Fan Connection OT: What did you get? Post your Pats swag (or any other cool gift) here.

I got a few books, which I’m excited to dive into:



Did anyone else get anything good?

I'll let you know Sunday around 4pm.

I got a Patriots zipper hoodie, Patriots work gloves, a long sleeve Pat the Patriot T-shirt. I still have gifts from the kids to open so more later, I’m sure.

I hope this is ok here on the main page as it mentions the Bucs!

Even though I have been a proud Tom Brady supporter with the Bucs, below is a photo of my favorite Christmas present this year. I thought it would spark some good discussion, LOL.

Merry Christmas to everyone, whether Bucs or Pats fans. Even you, Green Cow. And @ashley1992 I thought you would really like this shirt.

First of all Merry Christmas to everyone, as well as a great 2022. And as far as the Patriots go the future is bright with Mac Jones looking to be a true franchise QB for the foreseeable future. Having a real replacement for the GOAT after only one year is remarkable, and something I really didn’t expect this soon.

As far as gifts go it was a very practical Xmas, mostly clothing as well as a good canvas bag to carry all my daily things in. The biggest gift however was the new golf clubs I bought this fall, a full set of Callaway Big Bertha 21’s, which I love. I got to hit them only a couple of times at the end of the season, and I can’t wait to start the new outdoor season in the spring. In the meantime it’s weekly outing in the simulators to keep working in the swings.

Hopefully the Patriots go in a nice playoff run, but short of an epic collapse this season is a win overall, as they have many the pieces to build into a perennial top 4 franchise for the next decade. They will need to keep building over the coming off seasons, but they are off to a good start. Hopefully the coaching staff and front office can stay intact, as they get pillaged on a yearly basis, and that can only hurt them.

Enjoy the holidays, have a great 2022!

I guess a good question would be....why do the Patriots care about the bucs enough to make this shirt? I have seen over the years on twitter and other boards that when someone has a ton of success they get hated by others. It seems that has happened here. I am not sure pats fans are in any position to be mad about someone having success to troll because we have had enough for 10 teams

Anyway, yes you can post this here. Bashing Brady is fine down here, you just cant say anything nice about him or its moved.

I am still a Brady supporter. All meant in good fun. I still love the shirt!

Merry Christmas!

I hate it, no offense OP.

I guess I kinda understand why some Patriots fans feel an affinity towards the Bucs, but stuff like this makes me cringe.

But to each their own, and Merry Christmas.

In fairness, I didn't buy it. It was a present.

I laughed loudly when I opened it though and knew it was perfect for Patsfans!

I think it’s a funny shirt. I hope Brady does well, he deserves it. I would love for him to get to the super bowl. Only to meet the Pats and get spanked 54-0 with 12 sacks and 7 INTs. That’s where the line is for me, I admire Brady and want the best for him, until he is playing my favorite team in which case he is the enemy and needs to be demolished.

You think the Patriots made that shirt?

Reminds me of this. I didn’t get this abomination thankfully. I thought the 2-team jersey was bad until I saw this.

Mini helmet with Ben Watson and Adam Vinatieri autographs. Good future son-in-law!

A combination of two miserable wretched replacement logos

They deserve each other

Worked in the Amos House kitchen for three hours early this afternoon. I will NOT accept gifts from family or friends, I give them out..freely. Anyway,one guy had a tattered jean jacket on and gloves with holes in the fingers....that was it. I asked as he came through the line where he was sleeping tonight. He told me under a nearby overpass off 95 right down the street....I had a new 3/4 length Nautica puff jacket I got a few weeks ago and a pair of snowmobile gloves...I looked at this guy who had such gratitude in his eyes that we were feeding him a Christmas dinner and I said to myself..."jeezus krist, I have 10 or 15 of these winter jackets...I can't let this guy go back out into the fading afternoon light and shiver under some concrete overpass..."...the funniest thing was he said "you givin' me these gloves too?"...it was like he just hit the lottery. I felt like shyt when I left because I should have done more this holiday season.

Thank you, Joker, you are a winner.

My best Christmas gift was to myself. In NJ, I cannot watch the Pats play Buffalo live tomorrow because I get the Jets and Giants games and can't get DirecTV installed for the NFL package. I am bedridden due to back pain, so I can't go to a sports bar. A couple of weeks ago, I found out about the NFL Game Day Pass. It's not live but better than Red Zone. So at 1 PM, I must avoid sports on TV and open the internet so that I don't know the game's score. Then immediately after the live Pats game is over, I can watch the full Buffalo game on Replay. I will get the excitement, be allowed to cheer and enjoy the win against the Bills as it unfolds in front of me. I have a couple of friends, Percocet and Morphine, join me.

I sincerely hope you all had a terrific Christmas, and I wish you all a Healthy and Happy New Year.

Go Pats
