It could be dns. Try plugging in opendns servers IP numbers in to your network configuration control panel. You would allow your computer to use DHCP, but change your DNS to use manual. Then enter these servers.

208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220

Save and try the website again after closing your browser.

If that does not work, you might have "warn when visiting a fraudulent website"
checked in your Security browser settings. Uncheck it and retry.

hope that helps

remember to change your DNS setting back if it doesn't work.

That seems like a fitting freudian slip. The Patriots' website sucks so bad it should be the Jets' website.

The OP is writing about Patriots.com, not Patsfans.com, Captain.

I was so blinded by my hatred of patriots.com I didn't even notice that.

I had us switched over to two machines last year - and we haven't had any issues since, even with 5,000+ on here. So no - there hasn't been any problems with the forum since the beginning of last year, and there won't be any problems this season.

As for Patriots.com my complaint is the Bob's Furniture guy coming and blasting out through my speakers every single time I go onto it. Very annoying

It is the worst website in the world.

What I do, is use google advanced search, limit domain name patriots.com and just search for terms from there.

I can't go there any more. If I have to look up a player on the roster, I force myself, but it's so slow and so busy with so much junk, it's an effort.

Someone got enamored with the technology and didn't test the site over a slow link (or with an adult mind).

Over there, I watch Patriots Today, the Press Conferences, All Access (the weekly hour long Pats show, Patriots Football Weekly (1/2 hr. weekly show), and never miss a PFW In Progress webcast or In The Huddle. I e-mail them and my stuff gets read on-air within 30 minutes.
And even during the painfully boring training camp weeks, they have daily reports on who's performing well, who's not, and all that ridiculously obscure data like that all you guys love to lap up like the footbawl starved junkies most of us are.

I have no freaking clue what you guys are complaining about. No other team comes close to matching The Pats official website. Go around the league. Pats site is second to none. Ooo, takes more than 5, 10, 20 seconds to load? Kick back and daydream about something else you like then. Big fricking deal. Oh, you guys pretend like your time is worth something. Wrong. I'd happily wait a little while longer to get to somewhere I REALLY want to go.

('specially that Saints guy up there. Listen to that effing technobabble. I HATE that *****. Wtf were those commands? The launching sequence for the dang space shuttle? Good thing I have a Mac and don't have to tie my head in knots following those directions. The freaking equivalent of the cyberspece Hokey-Pokey."Put yer right foot in, put yer right foot out, put yer right foot in and shake it all about." No thanks, dude. The day I'm on a website giving commands as freaking bazaar as his, someone call the men in black, please.)

Hey, I remember when my dad would be up on the roof screwing with the antennae in southwest Connecticut so we could watch snowy Pats broadcasts on an obscure channel. When the cameras would show full field shots, we couldn't tell what was happening. Only when they did close ups could we piece together what must have been transpiring up in wonderful Foxboro. Every once in a while, they'd flash the score and then we'd get our "update".

Now we can access all this other mad data, audio & video galore, all 24/7/365. What a bunch of crying beatches you all are!!! I swear. I'm really taken aback on this thread over here. Patjew, you surprised me this one time.
