Should have seen him win his ring two weeks later in Pasadena with the rest of the guysMy first Patriot's jersey was a Vataha jersey I got on Christmas 1976.
Hog's a nice man but you did not want to strike up a conversation with him the day of a game.I've been around since the very beginning, and I like most of the guys who played here for any length of time. Personal favorites include Babe Parilli, Gino Cappelletti, Houston Antwine. Grogan and John Hannah top my list, though. Hard nosed, very tough players.
Andre Tippet
Tip played for Bill in his final year, 1993, so he's not completely 'pre-Parcells'.Andre Tippett
'post-Parcells' too, technically.Doug Flutie.
Raymond had a permanent hard on for Tony Eason.I quit following the team for a summer because I felt like he had been run out of town by a coach in Berry who cared more about how the game was played than about winning.
In no particular order:
Grogan
Russ Francis (All World as Howard Cosell would say)
Darryl Stingley
Stanley Morgan
Andre Tippett
Moisi
Julius Adams
CBD = Curse Ben DreithI was thinking of all these names and of course...Don Calhoun.
My favorite has always been Mr. Stingley, crushed the hell out of me. Jack Tatum sucks...as a matter of a fact, there should be a emoji that says Jack Tatum Sucks (JTS)
So many of the ones already named but Don Blackmon who was McHale to Bird in Patriots terms with Tippett. Bird and Tippett deserve all the accolades they got but I always thought people under appreciated McHale and Blackmon. I was devastated when he hurt his neck and had to retire. Of course it came against the flipping Raiders to make it that much more bitter given the history.
