From a Mitt supporter... that's funny.

I LOVE THIS .GIF!!!! It's not just a big man destoying a little man, look at the details. He makes a pretty athletic move to get in position, puts his shoulder into the ribs, his head on the ball, wraps his arms and drives his legs through. Textbook. This guy is incredibly gifted and a close...

It's enforced from the spot of the foul. Since they already picked up the first it would have stood but would have been 1st and 10 from the 24.

The owners have offered to open their books to a mutually acceptable third party. Opening them to the players will just open them up to pressure of public image by "exposing" expenses that seem worse in public opinion than reality.

I think its a bad sign meaning they are WAY OFF and no where near agreement, but at the same time a good sign that they are trying to find a way to bridge that wide gap.

First, I've never had that argument used against me. Kudos. Second, the rest of your post explains the thought proccess making it not a no brainer. An onside kick when you have no other way of getting the ball back is a no-brainer. Again, I agree with the call but it took HUGE BALLS to make.

I don't care how much you agree with that call. It was FAR from a no brainer. Even once you cross the 50 you put some thought into 4th and 1. You do recall our last 4th and 1, right? Went for about -3 yds. I did love the call, though. It was a great moment. BB basically said if you can't...

Re: Globe:BB rejects Lions #2 (33) for Cassel CASSEL DID HAVE A SAY!!! No team would trade for him w/o agreeing to a long term deal first. If BB wanted to make the deal w/ Detroit but Cassel refused to agree to a long term deal Detroit wouldn't go through with it. Why give up the #2...

I look at green as a starter. BB likes to keep the DL rotating and fresh. If you break down the snaps I'll bet he's pretty close to Warren, Wilfork and Seymour. Also, Green can play DT or DE. I don't think he can play NT.

He's got to be one of the happiest guys in the NFL!!! Lost in all this talk about there being no market for Cassel is this HUGE fact. Any trade would be dependant on Cassel's willingness to sign a new long term deal. This guy went from a nobody, just happy to be camp fodder to having a...

Exactly, same reason NE needs to convince people they're willing to keep Cassel to increase his value. Other teams need to convince NE they have other options besides Cassel to decrease his value. Anything you hear "leaked" from a GM was probably "leaked" by the GM...

I think BB is just trying to sell the notion that if McFadden is there, he either picks him or trades with someone who will. With some immediate needs and a top pick I seriously doubt BB takes another RB. But in order to get good value he needs other GM's to believe he will. Otherwise, why...

Brady wasn't perfect. I wouldn't say he played poorly. BB got outcoached badly but on Off, not Def. If you only give up 17 pts you should win. Not to mention on the last drive your teams best corner (Samuel) has a shot at a tough INT and misses. Then your best Safety (Harrison) drops an...

Re: Robert Kraft and Patriots on CNBC his best line was his last talking about success in general not just football... "If you're not passionate about winning, get out of your business. There are easier ways to make money."
