Hi Everyone,
So it's the down time in football and there is nothing really happening in terms of real news. And I certainly don't want to talk Defamegate, even with a decision presumably coming down the pike this week.
So I turn my attention to something I've thought about and meant just to spark some banter and maybe keep things a bit interesting around here. So here . . .
Am I the only one who worries about Brady getting hurt doing it so much? I know I know, he's a football player and tough as nails. But man, he's taken some shots. I remember Troy P. trying to bend him in the opposite direction (I wanted to jump through the screen and likely get pummeled by a ferocious, finely tuned NFL safety). I remember the B'more game (I believe it was the playoffs) where he almost does a full front flip before getting hit square in his back in an almost upside down position. I hate when he scrambles more than anything else, even though I fully admit that I think he's gotten so much better at it and seems to be more willing to escape the pocket . . . as willing as a slow, pocket-passing QB can be. But the Pats seem to use the QB sneak so much, and ****, it works so much so I get why. It just makes me so nervous. Brady getting hit at all these days drives me bonkers.
I know it's not the biggest thing in the world and I'm at the bottom of the barrel now. I'm salivating for football and, though July 27 is not that long away really, it's still long enough away that I'm going stir crazy. I LOVE THE PATRIOTS!!!
