And now choosing to be introduced as a team....
 
Great piece on ESPN on the 2001 team telling the league FU we are being introduced as a team. Brushci, Brady, Law, Milloy, BB all in it. Wish I taped it.
I did not know that since then all teams are introduced as a team at the SB now.

Egomaniac Keyshawn is now saying its unfair to the players who want to be in the spotlight. "They ruined it for everyone" Cris Carter of course agrees its about the individuals.
Young and Tom Jackson understand its about team.

Yep,the NFL stole the signature introduction NE had established...it should never have been copied again,that was a special team and moment.

Was just watching that clip before ESPN started that segment. I haven't been able to find a clip of the intro exclusively but it is within this video:

Super Bowl 36 Patriots-Rams pt 3 - YouTube

One of my favorite parts of the Patriots being introduced as a team is contrasting it to Ray Lewis just one year earlier, when he literally danced his way through his introduction. Seems about right.

Carter simply is the antiPatriot. He lacks discpline in every way, he is a prima dona and readily admits it. He is a look at me guy who is analyzing a team sport, and naturally often comes down on the wrong side of the one team that truly epitomizes that team first attitude.

His comments were something to the effect of yeah its a team sport but a team is a bunch of individuals, and some are better than others, and those better ones deserve the opportunity to hear their name and run out there.

Born narcicist.

Just another reason why WRs should never be analysts. They are the least likely former players to understand the very basic nature of the game itself. For them it has been all about them, all the time. Its small wonder that so many gravitate to a medium that allows the the SAME environment. Once again its ALL about them.

....and I wonder if Chris is going to lobby for a football HOF JUST for WR's. Maybe THEN he'll get in. :D

Makes me wonder if given the choice, would Carter take a SuperBowl win over a HOF induction. Wait, I think I already answered my question...:bricks:

My own recording starts with Pam Oliver talking to Troy Brown. Same boat [sigh] I'm more vigilant these days...
