Great list. Agree with pretty much every bullet. Favorite loss for me was the Stupor Bowl. That was really a win.

Thanks. I thought it would be a fun, positive exercise that others could join in on.

And what is this Stupor Bowl that you mention? As far as I know the 2007 season ended with the AFCCG for some reason.

How could I forget Favorite Game???

I think mine would be the 1986 season finale when Grogan came off the bench to beat the Fins in the Orange Bowl to clinch the AFC East.

I'm going to edit my first post to include that.

PS - great choices, thanks for posting them!

The stupor bowl was the final game of the regular season 1981, between the Pats and Colts, then in the same division. They were the worst 2 teams in football and the loser got the #1 pick in the draft, later wasted on Kenny Sims. The Pats were 2-13 and the Colts were 1-14. The Colts won, giving the Pats the #1 pick. It was generally regarded as the worst football game ever played.

Lot of thought required here.

Favorite current Patriot....Wes Welker (reminds me of Troy Brown)

Favorite ever Patriot....Troy Brown.

Favorite ever coach..... Belichick (I hate that I know nothing about my team 1 hour before gametime).

Favorite Performance by a Patriot......Law in the 2003 AFCCG.

Season from a first year Patriot.....(tie) Dillon and Welker and Moss.

Catch.....Moss over the middle one hand grab vs. the Colts in 07. No Patriot reciever makes that catch. Ever.

Uni....Bought a red number 12 and number 80 today. Love the red.

:singing: Ah so, I did not realize that! That's a great one.

Excellent choices, especially the catch. A perfect example of how a great WR can make an all-time great QB even better.

Those uni's must look sweet.

(It's hard not to love Welker, too.)

 

[Rob0729]

Here's Mine:

Current Patriot: Bruschi, but since I will use him in the next one too I will say Brady.

Patriot of all time: Bruschi with Tippett a close second

Game performance by a Patriot: David Patten receiving, passing, and rushing for a TD in a single game

Season from a first-year Patriot: I have to go with Moss

Catch: I don't think I have a favorite so I will go with an unconscious David Patten vs. the Bills (granted it was a fumbled catch recovered by an unconscious Patten, but since he recovered his own fumble and deserves bonus for a heads up recovery while blacked out I will go with it)

Super Bowl: 36.

Regular season game: The game post blizzard against Miami in 2004. I don't know if it would be my favorite if I wasn't there, but it was a fun game for the 40 or so thousand people who were there.

Game I attended: Snow Bowl

Comeback: It wasn't a huge deficit that they came back from, but the Snow Bowl again. The Raiders dominated for three quarters and the Pats smacked their way back in the fourth.

Coaching staff: Hands down 1990.... Ok, 2004

Loss: The Bears' Super Bowl. Or the preseason loss where the Patriots lost Tippett, Ronnie Lippett, and Garvin Veras.

Player that got by on guts: I'll agree with Grogan

Uniform: I agree with old red Pat Patriot uni's.

Most fun terrible season: No terrible season is fun

African American Jewish black belt linebacker: I hear Sammy Davis played the position in high school and had a mean Crane kick (ask Mr. Miagi about that one), but I still have to go with Tip

Most fun terrible season: 1993

African American Jewish black belt linebacker: Tippett

Great list. Loss: November 10, 1980 at Houston on Monday night. My last bar fight.
Game I attended: September of 1960. The Pats' first game ever. It was at BU against the Broncos. I was 12 and I had little idea what my father was taking me to. Ironically, I didn't go to another game until the fall of 1970 when the Pats played the Jets at Harvard Stadium. Because of Joe Namath, I was enamored with the Jets, principally because they had beaten the Colts a year earlier and allowed us AFL fans to shed our inferiority complex forever. At that time, I would have never imagined I could hate the Jets as much as I do now.

 

[Brady to Brown]

I forgot my favorite game.

Bears - Patriots Superbowl, Jan 26, 1986.

The night I became a "real" Patriots fan

Losses and fights must naturally go together.

That's very cool that you went to the Pats first game ever.
