Re: Garo Yepremian not impressed
Just read this in the Boston Globe..
Guard Bob Kuechenberg wasn't as willing to spread the praise.
"They've done a heck of a job thus far but now the exhibition season is over and the real season begins," he said.
"Obviously, if they can win their first playoff game, beat an even more dangerous Colts team, and then Brett Favre or the Dallas Cowboys in the Super Bowl, I will be the first to take my hat off to them. If they can pull it off, they will have earned it.
"But my heart is dead set against it. The '72 team is uniquely immortal in American sports and I don't want us to lose that special place."
Kuech is 100% accurate in his assesment of what the Pats need to do to truly join them as "immortal".
It's irrational posessiveness. Kuech is a sucessful businessman. It's not like his life took a bad turn.
