Random thoughts (not all about the Patriots):
- I'm hoping Brown can make the transition to LT. If he can, that might put the rookie in at LG, and that might mean that we could see less of Thuney. That would be a good thing.
- The major problem with the lack of linebacker speed still has not been addressed.
- Walking may be good for you, but it sucks getting caught out in the rain.
- It's disheartening to think that Cyrus Jones and Jordan Richards are still in position to make the team. That's a failure of the offseason, to date.
- I just got a Blackstone grill. I'll be using it in tandem with my regular grill this summer. It should really make things much easier when it comes to cooking for company. Next up: Big Green Egg
- Vinatieri to Gostkowski. Bledsoe to Brady. Parcells to Belichick (yeah, with Carroll in between, but still). Raise your hand if, back in the late 90s, you thought that trio would all yield to arguable upgrades that would keep things going for more going on two decades.
- Eric Rowe is not the answer.
- Sturgeon roe is delicious.
- If the big fatty from Cleveland can handle 2-gapping in New England, and the big fatty from the IR can develop into even a serviceable rotation DT, this team could put Hightower at MLB and become very tough to run on up the middle. If they can't, it could be another long season on the defensive side of the ball.
- Speaking of Ball, Lonzo must be wondering where the hell he's going to be playing next year.
- Between the Brady drama, the Gronk drama, the potential Edelman suspension, the loss of Lewis, the injuries to pretty much the entire offensive line, and the lack of a QB of any high ranking being brought in this off season, thank goodness McDaniels came back. If he didn't, the line to the Tobin jump off point might be miles long.
- Everyone should keep a small LED flashlight in their car. You can get one that is only about 4 inches long and runs on 1 "AA" battery, and you can get them for a great price. And, if you get them in multi-packs, you can give them as little stocking stuffer type gifts for Christmas.
- The NFL seems intent on ruining kickoffs for everyone, but this year should be interesting from a play creativity standpoint, at least early in the season.
- And one last thought from the annals of Amnesia Lane: Remember the Viking Kitties! Viking Kittens
