2001 Patriots Season:

New England will be heading back to their first AFC Championship game since 1997 after kicker Adam Vinatieri hit a 23-yard field goal in overtime to lift the Patriots to a 16-13 victory over the Oakland Raiders Saturday night.

It’s time for New England head coach Bill Belichick to live up to his reputation.

I am not so famous that I need a bodyguard. Mo Vaughn needed one when he’d visit the Foxy Lady. Maybe Mark Cuban had one when he worked at that Dairy Queen today. If you see Drew Bledsoe in a mosh pit bar, you’re the one that will need a bodyguard, not Drew.

Who in New England really likes “Primetime”? Depends upon what you’re referring to.

It’s time for Tom Brady to show the world he’s the real deal, or head coach Bill Belichick is going to face a tough dilemma during the offseason.

Thanks, Jets. Now we hate you again.

How in the world can you feel concerned after a 32-point win that clinches a division title and an eventual two seed for your team?

The Patriots rolled to their sixth straight victory on Sunday, beating the Carolina Panthers 38-6 and clinching their first AFC East divisional title since 1997.

Patriot fans have a major problem coming up this Sunday.

Patriots head coach Bill Belichick will have his first Sunday off this weekend as his team will sit through a bye as they prepare for their January 6th meeting against the Carolina Panthers.

Don’t be surprised if Tom Brady doesn’t make the Pro Bowl when the season is over.

The Patriots will head to Buffalo on Sunday and will be looking to do something they haven’t done in a while, and that’s to not allow the Bills to keep the game close.

Red Sox fans once liked Carl Everett. For a brief time in the 2000 campaign, Red Sox Nation got a good heapin’ helping of this new slugger from Houston. Everett put up great numbers in the first half of the 2000 season. He had an OPS (that’s on-base percentage plus slugging percentage, for those of you who think Bill James is the devil) of 1.050, second on the club to Nomar Garciaparra. He was the runaway team leader in home runs and RBIs. He was hitting .329 at the All-Star Break.

Honk if you discussed the words “Patriots” and “playoffs” in the same sentence, and the person(s) you were talking to you snuck out to begin lunacy hearings on your behalf.

New England went into the locker room down 13-0 at halftime against the New York Jets on Sunday knowing full well that they needed to come out playing better in the second half if they wanted to have any hope of staying in the playoff hunt.
