A Note to Bob Kraft

Never have understood the vitriol for Mr. Kraft.. a state of the art facility, great practice facilities, spends consistently to the limits of the cap...

Kraft allows BB to pretty much do what he wants, never meddles in much of the day to day stuff..

Of course there will be those who throw in the AB BS, but there are 31 other teams passing on his toxicity..

Meanwhile we are watching the end of the GOAT QB.. he had diminished skills last year and more so this year.. does anyone ever remember #12 ascending to the podium after a game with an ice pack on??? IMO that is telling on many levels.. he is close to the end.

For those of you who will give up their season tickets after Brady leaves.. good for you, there is something like a 10 year waiting list..

Tom Brady and BB will forever be linked with this organization on one level or another.. Kraft knows who made this franchise great.. and I suspect whoever is the coach or QB they may not be of the same quality, but they will probably be pretty good..

It is idiotic to abandon your fandom based on useless crap or blaming Kraft.. you all should have been here during the really bad years and really, really bad ownership times..

The other 31 are passing on AB because he will likely be put on the exempt list. Another NFL loophole to evade litigation over their indefensible stances toward "player conduct."

My fandom has been limited to BB/TB since cowardly Bob's capitulation on deflategate. He willingly chose to put draconian commissioner power over doing the right thing, despite "his team" getting worked over.

Jerry is laughing his ass off on the party bus with Kraft's niece. Bob will never receive the welcome he has sold himself out to ascertain. He's just another useful idiot with a pile of cash.
 
We will go into the lion’s den with this offense. Nobody’s walking through that door. 3 games left with a pedestrian offense. Hope to squeak by these games. Any loss and basically playing on wildcard weekend because i expect the chiefs to win out. Just wanna see some type of improvement even if it’s not good competition.
 
Well Bob, I hope you are happy. Did Jerry put you on the christmas list yet? Didn't think so.

For a guy that talk about his "Patriots family," and "our great fans," you certainly do not show any signs of actually giving a damn.

Remember that time you told Tom you had his back, then backed the Bus right over him? We do.

You were praised like a hero for leaving your wife's deathbed to weasel the worst CBA in sport into existence. I hope the couple points of TV cash was worth it.

So i guess the joke is on us for being duped into thinking you had a spine. You are more worried about appearances than conviction. Every time, you have chosen capitulation before moral conviction.

You see Mr Kraft, every time one of those moments have presented themselves, you have literally chosen to capitulate and willingly accept obvious lies to stand as the truth of the story. I guess the one excpetion would be AB.

Is he a ****? Absolutely. Is he a criminal? Probably, its pretty clear he loves to stiff working folks. But I figured that would be something you two could bond over. The point still stands there arent any criminal sexual charges being pressed against AB, if there were going to be, they would have happened already. Your hypocrisy on the matter is noted.

Your disdain for honesty and accountability stretches so far as to weasel out of a fine over a handy, like some other old white dude in a blue quarter million dollar ride was on that tape.

You put up wellsreportincontext like you gave half a damn, while literally being the league mouthpiece to publicly announce the standing of a villanous suspension of an All Time Great. This year you cut the best WR in football, because he was accused of hot button crimes. Not convicted, not even accused in criminal court. After you yourself had to suppress video proof of the crime you were accused of, to skate by on a technicality. Talk about an elitist prick.

How many more SB does Brady have if you dont become Goodie's punching bag? For years we wrote off Gronk getting mauled because, well Gronk. Ben Watson made the Best Play That Never Was. I bet if you stood up to the peytie schtick a bit, theres a few of those that go differently. Tom would have wrecked the Bears. Tonight it was clear. Goodie knows you won't make him a fool. So he keeps giving it to you.

That Eagle's SB where Brady was lights out, and the Eagles kept getting bailed out by non-calls, and by Troy Vincent's own omission, a new replay standard? I know your team played well enough to win, it just wasn't a legitimate contest. A called TD on a play where there is obviously juggling on the way out of bounds...

Despite 3 or 4 irrefutably blown calls, you won't say a word. You owe your players better than that. Its happened before, it happened again tonight.

I guess what I'm saying, Mr. Kraft, is you and Roger are a lot alike. You have both sought out a reputation which you will never obtain. Roger may recon himself a real business man, doing business things. He's really just a mouthpiece. A paid schill to deliver indefensible decisions at the behest of those he seeks validation with.

Similarly, you both claim influence on your respective organizational success. Despite it being obviously apparent that the results are being held back by it's leadership's failure to get things right on the field or in the boardroom.
Let me know what bob says back.
 
Mr. Kraft has been less than perfect ...
Overall he deserves praise and this thread rather sucks.
 
Thanks Bob, for building the greatest dynasty in any salary-capped sport.

We have been blessed with your 25-year run, especially the past 19 years.

Many in our fan base have become very badly spoiled to the point of being very embarrassing. How many of them ever sat on the metal bleachers at Sullivan stadium? Very few, I'd guess.

Last I checked BB picked the players and his staff and coached the team.
 
I don't care if Kraft calls out the officials. It won't change the outcome of the game. If he overruled BB on AB, that's another story . . .

He did.
 
When did the liquored up, horny little guy gain the formal title “Mr.” Kraft?
Did the genuflection begin when he first sat on his booster throne?

I noticed this board gave up on the “Mr.” after he got pinched for Asian handjobbery.....
But today.....despite his AB interference leading to a pathetically anemic offense..... Mr Mr Mr

What will he be called when Brady walks?
 
Wait, Bob Kraft reads notes on here? ****, if that's the case, can you invest in my project, Bob? It's a slam dunk.
 
Bob is a great man and always treated our thrifty relationship with dignity and respect.

Sincerely,
LuLu and Mingbi

You said it much better than I would have. I was just going to write, "Dear Bob: F@CK YOU.
 
I love how people frame all of this as being unfair to Brady when in reality what going on is that parts of the "fanbase" seem to feel entitled to their AFCCG and SBs.

It is not a success anymore but considered a failure if thats all it is.
I don't think it's a matter of being entitled. I don't recall seeing anyone on here lambasting RK for not having any receivers on the team when Brady had to go through the playoffs with Reche Caldwell as his top target; it was just accepted that that was not a year that things broke well for us. That year was also different because we didn't at one point have a HOF receiver on the roster who then subsequently got cut for the sake of the owner's expediency, with total disregard for the players and coaches (not to mention the fans that foot the bill for all of it).

This situation is different because we did have a HOF receiver on the roster, and he was making a dramatic, inarguable, immediate impact that would have transformed this offense....And, most importantly, the most cogent detail by far, said receiver was on the roster in a year that easily could be the last best shot for the GOAT to win his last SB, and said receiver was making a profound difference in the ability of the GOAT to play at the GOAT level, and the owner still cut said receiver.

There have been very few, if any, single actions taken by owners of any professional sports franchise that more completely and thoroughly disregarded the entire team and coaching staff, along with all of the teams' fans, than did this one action by RK. He might as well have shot double birds at all of us from his pressbox.

Bob certainly deserves some criticisim but you lost me at "leaving your wife's deathbed."
 
Very curious to see how Krafty Bob or the Kraft family are as owners once Brady leaves and Belichick is no longer the coach. When they're gone I'd guess at least 20% of the ST base will give up their tickets and folks won't be chomping at the bit to snap up 10 games of Stidham throwing to NKeal Harry and Jakobi Myers....

I bet we see a return to local blackouts
Wish YOU would suffer a blackout. Your constant negativity sucks.
 
"We've won plenty the past 20 years...I'm fine if we don't win a Super Bowl this year" not said by Bill Belichick
 
How many times does this guy get to leverage not moving to St Louis (cause St Louis has worked great for the NFL) as why we should be ok with him acting against the best interests of his team.

Seems like a worthy discussion, @IllegalContact, since you didn't like "whining."
Jests
Dallas
Oakland
Chicago
Washington
Miami
Houston
cleveland
Detroit

All of these teams have lousy ownership and have blown picks and money and have gotten nowhere. The fish rots from the head, i may disagree with how kraft does things from time to time, but i never lose sight of the fact that overall hes been a great owner.
