Default Is Patriots Football Weekly a good magazine??

Hey everyone,


Not being from the NE area I never get any patriots news in my sunday papers so I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good pats magazine or newspaper to subscribe to?? So far all Ive heard about is Patriots Football Weekly.

On the PFW radio show Casale has been going off on Ben Watson because he only left his girlfriend at 17.4% tip. Apparently if he was a normal tipper he would have given 30%. I like the guy, but this is among his lamer moments.

Doesn't matter, he's not there anymore.

In the immortal words of Rick Pitino "I don't see Larry, Robert and Kevin walking through that door, do you?".

Why would anyone want to read PFW because Reiss USED to work there?

The guy who is there now complains about 17.4% tips to his waitress/fiancee by a player who just returned from visiting the troops in Iraq on his free time. This same "writer" spends HIS free time coming on here under 4 alias poster names to write innuendo about a rookie that would get him fired if he did it in PFW or his web show. The same "4 alias posters" spent their other board time here labeling Reiss an overrated phony and saying that someone at PFW named Casale is much better and should have his job. Pathetic and embarrassing for a public figure to stoop to that.

I know about Reiss, I read Reiss and that juvenile is no Mike Reiss.

I had it for one year and wasn't overly impressed. To me it was a whole lot of nothing. I didn't renew my subscription.
