O.K. re Coolade. Seems I've stirred up quite a hornets nest. It's really quite simple, and I'm a bit embarrassed to admit my shortcomings when it comes to this newfangled means of communication. Supafly had a wonderful suggestion, "If you tag the person, they will receive a notification in...

Respecting your seniority status, Jlaff, In the Starting Lineup, I'll abandon my common practice of using a red font. I've always used it to commemorate the red jerseys of the original Boston Patriots. But, since the team colors now incorporate blue, would this be more acceptable.

Coolade2, message me before you leave for overseas.

4 year $38.4 M guaranteed. If ever a player had a good reason to go for the 'gold' in free agency, it was Nate. He gave the PATS his all during his tenure, and was an exemplary teammate, community participant, and family man. Given his family situation and his son's medical needs now and in...

Please don't put Judy in with other mediocrity Collins's! I've been totally enamored with Judy from the first time I heard her 1961 debut album A Maid of Constant Sorrow. And to this day my feelings have not diminished one iota. Many evenings I sit on my back deck and listen to a disc on...

Look again, and look more closely!

As a birthday gift that year, my daughter gave me a ticket to that game, 50 yard line, row 8, right behind Patriots bench. I remember it was a scorching hot day, the Dolphins QB was named Lemon and he played like one, but most of all I remember that catch. I just sat there not believing what I...

It should be pointed out that McCourty plays better when everything is in front of him. That's why he was converted to a free safety from his original CB position. But now they often have Harmon back at free safety and are asking McCourty to play up as a strong safety to cover tight ends and...

"Excellent throws all night" WRONG! 1st down: Brady overthrows White racing down right sideline 2 steps ahead of defender. 2nd down: Brady throws pass over the middle but behind streaking Gordon. Incomplete. 3rd down: Brady throws screen pass at the feet of Gronk wide open in the flat to...

I'm on the other side of the coin. I find Buck & Aikman horrific. Can't stand Buck's voice or indescribable tone and his nonsensical ad libs. As for Aikman, when he can get a word in, he's dull and boring and his football observations are not that insightful. And both are incessantly...

Thanks oldrover as you've perhaps defined why I'm feeling all warm and fuzzy this morning. I was all of 5 years-old when Song of the South was first introduced in 1946 and I was completely enthralled. In latter years, my parents would take great pleasure in reprising the story, to anyone who...

Ghost was kicking the ball into or through the end-zone for most of the day, but on one kickoff after a scoring drive, he pooch kicked it with the Phins getting field position around the 40 yard line. I immediately thought 'what-the-f&*#!' What's the consensus, was it intentional in an...

His decision does not surprise me. One must remember for a time, Reich had the distinction of having led his team to the biggest comeback victory ever in both the college and NFL ranks, including a 32-point comeback for the Bills in 1993. On November 10, 1984 at the Orange Bowl Stadium, Reich...

Good fumble recovery, you're absolutely correct. I misspoke, I meant 'illegal procedure'! But I think you get the gist of my thoughts.

Thank you p8yrts , BINGO! "Fowler is just to fast for Waddle to block and his two plays were key."

You can only run the hurry-up offense when each and every player knows the plays like the back-of-their-hand. Expecting players, particularly new-to-the-system players, to effectively perform in a hurry-up-offense in the 2nd game of the season, in a on-the-road game in front of a hostile crowd...

Apparently Arthur Slugworth has yet to figure it out! "There is no life I know To compare with pure imagination Living there, you'll be free, if you truly wish to be." As for me, "All I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by" Thank you BB & TB12.

Perhaps the Fish will give him a locker next to Danny A. to make him feel more at home!

My least favorite player by a wide margin, Adalius Thomas. In March of 2007, Thomas, an ex-Raven free agent, signed a 5-year contract with the Patriots worth $35 million, including $20 million in guaranteed money. He played fairly well in 2007 and 2008 but by 2009 it became obvious that he was...

Webb played in 49 college games at Vanderbilt and rushed for a total of 4178 yards and 32 touchdowns. He also hauled in 68 catches for 572 yards and 3 touchdowns. He had 16 games of at least 100 rushing yards. Webb's career rushing total ranks No. 6 all-time among SEC running backs. Among...
