This will be McGinest's first game in NE since leaving

I hope so too. He was one of my favorite Patriots! I was sad that he left.

Seriously, thinking about Willie stepping out from the tunnel is getting me teary eyed. He bleads & sweats the Patriot colors no matter who he plays for. He contributed as much as anyone I can think of to the Patriots rise to excellence.

We miss you Willie McGinnest!:rocker:

I get the chills just thinking about the GL stand in Indy!

BTW: What the hell ever happenedto Chris Slade? Even after all the big moments that Willie went on to make for the Dynasty teams, I still cant help but think of Slade whenever I hear his name. They are linked together in my mind forever. Like Bledsoe/Coates or Law/Milloy. Great Patriot tag teams.

Count me in as one of those who hope the fans cheer like hell for him. Having met him and his parents a few years back I only have good feelings and memories of WillMac.

Yeah,Seeing Willie in that ugly Orange looking Helmet and Brown Pants is going to be almost too much to bear.

I hope him and Brady only meet BEFORE and AFTER the game

Glad to see his back is much better,I would have hated for him to retire like that.

Is he even playing ?? He has a back injury... and I dont think he has played this season yet...
