Putting the Band Back Together

Cooler heads don’t always prevail. Thankfully, this time they did. Big Vince will be back in 2014.

Waiting By The Telephone

So, I guess I understand how women feel waiting for that call after the first date. The first week of free agency was amazing and it seemed to promise so much more. And then? Nothing. Why doesn’t he call?

Big and Tall

Wait, what? Kenny Britt is still coming to Foxborough?

There's No Place Like Home

Who are you and what have you done with the real Bill Belichick?

A Change is Gonna Come

It’s been a crazy 48 hours, compounded by the fact that I’ve suffered through a brutal head cold. Sinus pressure and pain that brought me quite literally to tears. In between a dry unproductive hacking cough I thought would turn my face inside out. Yuck! The loss of Talib, the signing of Revis followed hard by Wilfork’s request to be released. There would be no restructuring of Big Vince’s contract, no cap relief. I’m reminded once again that everything ends badly or else it wouldn’t end.

Business is Business

Sometimes you can prepare yourself for the inevitable but when it happens, it’s still something of a shock.

Rumor Mongering

Patriots Nation’s second favorite rumor – Larry Fitzgerald is still #1 – surfaced again on Saturday; several pigskin pundits and bobbleheads reported or confirmed retweeted Houston’s interest in a trade for Ryan Mallett. By the end of the day this rumor had been summarily dismissed by pigskin cognoscenti. Unfortunately, rumors Aqib Talib will play for Washington in 2014 only seemed to be gaining something like momentum. By Monday, it seemed a fait accompli.
