NFL.com is running an article saying there isn't a good place to hang another Super Bowl Banner at Gillette. Does this mean the Patriots have to stop winning? I mean, couldn't we put a flag pole on top of the lighthouse? And what would we do if we decided to fly AFC East runners up banners?

CNN and the Bleacher Report are reporting on a Dartmouth practice approach that prohibits tackling during practice. Dartmouth players don't tackle other Dartmouth players. This doesn't mean they don't practice tackling. They are way into tackling dummies. They might be doing tackle drills...

I haven't much cared for pick plays. One isn't supposed to block defenders trying to cover other guys. However, the way the rules are written and enforced in the NFL, you can get away with it if it doesn't look too blatant. It becomes a shades of grey thing, telling the difference between a...

Josh Sitton has an opinion... So which is worse... The Broncos went one and done... again... after high hopes... again... The Packers had it nigh on locked up. There were so many ways that making a single play would have given them a win over the Seahawks. The Colts got blown out of...

No, not Tom. Giselle. CNN asks if Gisele Bundchen to become first supermodel billionaire? I've always wondered if Tom would take a pay cut if Kraft would hire Gisele to model Patriots gear. It might help the salary cap situation, assuming Kraft could afford her...

While we might enjoy dumping on the Jests, the Jets fans themselves are sometimes better at it than we are. Over on Gang Green they have a thread... This is what I think of Schottenheimer

I was passing a sports bar in Kingston. They had a sign up outside. "Brady chose it's us or Gisele." I would think there are lots of sports bars...

New research suggests porn is overly demonized Is anyone surprised? :bhump::hug::hump:

Watching the games this Thanksgiving, I thought I noted an organized premeditated post touchdown celebration that didn't draw a flag. Several players dropped to one knee and bowed their heads in an attitude of prayer. Does this not show a weakness in the NFL's place in our culture? If secular...

Armando Salgueroa of the Miami Hearald missed a few things in his article, Miami Dolphins' defense blows game plan, and Brady strikes again What made him think this was a favorable matchup? I am really starting to like Sebastian. :rockon: And, in my opinion, in the tradition of The Patriots...

Reports: Browns GM Kokinis escorted from building I am not shocked. Something like this was overdue. Poor Romeo.

There is a thread over on Blue and Silver dot com which opens with an article on the supremacy of the passing attack. I've been responding with my usual defense of smashmouth football. I found myself proposing a possible hidden agenda behind the Patriots no mercy schtick this year. What do...

OK. The Eagles did the Patriots a big favor by defeating the Dolphins, and thus helping us extend our lead over a division foe. Next week, they are coming to Foxboro, and the Patriots have an opportunity to be classy, to show proper appreciation. How should this appreciation be best expressed?

I used to not care for him as one of those distasteful Jet players, but now I hope he gets one more touchdown pass to extend his most-years record. And the Panthers are hurt enough at QB than he'll likely see some playing time. Better chance there than as the Patriots' 5th string...

Sports Illustrated is running a series on the best athletes to wear given numbers. Boston has laid claim, in their opinion, to 4, 6, 9, and 12. Didn't got through the rest, just checked out my 'Boston's Sports Mr. Rushmore' nominations, but those will do...

Serious.... Tornado warning is up for central and western Massachusetts, much of Connetitcut and northern Rhode Island. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/watch/ww0277.html

Have we given up on the backup forum? Has it moved? I visited .http://www.patriotsplanet.net/forums/index.php and got... well... Not important unless the primary goes down, but...

Times article on Ted Johnson and Concussions Ted Johnson speaks out on concussions and the reasons for his retirement.

I didn't think one could sink that low, but Grossmen went 6 for 19, 34 yards, 0 TD, 3 Interceptions against the Vikings for a rating of 1.3. I thought the string of playoff bound teams switching or considering switching QBs in the late season silly, but I can see why the natives are restless in...

It isn't just Tom Brady anymore. A NY Times article on the Giant's body language. Does this mean we'll soon have an extra body in the announcer's booth. In addition to the play by play announcer, color guy, the statistician, and the number to name kibitzer, they'll need a psychiatrist to...
