I have a funny suspicion that sometimes BB just likes to give to this board some of what he regularly serves in his pressroom. With the same grin ...
BB to Caserio: "Nick, I'm bored.....Every year, the same ol' thing.....contention for the playoffs if not the Super Bowl.....win, win, win.....it just get boring ", and he lets out a long sigh.
Caserio: "How about completely changing the offense? Maybe a 4 tight end offense?"
BB: "No, that would piss off Tom....and I've got to stay on his good side, he says when he runs for President he may make me his Press Secretary", he briefly chortles, "then I can really screw with the press."
Caserio: "Well, how about screwing with the Pats Fans? How about cutting their favorite player?"
BB: "No, everyone on this team is just too dang likable and professional, I've dumped all of the knuckleheads. I hate to cut somebody just because I'm bored"
Caserio: "Well, then, how about unexpectedly extending someone that the Pats Fans hate?"
BB: starting to brighten, "well, that's an idea....who is it on the team that is the most under appreciated by the Pats Fans self proclaimed experts"....."How about Freeney?"...."Once we extend him, we can ask him to start going full speed just to drive the fans crazy!".....BB giggles uncontrollably for a few seconds......"Call Freeney's agent!"
