Please. This is much ado about nothing. Everyone knows the deal.
He'll be in Foxboro before the end of August.

Well, except Mike Reiss, that is (but what does he know?)

"I really don't have a great read on Waters other than my belief it could go in any direction. Part of me reads into Dan Connolly being more locked into right guard in recent weeks as an indication that the team isn't planning on Waters being back. But then you consider that Waters came in the week before the season opener last year, and why wouldn't he be able to do that again? Just a hard one to assess without all the facts. If Waters has a personal issue that is keeping him at home in Texas, it completely alters the picture."
Maybe you're right and he'll be back, but the question needs asking.
Mike, did you see how the Pats raced to cut Dane Fletcher (a risky move)?
Have they done the same with Waters for that precious roster spot?
The fact that Water's jersey number had not been given out to anyone indicates to me that it's more likely than not that he is coming back.
None of us know whether the F.O. Has heard much from Waters,but if he has not communicated much about his decision,I feel that is an injustice to this team being kept on a tightrope not knowing what the starting lineup on the OL is going to be by week 1.
Does anyone know what is going on with robert Gallery, he was supposed to be the insurance policy at OG?
....or
Waters: "I need some more money so give it or I'll retire"
IMO, it would be kinda d!ckish to actually leave a team hanging this long if his intention was really to retire. Waters doesn't seem like a d!ckish guy, so my assumption is that he is just waiting out TC and that BB and the team already knows that.
Just can't believe he'd leave a team hanging like that.
I really think he's working out and seeing if his body can take another season. I guess you'd have to feel what it feels like to put crawl out of bed in the morning to realize why so many O linemen just retire without being beat out for a job. Hell, we just had one.
