Save your money on Holly's Belichick & Brady book.

I just watch Youtubes. Ian's stuff is all I read. Books are too long.
 
Different strokes...I couldn't put it down. Loved it.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but what did you learn from
Reading it that you did not already know?

I remember the years we won the Super Bowl & who we lost to on the years we didn't win.

About the only thing I learned by reading it was Bryan Cox talked about internet sites that most people would never think of visiting.

There were also so many things he should have included and didn't.
When we beat San Diego in the 2006 playoffs, he mentions dancing on the field & how LT said the Patriots & their coach did not have class, but he never mentioned Troy Browns force fumble after an interception late in the game, that was the key play of the game.

This was Holly's worst book by far.

I just enjoyed reading about and reliving all those great moments most of us here will never forget. I didn't begin it with any expectations that it would approximate Patriot Reign, because I knew it never could. I wasn't looking for the types of insider information that characterized Holly's earlier efforts because I had read a review ahead of time which mentioned the relative absence of that type of info in this one. Anyway, I certainly didn't expect nor did I receive anything stunning. I just found it a nice, interesting read that I stayed with easily for pretty long stretches. Once again, just my take.

I like Holly but this book was to soon and very uninspiring. He should have waited until TB/BB either retired or at the very least moved on to another team.

I am not even sure how I finished it. Especially considering one of the best Super Bowl victories for the Patriots just went down in 2016. Not in the book.

Well, honey, hopefully it helped you sleep. Also, hoping you're OK and recovered.
