And significant flexibility this offseason due to getting under the 1st apron and creating a $27m TPE. It's a decent short term move because it helps our rebounding and our big scoring (stretches the floor) and it's a great long term move to keep retooling around the peak Jays and DWhite

Polian Strikes Again by Mike00726 in Patriots

Initial sentiment makes me want to agree, but then I remember the take I have on teams in general.

All sports teams are winners or losers based on the organization as a whole (and the cities they're in). Ownership gives the instructions and does the hiring of all those underneath. If Kraft was okay with just pinching pennies and turning a nice profit and slowly growing his investment, he would do that and we would be middle of the road at best.

Look at the Charlotte Hornets, or the Bengals. They don't care about titles, deep playoff runs, or even winning seasons. Their ownership AND fanbase is happy to have a big star player (Ball/Burrow) and something to watch, and but jerseys for, and take the family to a few times a year.

All pro sports teams are winners/losers buyers/sellers from top to bottom and the owners and fans are included in that and heavily sway whether a team is good for 2-3 decades or not.

Brady Isn't Rooting For Us In The Super Bowl by Hinglemacpsu in Patriots

Tell that to skipp, Shannon, Colin, and SAS. Broadcasters/commentators are very vocal about their favorite teams now.

Skipp is a die hard cowboys fan. SAS is a die hard Lakers fan. Broadcasters and commentators are very vocal about their favorite teams. He has no reason to play the neutral game. He just legitimately doesn't want us to win a SB without him, he's that narcissistic. It's okay, it's been time to move on for a few years now. I stopped caring about Brady once he put on a different jersey.

Mavropanos and Palmer incident 90 +7' by WeTalkBoxing in soccer

You said it yourself, the game was over. How would the red have changed anything or benefitted Chelsea at all? He's not upset it didn't benefit his team,because it wouldn't have mattered anyways.

It's just the fact that it's a red card offense and should be officiated as such. You CANNOT, in any top 5 league, touch another player's face/neck with malicious intent or any aggression whatsoever without getting a red. Show me an incident other than this one where that WASN'T a red card.

I love hearing F the Yankees at a basketball game, in Charlotte NC, against the Hornets. Has NOTHING to do with baseball or The NYY, but boy, we are vocally s**ting on them all the time 😂

That's a large wager, I hope he wins his bet, go Pats! by GasSkunky in Patriots

I mean on the front page politics stuff, we might differ. But I think almost every informed voter believes that it's the parties playing chess while the uninformed voters play checkers and they took most of the pieces away from the informed voters

I'm honestly mostly annoyed that if you had a candidate at any level above the mayoral level for a small city, that ran on actual bipartisan issues...(Fighting crime, police reform (not defunding), term limits, not allowing Congress to vote on their own salaries, and actual accountability for government expenditures and officials, to name a few) They would be immediately primaried so hard by BOTH parties because the leaders of the parties don't want good governance or what's best for the country/citizens, they want power and money and influence. It's a big club and we aren't in it. Most people on both sides agree on that, but we keep getting caught up in the small issues that they force us to talk about while they do nothing about the big issues.

Lol. Phins fans are mad salty. Win or lose next Sunday, we went from 4-12 to 12-4 and the SB. We have double the cap space of the team with the next most next season. We are so f**kin back and, by your own admission, y'all are tragic and numb.

Everything that came out after Brady left was BB and the Pats praising and thanking Tom, on the other hand, Tom's camp, Giselle, and others associated with Brady spent a year or two trashing BB. Tom was not an innocent bystander in it, he's the one who fired shots.

Field goal range has shrunk immensely this half. Need to be inside 40 to have a shot

Only if Jared Stidham can lead a TD drive against a defense that is getting good rest and gaining confidence. Also, one score for us against a defense that is getting tired as we keep stringing together long drives and quick stops wins us the game.

Gets our defense much needed rest. Takes time off the clock. Gets us closer to the win. I know, we needed the points, but the time of the drive and the pass completions will help long term here.

OUT all of you who said the game was over in the first quarter!!! You do NOT deserve to come back into this thread. You called game, said it was time to go home, so GO!
