I remember Chester well, great, great interior DT in his day. Tough news.

I never understood why threads like this get 5 stars?

I thought 5 stars usually means a good or positive thing?

Most likely it is the same person who gives five stars to every Pats injury report, and one star to every Pats award such as player of the week.

However, five stars to every thread that is about someone who has passed away is indeed mind-boggling. My guess is the imbecile that does this saw the title of the thread, had no idea who he was, and assumed he was a former Patriot.

Ironically this person is probably a Jets fan and has no clue that McGlockton once played for the Jets.
