Great find! Great read!
Has some quotes and stories I haven't read before and I'd like to think I've read them all.
Here is a jewel:
He (BB)practically scoffed at the idea that Haynesworth could be his greatest coaching challenge.
“I’m telling you, we’ve had some guys,” said Belichick, his voice trailing off to emphasize the point. “Now, I know it’s only been a few days, but I would definitely say, so far, so good. I would say there were other players I have coached that within 24 hours … it started. You knew it wasn’t going to work.”
Ocho-“It’s everything,” Ochocinco said, “not just what you see on the field, it’s how we work in meetings. Every little thing has to be right or you’re getting ripped. Everybody gets ripped, even Tom [Brady], me, everybody. In Cincinnati, nobody ever said anything to Carson [Palmer]. Not here, because that’s the expectation. I love it. They expect perfection. You don’t hear the coaches saying, ‘Good play.’ That’s what you’re supposed to do.”
He's drinking a lot of the kool aid.
Quote:
Haynesworth-“I’ve been around some really good teams, like that year [2008] we were 10-0 in Tennessee. But this is another 20 percent above that in terms of what everybody expects. We had a great coach in [former Titans coach] Jeff Fisher, but Belichick is beyond even that. He doesn’t let anything slip through the cracks. Not one little thing. It all has to be right.”
He is drinking the koolaid
Ocho keeps saying being in new england is like being in HEAVEN!! Haynesworth before coming to the NFL is a Patriots fan. They are going to do great for out team. I AM SO EXCITED!!
As for the 33-year-old Ochocinco, his sense of relief is constant. He talked about the morning last week when agent Drew Rosenhaus texted him, “Emergency, call ASAP.”
“I’m thinking, ‘Yeah, what could this be?’ ” Ochocinco said, sarcastically. “I called Drew and he said, ‘[Bengals owner] Mike [Brown] has agreed to trade you to New England.’ I just dropped the phone and started crying. I was just bawling. You know how it is on draft day when you finally get selected. It was like draft day all over again.”
Driven by that emotion, Ochocinco is doing everything right. He stayed after practice with Wes Welker(notes) to catch extra passes from Brady and didn’t leave the field until talking to Belichick (the two became oddly close during the Pro Bowl in 2007). On Wednesday night, he already looked in sync with Brady on some important plays.
There will be alot of surprised fans around the league if these two perform to what is expected.......The fit seems to be there...let's hope the Pats get out of the gate fast and watch the enthusiasm make everything they do seem effortless.....If AH and Ocho are rejuvinated...this team will be scary good....
but that's just the homer in me......

Chad Jackson comes to mind. Serious body language at the training camps.

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck." RAH

Ocho is showing he wants to be here. Staying late after practice to get in sync with Brady. Haynesworth must be excited just the fact he is lining up next to wilfork. I would be happy to. Patriots have class, and it shows it that the first person ocho and haynesworth met first was Mr. Kraft. I hope the Patriots win a superbowl this season for Mr. Kraft and Myra Kraft!!
