And that’s ok. No need to be sad if that happensNine is looking just a tad doubtful at the moment.

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..
Let me know what bob says back.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.
They’ve played in eight straight AFC championships....
Eight.
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.

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 . . .
You said it much better than I would have. I was just going to write, "Dear Bob: F@CK YOU.Well Bob, I hope you are happy. Did Jerry put you on the christmas list yet? Didn't think so.

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).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.
Bob certainly deserves some criticisim but you lost me at "leaving your wife's deathbed."Well Bob, I hope you are happy. Did Jerry put you on the christmas list yet? Didn't think so.

Wish YOU would suffer a blackout. Your constant negativity sucks.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
JestsHow 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."
