Your jib. I like the cut of it.

GREAT THANKS NOW I CAN SPEND MY DAY TOMORROW AIRING GRIEVANCES

From my time spent in New England, trust me, there are some decent Pats fans out there that are not bandwagoners and were just as sick of us in the 80s-90s as we are of them now.

I remember the Super Bowl runs well, I was a young teenager for wide right. Those are your most formative years as a sports fan, so I was hooked. My issue with the Patriots are simple. They cheat, and their fans have no sense of the history of the game. I lived in Boston for several years and was there for the first, improbable super bowl run on the back (foot) of Vinateri and some backup QB from Michigan. That city was always a baseball town, first and foremost. People barely knew or cared there was an NFL team down there next to Rhode Island. After the Pats win that night, I distinctly remember a “Yankees Suck!” chant breaking out in the Beacon Hill Pub. True Pats fans that can name any player prior to 2000 are few and far between. Contrast that with Packers and Steelers and Bills fans. As far as the cheating, they’ve admitted to it and accepted sanctions on two separate occasions. They are more tainted than Barry Bonds and Jose Canseco competing in the Balco All-Drug Olympics. So while I get that Patriots dominance is all some younger fans know, trust us older folks when we tell you it will come to an end.

I had a meniscus tear two years ago. After a little PT and losing about 30 lbs, I was back to all star beer-league softball form. If I can do it, KB13 can do it.

That's where I'm at. Mortgaging the future for a 30-year old QB? Known quantity or not, he doesn't seem like a world-beater, and you get 8-10 years at the absolute best.

The tailgating there is awesome.

Yeah, but 40 of those 80 pages are just straight copy-pastes from the NFL handbook on tampering.

I’m a bit mystified by it all. I’ve been coming to games for 20 years and have tailgated in many private lots. Literally once have I seen anyone even attempt something like this, in the mud lot. The guys who drive around that lot on Gators shut it down IMMEDIATELY, before the dude could launch himself from the roof of a car. I truly believe it’s less than 100 idiot 20-somethings scattered her and there, going for the viral video for what they perceive to be 15 minutes of fame. I won’t pretend I was coming to the tailgate for bible study 15-20 years ago, but I wasn’t obsessed with getting anything on video either.

One is definitely not exclusive of the other.

According to some in this thread, Rochester doesn’t count, isn’t part of WNY, and shouldn’t be part of the equation, and so Canada is where it’s at, which was demonstrated to us during the wildly successful Toronto series. To capitalize on the land of milk and honey and back bacon, the new stadium will be built on Goat Island.

SUPA BOWL!!1!

God, that game was so much fun. Bacarri Freaking Rambo. That had been the most fun gave I ever attended, right up until this past Sunday. Nope, that was the Denver game. I went to that one as well. I’ll never forget sitting in the nosebleeds, seeing that wuss move from so far away, my buddy and I losing our minds, and then my phone blowing up with texts from friends watching the game back at home.

As do I. I don’t know any of you people. Far as I really know, this entire board could be me and SDS’s 10,000 alt accounts. But there has been enough truth to enough instances of “inside information” here that I neither believe it nor dismiss it right away. Just file it away with a “huh, interesting. well, we’ll see soon enough.”

I’m more wary of the guy with 7,500 posts in nine months. Whatever he’s selling, I assume he buys pixels by the barrel.

What is the long-term vision for training camp at Fisher?

You must know that posting blind quotes and anonymous sources will be met with skepticism. But past history has told me enough about inside sources on this board that they should not be discounted out of hand, nor automatically believed. So whether true or not, please know that myself and many others will not attack you. I simply file your info away with a “huh, that’s interesting. We’ll see soon enough.”

We had a blast. Regrettably, we missed the theatrics at the end, we left with just a few minutes left in the fourth. I was nervous about making the drive back to ROC. Caught it all on the radio and participated in a major honk-fest on the thruway.

Yes. But it was fun before that too.

I understand why a dome may be in our future, but that game was so much GD fun.

God, calm down. I was just MAKING fun of the RANDOM capitalization AS IF it helps MAKE a better POINT.

Great POST except, DENNISON is not the one THROWING THE GD FOOTBALL straight INTO the HANDS of awaiting DEFENSIVE BACKS.

Weak!

I’m completely ok moving on from Tyrod. Minimizing how historically bad Peterman’s performance was with “well, plenty of the greats threw 4-7 INTs” is specious at best.
