Hello from Winnipeg - New England Patriots Forums

Hey everyone! Long-time lurker here, figured I'd finally start participating.

Just briefly, I took to the Patriots as a young kid because I thought the minuteman logo was the coolest thing ever. I finally got to see my first live NFL game in 1996 (preseason game between the Pats and Eagles at Foxboro), and I've been a diehard ever since.

Looking forward to spending some time here and killing my work productivity even further.

I started following the Patriots in the '70s. Mack Herron played here in Winnipeg for our CFL club, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. He had two very productive years here, then ran into some off-field problems. He was cut, and the Patriots picked him up. He had a couple more productive years in New England before he fizzled out. I've been a supporter of the Patriots ever since....
