Sidney Rice to Seattle on a five year, $41 million deal.

Ugh! I was hoping that he would end up in BMore.

hm didn't see that one coming. it's a good acquisition for them, provided they have a competent QB.

spidernat · « **Reply #253:** July 28, 2011, 08:43:33 AM »

They acquired Tavaris Jackson.

Yes. I think ronnynat or DMP usually start it but I'll get it going. WE've been slacking this season.

No crap !! I was telling someone here (work) it's a good thing Ben's married (or not). Can you imagine those two knuckleheads out on the town together? Hines can drive 'em around.

I actually expect Big Ben to get divorced in the next 5 years... he's gonna cheat on his wife, mark my words.

That could be said about any professional athlete though.

Yes, somewhere. You could start one for this upcoming season.

Except Tom Brady, because cheating on his wife would be a downgrade.

There's a motorcycle helmet sticker that states, "No matter how pretty she is, there's someone somewhere who's tired of her crap."

From Halfsmokes: "so much for that whole classy organization thing"

Throw in Haynesworth and you have "Yahtzee".

It will be up to TB to keep this crap straight once the final cuts are made. He has the gravitas.

Brady's got Ocho, but then again, I don't consider Ocho to be a cancer. Vince has got Albert covered.

i remember when the pats were a no-name, scrappy, team-first team in the early 2000s

and they won 3 titles and they were respected because they just did their crap and were better than you

with their new freak-you philosophy, how many titles have they won since 04? gotta be a lot

freak you philosophy? The only thing vaguely constituting an F U team was 07? If we didn't choke in 06 against the Colts, we woulda beaten the Bears easily, and the Pats beat the Giants 9 times out of 10. Now my point is not to make excuses for the Pats, because they lost those, and the Colts and Giants deserve their rings. Rather, my point is that the Pats did not lose those games because of a freak you philosophy. They lost because they didn't play as well as the other team. But they could have easily won both.
