That was on Dec. 12? We must be having global warming with the pansy weather so far this winter. Even Tommy's complaining about it in press conferences.

I'l never forget Shula with the veins popping out of his neck and face. I've never seen anyone so mad. Wish they had that tape.

This is probably my favorite article about the patriots. People forget this was a bumbling, shoe-string sideshow franchise.

The Patriots have been overachievers the past two years. It doesn't have the talent to compensate for injuries, and it wins so much because it puts in 99% effort in the regular season and plays with terrific schemes to mask its deficiencies.

But in the playoffs a good team at 99% will not beat emotional, talented teams that play at 100%. It's what happened against the Giants in 2011 and the Ravens in 2012.

What a great story.

A prison parolee saves the Pats!!

Thank goodness they didn't have mandatory terms back then.

That is a fantastic article. Makes me laugh every time. God, I think I actually miss those days. Most people have no idea what being a Patriots fan was really like before 2001.
