April 10, 1982: Miracle on Manchester Although a Bruins fan for life (folks were Gallery Gods), I was fortunate enough to be given a couple of prime "Forum" seats to witness the NHL Kings comeback from 5-0 to defeat the Gretzky-led Oilers in OT. Perhaps being there made the dif or just the...

Yeah, Brady is in a better decision to win in appealing his suspension, but so what? Kraft did the fold so no matter what happens w/Brady, it will be 10-20 years of "cheater". Those other fans will not recognize prior or future SB wins as legitimate. Pats might as well have four (4) more titles...

I'm a fan to the end because I've got no clue as to what it is like rooting for another team. I worked for another team, did my job well, but didn't root for them over the Pats at any time, including the POs. That might seem like a real test, but it isn't. Simple to do. The difficult thing that...

Grief? Geez, I'm in grief that I didn't join this forum years ago. I stuck w/the News Groups from day one and when it came to winning time, I mostly posted on Colts & Steelers forums. No point in preaching to the choir. But now...I have to have a home (the reason I recently joined) because it...

I now regret pulling back on a post I was ready to post a couple of days ago, a post that sort of outlined the difs between Al Davis & Robert Kraft (I have a little insight). I decided that it would probably PO Pats fans so I deleted my words and walked away w/o a post. I'll give the basics I...

I'm too old to go back. Been following and supporting my entire life, including the Sox, Bruins & Celts, but I named my border collie Pats (she has now passed) for a reason and have bragged about the team coast-to-coast (wherever I lived). I worked for another team (investigator), but they all...

Well, I've yet to receive any sort of response from Colts fans so I'll assume that your QB mistakes GOAT for goat. (happens all the time). Aside from that incident at the intersection of Spring & Mattress, how does Luck assess the season "going in". Just another bah, or a breading ground for...

I do find it amazing that given the wide field of presidential candidates, that the media is concentrated on the Patriots, Tom Brady. I love FB, but is it really above the political asperations of Hillary Clinton. What the hell is going on with our country? Why is Brady more important than...

So with all the posts in this thread, are we to assume that the Patriots have f...ed the Colts or did the Colts lay down, spread'em and still got f....ed? If so, it sounds like the Colts wanted to be f....ed. Am I wrong here?

I agree! There's no way the Pats can be allowed to repeat, be allowed to defend their title. As much as I love the speed of NFL games, the more I appreciate the MLB and our Sox. At least BB isn't into the BS of parity, that everyone is a winner. Why is this crap happening to our nation? Anyone?

Goodell pulls Vincent's needle on national tv. That would be amazing, although censored.

I actually do believe it "possible" simply because I've been an investigator thrust into similar situations. It happens. However, I'm also one those folks who are described as a-holes just for doing my job, the job being investigating. I can see Goodell being "blindsided" on the basis that it...

And this is much of the frustration we experience due to the leaks, media & fan opinions. I've worked many high-profile cases over the years and can state that it is unusual to have unlimited interview sessions. If you, the investigator, made mistakes, forgot to ask critical questions, well...

Wells claimed that he had "direct evidence", but we've yet to see it. I'd bet voice-stress, but he can't reveal for obvious reasons. Sorry, but not only can it not be used for evidence, the results are easily manipulated and not admissible in any court. Geez, I was part of a trial program years...

So time to talk brash...Hope that fellow Pats fans don't have a problem or that Wells has a problem (if he's paying attention...probably is). Are you kidding? What interview/statement takes more than a couple of hours or less? Geez, if you really had to go beyond you'd run surveillance just to...
