Default This is my first off season on the forum...

Is all of this freaking out BS normal? It's really sickening.

What will it take for people to trust this franchise? 10 Superbowls? 20?

It's OK for people to question individual moves, of course, but to lose faith in BB and crew and accuse them of losing their fire and basically being incompetent???

WTF!

On an unrelated subject (and yes, what you're seeing is normal... almost a New England sports fan tradition) I just wanted to mention that everytime I see your handle, and I hear the voice in my head say "Patjew" it always makes me want to say "Bless You". It's just a very sneezy-sounding name.

For this day and age, yes it's normal. The Patriots are popular and football is fast becoming a year-round sport. That's a lethal combination when fans see other teams making moves while our hometown boys are standing pat.

I agree with you, lots of people are doing the chicken-little dance right now. It's unwarranted because there's plenty of talent and plenty of time left.

And, not to perpetuate stereotypes, but it certainly seems as if the new people on the board are the ones questioning the lack of moves.

It's normal for 3/14. On 3/16 is when they start pulling out their eyebrows.

You mean like NEM.
Yes it is sickening but if the we could get the threads from this time two years ago you will see the same type of posts.

Thanks dude.

Put the emphasis on "pat" and not "jew" and it will sound better.

And BTW, do you think BB is slipping by not signing more Jews. Re-sign Miller now!

Nope, sorry, doesn't work for me since I sneeze with the accent on the first sylable. ('AAAAAAAAAAAAA-chooo'.. I'm a big in the wind-up whereas the wife is big in the delivery, she goes 'aaaa-CHOOOOOO')

But thanks for trying.

patjew,

This GARBAGE is, for this site, utterly out of the ordinary. This site, and those who post here, prides itself on smart, analytical, creative and objective talk about the Patriots. I'm sorry this is your first exposure to it. It is a very poor and inaccurate (mis)representation of what the site is truly like and all about.
