO.
If you're moving to AL, do yourself a favor and get one of these before you go. It's the only way to set proper boundaries with those crazy bastards down there. :)
America's game is also a good book
I grabbed my son the TB12 bag that was on Amazon. Dude loves it. When delivered I was more than surprised how well made it was!
For fiction, I recently finished A Gentleman in Moscow and while some would consider the story slow going, I found the language used to tell it enjoyable enough to see it all the way through.
If you're into biographies, I'm just now finishing Washington: A Life, by Ron Chernow, the guy whose Hamilton Bio inspired the play. Sometimes I think he tries to undersell Washington's involvement with slavery, but that's just my bias and I think on the whole he does a fair job of it. Edmund Morris' three book set on Teddy Roosevelt was what got me reading biographies to begin with, and ironically enough I found it from a reddit comment years ago, haha.
For a lighter read on a really interesting true story, I'd recommend "Stranger in the Woods," by Michael Finkel--especially if you're an outdoorsy type.
Oh! And if you're into productivity definitely pick up Deep Work by Cal Newport. Changed the way I structure my time, and since I started changing my schedule my efficiency has skyrocketed.
I don't know if you're the sci-fi/fantasy type, but anything by Steven Brust, especially To Reign in Hell is both snappy, smart, and fun to read.
And if you want dry, but grammatically sound textbooks on psychology and personality theory, let me know 'cause I've been required to read tons as of late, lol.
Sorry for the delay in the response, if you give me a genre or area of interest I could probably be more help. I love to read, and I read a bunch of different things, but this is what I've most recently finished.
Went to school in buffalo the last 4 years. Went back and forth across the border a number of times with and without a full car of people. I've found getting into canada was never an issue but coming back, border guards were more interrogative. Never been pulled off to the side and had my car searched. Really just need to give them the straight answer and move on. Also, I've never had a problem bringing alcohol in or out. As long as you're honest with them, you should have nothing to worry about. Enjoy the game! I'll be there too!
Also, don't know what your booking and dates situation is for airbnb but theres 2 decent options in buffalo I found for 10 people over the weekend (the two on top):
Is an offense better if it has 123 yards on 30 carries or 100 yards on 20 carries? Overall yards don't matter as much as how many plays it takes to get them. You don't have to be a troll to realize that on a per-attempt basis, the Patriots running game ranks in the bottom half of the league. (Source: http://www.espn.com/nfl/statistics/team/_/stat/rushing/sort/yardsPerRushAttempt)
You need a VPN that uses Wireshark protocol and has a lot of server options. Surfshark is a good one supposedly. I was able to use Mullvad (my usual) last week though because they had a Miami server. But will need to switch to Surfshark to get Boston servers.
I use NordVPN. They don't have any servers in New England, but usually they'll have one in another region that's showing the game.
It's super easy to do. You just sign up for service, download the app, and you select which server you want to connect to. After connecting all of your internet traffic will go through there, making things like Paramount+ think you're viewing from that location and will serve local CBS.
They have apps for desktop and mobile, I use both (it's just a good thing to use when connected to public wifi anyway). I don't do much casting from my phone to TV, but last weekend I was using my Windows PC to view the game and screen shared to my Roku TV with no issue.
Based /u/guitarpatch already covered most of the games I'd watch, so I suggest you take a look at this video by Brett Kollmann and this book by Pat Kirwan if you haven't. They're good primers for a deeper understanding of not just what is happening, but why.
The Patriots have the benefit of being, from the top down, one of the most cerebral organizations in NFL history and the only team to have an unbroken 22-year stretch of continuity at key decision-making positions. Throughout your romp through Patriots history, you'll see recurring play concepts, recurring roles, and recurring strategies and they're truly amazing to watch once you have an idea of the complex mechanisms that exist behind the game.
Have fun!
ITT a bunch of people making excuses. Its not okay for anyone to be doing stuff like this, even if its a player we all love. I'll welcome him back when he comes back, I'll hope the appeal comes through, but I am not okay with normalizing the use of something with negative health effects including joint problems, high cholesterol, and an increased risk of diabetes and cancer.
It could be a team doctor or athletic training staff's phone which would be totally allowed. Also, I'm not sure cell phones are actually banned -- use of electronic communication devices is banned.
In 2009, the NFL banned players, coaches, league officials, and other team personnel (or people representing them) from tweeting, texting, or updating social media during games (and also 90 minutes before and until post-game press is done after games).
This article on the Browns coaching/GM staff texting during games quotes the electronic devices rule:
>"This prohibition ... applies to the use of any electronic communication devices, including but not limited to a cell phone, smart phone, tablet device, or any type of computer, whether online or stand-alone, including laptop and hand-held computers, in the coaches' booths, on the sidelines, in the locker room (after kickoff), or in any other club-controlled area on game day beginning ninety (90) minutes prior to kickoff and continuing through the end of the game, including halftime (with the exception of League-issued tablets used for coaches' still photos).
>"Team doctors and members of the athletic training staff are permitted to use tablet devices, cell phones, smart phones, or similar devices within the bench area and locker room to communicate player injury information, but may not communicate competitive or strategic information.
>"Club football operations staff members are permitted to use cell phones outside the coaches' booths, bench areas, and locker rooms only when handling non-competitive and/or non-strategic communication."
The next video of the guy saying they got beat before the game even started, mentally, because Tom Brady's throwing motion was so majestic - got me.
Warning ESPN link: link to the video
> Literally nobody actually thinks you guys are cheaters.
Fuck ESPN but here's a poll from 8/7/16. 63% of the country say 'Yes', the Patriots are cheaters. Please try to educate yourself before spewing your baseless insights.
It's been a long time, and I don't think Bodden ever came out and said it but that's what was suggested when it happened: http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/7160112/new-england-patriots-players-told-cb-leigh-bodden-cut
Look up the MVP votes for those years.
This is an article from 2005 and the info from 2006 is free to find on youtube.
You’ll likely be moving around a bit and shouting, which will increase your body temp a bit, but I digress. It doesn’t look like you’ll have to deal with precipitation, just the cold and probably wind chill, especially if you’re high up in the nosebleeds.
I recommend a pair of heated socks, like these. They’ve got wiring throughout them that heats up and connects to little battery packs that are stitched into little pockets by your calves. That’s probably your cheapest option and it will work. I bought a pair for my wife a few years back and she still loves them.
Your next cheapest option for your hands will be having a couple of those hand warmers. Pair those up with whatever gloves you have and remember to keep some extras in your pockets and you should be ok.
You’ll probably also want a balaclava mask that covers your nose, a nice winter hat, a winter coat, gloves, and boots. Speaking of boots, I’ve kept my feet warm with Ugg’s in the past. They’ve got some styles of cold weather boots that look pretty good, IMHO.
And for a pro tip: get a pair of neoprene pants, like wetsuit pants and wear them under your pants. Brady would wear a wetsuit under his pads during really cold games and I bet you’ll see Mac in the thick black sleeves this weekend.
I’m gonna try using the tag heuer face see it here maybe leave the tag heuer logo or replace it with a Pat’s logo
And I would be pissed if someone used my engagement photo for some viral meme posted to reddit and imgur. That doesn't mean I would win if I tried suing reddit and imgur if some user of reddit/imgur used my image inappropriately. Amazon and other companies that let random individuals self-publish their books on their platforms without any approval process that could filter out this sort of copyright infringement in their cover images. Also, once it was reported as infringing, Amazon stopped publishing the book and the author came out with a new cover (that didn't have that couple or any NFL logos).
I'm all for them suing the author of the e-book, but I would guess lawyer fees will cost more than any potential damages you'd get out of a small ebook author who likely published it as a joke. (E.g., maybe a judge would give them 50% of sales profits or something, but it wouldn't surprise me if the award is just a couple hundred dollars and doesn't cover legal fees if they can't demonstrate actual damages).
One of my favorite memories as a fan was that Monday Night Game in '98 where he injured the finger, stayed in the game and threw the GW TD to Shawn Jefferson in the final seconds.
>But why would Yee (who represents Garoppolo as well as Brady) leak it?
Becuase not leaking anything allows people to draw conclusions on incorrect information. ESPN link warning: This article was from years ago. LaDainian Tomlinson suffered a sprained knee (sprained MCL). He tried to play, injured it more/again, and was forced to take himself out because he couldn't run effectively. No one really knew what was going on, so the rumor spread that "he could have played if he wanted to." So the message became "LT has no heart. He's soft."
The patriots are feeding the message of: he might play, no structural damage..it's all about pain tolerance, Brady played with this injury before....4 times. Add on Belichick's message of "I"m not a doctor, they clear guys, not me..." And it makes everything seem like JG can and should be ready to go......if he's tough enough.
By JG getting the message out there that he can't lift his arm (much less throw), and the patriots are pressuring him into playing, it undercuts Bill's message about him being hands off with injuries and trainers. The message isn't, "JG is weak" it's, "The patriots are more concerned with wins than their QB. They are more than happy to trot out an injured player and let him get injured worse/again because Brady will be back in 2 weeks?"
We saw that with Gronk and his broken arm and the patriots rushing him back (and gronk rebreaking it). So what did gronk do in 2014 coming back from his surgeries (and the patriots said he's be ready by week 1 or or 3), again 2015 with his bone bruise against the broncos (patriots nothing structural, it's a pain management issue), and now again with his current unknown leg problem? He says, "I've got this injury, it's day to day, need to be back to 100%..we'll see what happens." Gronk is controlling the message. It's not an issue of toughness; it's an issue of needing to be healthy.
The Herald needed copy, wanted to be named on national sports shows all day.
I am sure the only fact in this article is that the Patriots told him Brady played with it, because the only other option would be to lie to him about it.
All the stuff about medical recovery time and "pressuring," is all inference and conjecture from the people who brought us the false article about spying on practice: http://www.espn.com/nfl/news/story?id=3398828
I think they should start whoever they think is best for the team.
It is probably Brissett but we don't know enough. This Howe article certainly doesn't come from a reputable source
Shula and some others was saying the Pats '07 season deserved an asterisks because of spygate.
Obviously, a HC doesn't fully represent the whole team some 35 years later.
There was an article today that quoted O'Brien as saying that they had to prepare for both.
Warning: ESPN link... for those who still care about that.
Vimeo download works for me right now. Here is another Mega link just in case that's the issue.
Can you give it a shot in Chrome just for kicks?
Just keep me posted and I'll troubleshoot any way I can.
I ended up getting them b/c I read the lower bowl is preferable. Not sure but having been in nosebleeds felt too far. It's also just above the club seats which supposedly have the best views, so figured I'd bite.
Also at least on Accuweather it's increased to be 41 degrees instead of 33 with slightly less chance of rain and much less rain amount--just .2 inches vs .55 inches earlier today. Looking good!
The original designer ran it for us last year!

I've got one, it's a really nice quality shirt.
Counting down the days until we get TFB back, I whipped up this design; mixing BB's Navy ties with Brady's GOAT status.
So glad that Jimmy, Jacoby and, if needed, Jules could watch the throne. I set up a Teespring campaign in case you guys wanted to try and get a shirt made.
Also let me know if you want wallpapers and I can set them up.

This article is instructive -- it came out when the news broke and cites 2018 as the "key marker" in the headline.
FYI: The news from the announcement of the deal says - in headline no less "2018 is key marker."
For instance, the team that had the most dead money I can recall in the age of this CBA is New Orleans 2015. They have 15 percent of their 150 m cap room lost to dead money.
That was 21 million they willingly absorbed to make roster moves, like trading Graham. By 2018 14 m in dead money would much a much smaller percentage of the cap, which goes up every year (and the dead money is just 7 m after June 1).
And it would be wiped off the books in a year. It would have less lasting financial impact that Aaron Hernadez' contract, and the team was fine -- won a SB in that period.
So, while it is true Brady is literally untradeable for 2 years (and the Pats would be crazy to trade him then anyway), if they want to extend or franchise Jimmy, they can do it in 2018, by trading or cutting Brady.
Kevin Siefert covered it on ESPN today . If you don't want to give them the views it boils down to lots of coaches are going to try it, especially early in the season. 9% fewer touchbacks and 8% fewer kickoffs into the endzone compared to last year's full-season averages. On the other hand, average start was the 24-yard line, as opposed to the 21 last year. So definitely the Pats did the best in that phase of the game.
Basically everyone's talking about it. Dale Arnold just asked about it in the interview with Belichick on WEEI just two minutes ago.
>whIle Elandon Roberts is mostly a STer
Also, I wouldn't call Freeny a ST standout. He's probably not one of our 5 best special teamers (not even including Gostkowski, Allen and Cardona). He's here as the 3rd off-the-line linebacker. That wasn't Ayers' role. It was Casillas'. You're right. Ayers was more like what we'll have Mingo and maybe McLellin do.
He's been out for 2 weeks with an illness. Caught a bad case of the Foxboro flu.
> Is there a mod to replace it with a kitten?
There actually is, but it replaces all images.
There's also a way to hack your wifi network so that it intercepts all image requests with a single picture, so any guests on your LAN get trolled. I think there's even an Android app that does it, but I may be confusing it with some other kind of sniffing software.
