What you don't know yet is later in the future you changed your mind and told yourself in the medium future you know what you're about to do, and don't do it. Just be patient.
Either way if the hit man was named Butters, I wouldn't hold my breath.

We all know Vrabel is a genius, but the only way he becomes head coach that soon is if future BF80 mails him some incriminating photos of BB.
Seriously, though, I would much rather see Vrabel be HC for the Pats than for the Buckeyes . . . after he goes to Columbus and sets up a Pats pipeline there.

There's a thread for that.

Re: If You'd been Visited by Patsfans of the Future
Considering I wrote this on 8/11/06, when much of that had already transpired:
Quote:
Miami is the quintassential example of a team that had a few breaks to give it a better record than you would expect, and then people using that improper baseline for the following year?s projections.
(Previous examples of this include 04 Bills, 04 Falcons, 03 Dallas and 01 Pats)
That was a 6-10 team last year that caught a few lucky breaks. Just a cursary glance at their ?remarkable? run to end the season shows the following:
* Against SD, even though they had the advantage of knowing every line call (SD?s coaches decided not to change them for this game even though Miami had the ex-OL coach) they barely pulled it out.
* Buffalo blew a 23-3 3rd quarter lead because they started coasting too early.
* Brooks Bollinger had this line at Miami!
C/ATT YDS TD INT
28/42 327 2 0
The Jets had a 1st and 5 on the 14 with just over a minute to go in a game decided by 4 points. Another skate against a bad team.
* And the Pats nearly won playing scond and third stringers for 3 quarters. This included a QB that hadn?t played 3 full quarters since high school, a practice squad WR playing CB, etc.
I see Miami being an improved team, but taking a step backwards recordwise. I will be shocked if they win more than 8 games.
The Jets, on the other hand, are going to win at least 7 games. They were just the opposite in that their record was pushed down due to outside circumstances. Oddly enough, the recent team that they are most similar to is Miami in 2004. And, just as I was surprised at how many people didn?t realize that Miami would certainly win at least 6-7 games just by having a normal camp in 05, the same holds true for the NYJ. As long as they don?t lose Pennington again, they are definitely not a 4-5 win team.
Oh, and even though NE has many more questions than usual, it would take a series of injuries even worse than last year for them to win less than 11 games with their schedule. Take the over.
I can't say that I am surprised at either NE's success or their large AFCE lead.
That said, I think you did a fabulous job of helping us shift our focus from the minor negative points to the overall positive position this team is in. I stil am not convinced that NE isn't the best team in the league. Yes, it perturbs me that NE has looked discombobulated during their two major tests, but for now I can explain each one away. Another and I will have to admit that NE might be a very good, but not great team.
