Stories about this guy are next level. Anyone who comes across more from his playing days or prior coaching stints, please post.

 
My favorite story about Vrabel came from Brian Westbrook in a DC radio interview a week before SB 39. Westbrook talked about their week 2 game in 2003. He was at the bottom of a pile with the ball after a fumble, and Vrabel grabbed him by the balls and twisted until he coughed up the ball
 
I get the feeling Vrabel is going to hurt some feelings along the way this season but I think that's what this team needs to get back to being a smash mouth football team.
 
The Krafts are leaving now stones unturned...they are not going Cheap this year either. There's no substitute for a good staff and we always had that under BB.
 
The comments about the dynamic with Vrabel, Brady and Light document the establishment of the Patriot Way. High expectations enforced by the players in a way that brought everyone together as a team. The perfect yin to BB's yang.

Just in the wrong positions?

 
The stories of Vrabel and Brady jawing at each other during practice, I’ve heard Tom and other players say the two of them use to go at it quite a bit.
