Thank you, that's a very nice looking design (far and away better and classier than the current).@Actual Pats Fan
Remember this?
By your logic we should still be wearing this and Pat Patriot is an abomination too.
Flying Elvis is closing in on 30 years in a few years, has a bigger following than Pat ever did, and more heroes and victories.Thank you, that's a very nice looking design (far and away better and classier than the current).
I've never suggested that this original should be restored, but any logo that's been established as a team's identity for over thirty years, and for a franchise with a world-wide following and yes, lots of victories and heroes on the field, does not deserve
With regard to victories, your math is correct. You're batting .333, which, if this were baseball, would be pretty good.Flying Elvis is closing in on 30 years in a few years, has a bigger following than Pat ever did, and more heroes and victories.
Not one that counts...Don't forget to savor these times. Rarely in football do you have a ride like this. Add that recently the Red Sox, Celtics, and Bruins have won championships - has any town done that before?
Of course not; in fact, the league wasn't expecting or even wanting Kraft to swoop in as he did.
But Bledsoe likewise did not save the franchise, and Orthwein's sermon that the franchise was "broken and ridiculed" any more than any other NFL franchise was horseshit.

The NFL said, "You are a bush league, no class, loser, scum, unworthy organization and sports environment, and your fan base consists of:
-people who have not been sober more than ten minutes
-people who have not called themselves fans for more than ten minutes
-people with attention spans of no more than ten minutes
-people who have not been alive for more than ten minutes
-people who have memories no longer than ten minutes
-people who neither know nor care anything about football, or tradition, or history"
