I hadn't noticed that quote. Thanks, that's good news. Now if only he and Chad can get those honey cured hams working properly...
That article was GREAT! A must read... full of interesting morsels...
I liked what BB had to say about Seau:
"The other day, Monday after the game, I was walking by the meeting room -- and this was before 6 a.m. -- and he was already in there watching film," Belichick said. "He's a football guy. He's into it."
Belichick said Seau has been fun to coach.
"He has a lot of energy on the field and he loves football," Belichick said. "He just wants to do it right, wants to win, and you can't ask any more than that."
--- Looks like Junior is serious about proving he is not washed up... he has found a team that works hard to be the best and he seems to be taking to that attitude very well. I think this guy is going to really help us this year... I think he is going to be better than Ted Johnson had he hung around this long.

Junior may stick around past this year. he's played for so few playoff-level teams that right now he must be really happy.
Wonderful! Clearly Junior is dead serious about wanting a championship.
I think the Pats' success over the last few years is a two-edged sword. It helps to attract veteran players who have played well, but who have never won a ring, like Seau, but it is also a factor in losing good players who want big dough for being a part of that success and might also have developed a bit of a "been there, done that" attitude.
We have added a hungry vet who was at some point in his career a Pro bowler in each of the last two superbowl years. I excluded the 2001 season because I don't think New England was thought of as the best place to try and win a championship.
2003 we added Harrison in 2004 we added Dillon and last year we added noone. Hopefully Seau will fit the trend of 03 and 04.

Although I agree, in '01, NE was not necessarily the place to be, we did add a Pro Bowl talented player that year, that was a solid addition, Bryan Cox.

I was going to add him but it went against my premise. I don't believe he came here thinking that this was the best place to go to try and win a championship.

Before we get too excited here, we all know that BB sometimes says nice things about players that he doesn't really mean. Remember Grammatica was kicking great and Monty Beisel had made great progress, except that they didn't make the team.
