Tavai: “Booing fans should know their place”

[RobertWeathers]

Dayum…

Yep. Megan Fox in "Subservient" was elite but shes had so much work done. Not as natural as Kay

 

[alvinnf]

Still gets the message across.

Krafts more worried about his next massage than the message.

Would a "LET'S GO MAYO" chant be out of line?

“WE-WANT-VRA-BEL”

Would a "LET GO OF MAYO" chant be out of line?

 

[RobertWeathers]

“WE-WANT-VRA-BEL”

I demand the fans attending the game make that happen..

Would a "LET'S GO MAYO" chant be out of line?

A) Mayo triggers diahria.

B) Hold the Mayo.

 

[Ross12]

B) Hold the Mayo.

“Hold the Mayo” is bad because Kraft will mishear it as “Hold Mayo”, as in hold onto him another year

I was in the camp of they won't fire Mayo but now I'm in the camp that if they don't completely clean house and fire Mayo and anyone else from the BB era then they are a completely unserious team who is fine with punting next season too.

Kraft obviously doesn't understand the predicament he is in. Either he fires everyone and buys some good will from the fans who will see he finally is recognizing the problem is deeply rooted in the culture. Or he keeps Mayo, changes a couple useless coordinator positions and we do this all over next year WHILE completely losing the trust of the fanbase who was already ready to make that decision a year ago and there's no one left to take the fall but Kraft him self.

He can't continue to hide behind X is the reason we're in this mess without everyone coming to the conclusion the he is the common denominator in every bad decision this franchise has made since the last Superbowl.

Don't forget Dukes.

Every single week there is some unreal BS coming out of Foxborough. It doesn't stop.

Mayo needs to be fired. Period.

So let’s say they keep Mayo.

Fans aren’t happy with it and so many stop going. They have 20,000 empty seats every home game (maybe more).

Let’s say each of those fans that would’ve otherwise gone would have spent an average of $100 in parking, concessions, alcohol, and local shopping.

That’s $100 x 20,000 x 9 home games, or $18 million dollars, lost in one season.

This goes up even more if you consider lost income on secondary market ticket sales, or if even fewer fans go to the game.

This more than makes up for the sunk cost of Mayo’s deal and paying to bring in Vrabel, staff changes, etc. I’m sure they have analytics that show them this.

I think you just did their “analytics” for them.
Seems like pretty simple math.

 

[ViperGTS]

WTF cares about money. You have a shot at the trifecta. A rookie franchise looking like QB, most cap space, almost 150 million, and if they don't **** around the 1st pick in an albeit weak draft.

There isn't a bigger holy crap signal that can be hoisted up for any of the top young football minds. I thought last year was going to be the best it could be. Nope, it's this year.

**** the draft is only 4 months away. Think about that.

I mean analytics based on the real numbers, not just assumptions.

The issue is that it wouldn't go down like this. The first few games will still be filled because there's always opening day hype and off season promise and whatever. Also season ticket holders aren't going to just eat the cost. They'll sell them on the secondary market. So even if those tickets become more affordable due to demand, there's more people that will say "oh hey I can finally afford a Pats game".

Maybe at the end of the year when the season is lost, sure.

I will never be able to unsee this!

I don't know what looks worse: him defending his actions or defending opposing offenses.
