The actual story - Bruschi will sit out the preseason (supposedly Brady would be frustrated by THIS after 3 years of injury-plagued seasons). Then they had a follow-up where they jokingly reported the signing of Eddie Berlin ("a guy who will actually show up to practice"). Had a few sound bites from Brady about him wanting to "have his best year" and is "working with some new faces".
Yeah, sounds like he's about to quit the team in frustration. When the media turns on you, they go all the way.

We have the potentially best QB ever in the NFL history and I thought the team is screwing him around. Unlike the Indy Colts who did everything they could to keep their best WRs for Manning, we have done the opposite, forcing Brady to start all over again with his WR's. The team has to understand that our BEST opportunity to win another Lombardi is NOW, with Brady entering the prime of his career.
You know, they could remove ESPN from directTV, and it would take me months to notice. Unless you're a diehard baseball fan, there's no reason whatsoever to tune in.

What you don't seem to understand is the potentially best QB ever in the NFL history makes average receivers good, and good receivers great. If David Givens came up with the Saints, he'd probably be out of football. If Branch came up with the Vikings, he'd be an OK second tier receiver. If a guy like Reche Caldwell had been drafted by the Patriots, he would have signed a Givens-like contract in the offseason with the Titans.
Brady's decision-making and accuracy allow WRs to excel.

Even if branch is signed i think the management is pushing for a more 3 good receiver set which we never had which means he needs to get another 2 guys in .
with the spread it offence with multiple tightends we need 2 solid good 1B receivers rather than one 1A receiver.
do not compare to manning the dolts have given too much money tothe offence and sacrifice their defence which build to stop the hailmary attitude the opposing team get into because of the lead the offence puts up.Their coach even says that they will face big offences only a once or twice which will be a big physical mismatch ie playoffs which he is prepared to loss.
if the dolts offence is slowed they loss is that what you guys want?.

I'm going to break my rule and say this is the dumbest post of the year.
The Patriots stacked the O this year with:
1) 4 TE's (2 of them 1st Rounders)
2) went out and got a 1st Round RB (the one the Colts REALLY wanted, btw) to go along with Dillon, Faulk and Pass
3) now has one of the most (if not THE most) young, solid and deep OL's in the NFL. Meanwhile, what's up with the Indy OL?
4) Chad Jackson in Round 2 - - who was almost universally expected to be a 1st Rounder.
Mikey, you're a broken record and you couldn't be more wrong. At this point, your post is nothing more than a disinformation campaign.

Watching games up in the press box, you can see that Givens doesn’t get much separation from defensive backs. You can also see Brady deliver the ball before Givens even makes his break, almost always putting it right on the money. This is the problem I think Givens is going to encounter in Tennessee. When a receiver doesn’t have a Hall of Fame-type quarterback like Brady delivering the ball, he has to get more open and I’m not sure Givens can do that. I agree Givens is a better blocker than Branch and I also agree that Branch struggles when he’s double-teamed, but I think he has more physical ability than Givens. Branch runs crisp routes and his speed and quickness make him a difficult matchup for most defensive backs. One thing I know for sure: players like Givens, Branch and David Patten should pick up a phone and thank Brady for all the money getting thrown their way. Patten saw what happens when Brady isn’t throwing him the ball and I think Givens is in for the same rude awakening.

ok, one post related to the topic
Sportscenter is becoming like Entertainment Tonight or Access Hollywood when it comes to its stories- worst example:
(Upon Doug Flutie's retirement)
"Find out what Patriot will NOT be a part of their drive for a 4th Lombardi trophy."
You know, I read three different sports-related messageboards and on all three in the last 24 hours a thread has been started with this same title. I wonder why?
