Someone trying to make a name needs to relax. If StallMorris flunks another drug test, then fine. As of now, the basis of this article is retarded and short-sighted.

I think it's pretty simple. We have the most cap room we have ever had under Belichick and there have been an availability of players who we believe fit our system.

Whether Stallworth clicks or not, this writer is a dirtbag.

Look at what a doofus this guy looks like. How can you take his opinion seriously?

In all seriousness, the Bill Belichick Patriots live and die by one code: will ____ help the New England Patriots be a Super Bowl caliber team. From there, BB goes on a case by case basis to see if a player is right for the team.

For the love of the Football Gods, please give me a break. If the Pats were sitting here with $20 million under the cap and not spending any money I guarantee that they would be ripped for being cheap by this moron writer and everyone else.
BB/Pioli went out and spent money on some players that they think will fit our system and some of these mediots still complain.
LEAVE OUR TEAM THE F'K ALONE THEN, AND GO WRITE ABOUT SOME OTHER TEAM!!

It really does feel like we can't win when it comes to the media. No matter what someone is going to be unhappy.

The writer is Greg Doyel....he made his living writing crap for Sportsline on college hoops. As a Seton Hall fan....I'm pretty familliar with his "work". He's busted us with similar articles more than once.

He was their lead College hoops writer before he was promoted to a national, all sports writer.

I can't believe these paragraphs from the article:

And then there's Randy Moss, one of the 10 most despicable players in the league, who has been linked to the Patriots in trade talks.

And there's Joey Porter, probably not one of the 10 most despicable players in the NFL but among those also receiving votes, who was contacted by the Patriots during free-agency but took his slur-hurling mouth and horse-killing dogs to Miami. Porter headed south after turning down an offer from the Bengals, who have a press conference every week to stress their new devotion to character and then do something ridiculous like pursue Porter or sign a player (defensive end Jason Berryman on Jan. 2) who spent 258 days in jail while in college.

The Patriots aren't the Bengals. But they're closing the gap one disappointing day at a time.


So the Pats were rumored to be interested in Moss and Porter (the Moss interest has been disputed) and that is evidence that the Pats are closing the gap with the Bengals as taking on problemed players. Is this even journalism.

I also love how just because Stallworth is in the substance-abuse program that he is a problem child. Guess what? Brett Favre is in the substance-abuse program too and one strike away from getting a four game suspension. Yet, Favre is considered one of the better character players in the game. Without knowing why Stallworth is in the substance-abuse program it is unfair to judge.

By the way, Stallworth was grating the Eagles so much that they gave him a contract offer.
