Interesting Patriots story

[upstater1]

I had dinner with Tom the other night and I told him I thought he was awesome. He then told me he's going to play lefty next year. Do you believe it? Oh yeah, I picked up his tab.


Threads like this are absolutely ridiculous internet fan-boy fodder. My rant is done.

I had Gisele. Later she told me that Tom is nothing special.

I agree with you, but I think its unfair to call Hawkins a journeyman when he's played with three teams in his entire NFL career and made it through every training camp so far when healthy.

For the skeptical: Hawkins should be confident about being part of this team. He can play every spot in the defensive secondary. That counts for something.

A journeyman means a good player but not pro bowl caliber.

One of the definitions is experienced and competent, doesn't mean he's bounced around.

Like a journeyman craftsman is good, but not a master crafstman.

By the end of last season, Hawkins was the weak link in the secondary. He was getting burned and he's lost enough where he is NOT a viable option at CB anymore.

Not saying he is, in fact he made the team as a substitute safety.

I guess I didn't make position clear, when I said rookies, I meant i hope the Pats draft 1 or 2 CBs and a safety high. with all those greenhorns, we need someone with the steadiness and leadership of Hawkins.

His "we don't need cornerbacks" statement was pure bravado. The guys a competitor.

I met Bill Belichick in 2000 at a gentlemen's club in upstate NY. I told him that Tom Brady from Michigan could turn out to be the next Joe Montana. I also told him that David Terrel would be a complete flop becuase he seems to be a slacker and that Koren Robinson would have a few good seasons but then he would become a drunk and be a non-factor. I said Richard Seymour Defensive tackle from Georgia would fit great in the 3-4.


Then I met him at the same Gentlemen's club in 2005 after the 3rd superbowl victory. Bill thanked me and bought me a beer. Good times.

You just stole my story... didn't you????

I had her last night. She was nothing special as well... I think that this post needs 2 go to be merged with this one: http://www.patsfans.com/new-england-patriots/messageboard/showthread.php?t=41889

My friends at a bar last weekend drinking and shooting the ****e, and he sees Artrell Hawkins at the bar. Some kid at the bar approaches him, and says the pats are going to be awesome this year. Hawkins looks at the kid and goes "NO...were going to be f**king nasty this year". The kid and his friends starting talking about the draft and if the pats should draft a CB, and Artrell apparently said we dont need no corners.

Thought I would share that.

If we don't need no corners, does that really mean that we do need corners because that's like a double negative, right? lol

It's not only like a double negative, it is one
