He takes the blame for a lot of what the owners are actually responsible for. He’s a useful idiot.

 

[Thelonious]

Well, good for him. What the heck.

So does she inherit the team when Bob leaves us? Serious question here. Would she move it to Harford?...

Im sure the Kraft's have all of that locked down thru wills, trusts, etc all prepared by a highly paid team of elite lawyers... no way she takes ownership of the team, his son will take over when he passes

Ol' Krafty Bob had a couple of cute flower girls at the wedding.....

So is Kraft's continued friendship, support and loyalty to Goodell the worst thing he's done?

Still comes in second to keeping the flying elvis, enemy blue jerseys, enemy silver stripeless helmets etc. since he bought the team ten months after their perpetration

[intercom]"Sir, Mr. Goodell is here to see you."

"Yes, yes, send him in Miss Pickle Weasel."

"You wanted to see me, Sir?"

"Yes, Roger, come on in, have a seat. So, how is everything going?"

"Very well, Sir, thank you, Sir."

"Well, Roger, I'm sending you on an important assignment. You're aware of the Patriots' impending move to Hartford?"

"Yes, Sir, it's very exciting, Hartford is of course very close to us, right down the road from Bristol..."

"Yes, well, you see, this may not be in our best interests."

"What do you mean, Sir?"

"Well, this is a really sweet deal, but I want you to go up there to Boston and work with everybody to try and keep the team in Foxborough."

"Sir, with all due respect, this is the Patriots. I mean, you said it yourself, 'The Patriots damaged the league'. Why do this for them?"

"We're not. Look, this is the greatest deal I’ve ever seen. For them. Not us. The Boston media market is the sixth-largest TV market in the country. We don't want to lose it."

"How will I do this?"

"We're putting some contacts together. You'll be hearing from Paul Kirk. The biggest roadblock to the team staying in Massachusetts is the State House, the Speaker, Tom Finneran. They would never deal with Billy Sullivan, and I suppose I don't blame them. But this Kraft...he's different. And he worships us, Roger. He's a real kiss-ass. Use discretion in this thing, Son. The team and the state are prohibited by the contract from negotiating with each other directly. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Sir."

"You should be able to do much of this by phone."

"Yes, Sir. When do you want be to leave?"

"Be ready right after the new year."

"Do you want me to call you about the progress?"

"I don't need the blow by blow, right now I'm dealing with some rumblings about the Broncos violating the salary cap, and, well, if it turns out to be true I'll probably have to at least slap them on the wrist...Now, if it were the Patriots, of course, well, ha ha ha..."

"Ha ha ha ha ha."

[both laughing]

"Hey, you know what tomorrow is the twenty-second anniversary of?"

"No, Sir."

"Twenty-two years ago, the Patriots almost won the Super Bowl. Would have screwed up everything for us. Dodged a bullet out there in Oakland."

"Really."

"Now Roger, you should know this: If you pull this thing through, it's gonna raise your cred. Seriously. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Sir."

"Could lead you anywhere. Maybe even right here, when I'm ready to step down someday. What do you think?"

"Sounds great, Sir."

"Excellent. Excellent. Tell Jane Merry Christmas for me, will you?"

"Yes, Sir, thank you, Sir."

Something tells me that Bob Kraft has a will that involves his sons getting the team, not his new wife.

And stipulates that the flying elvis, blue jerseys, silver helmets stay permanently

"Roger got me out of that Hartford deal. Thank goodness. That would have been a mess. I'll always owe him."

Actually, Kraft holds Goddell blameless, just doing the (other) owners' bidding.

And he thinks the flying elvis is a legit logo.
