AB is the hand grenade and the Patriots are the enclosed space.  

 

I mean good for the Patriots.  They were complete fools to give this guy a contract.  There is no amount of process or locker room personality that's going to fix that guy.

Boston sports fans come out of the womb with this idea imprinted in their DNA. Not a surprise coming from a Pats fan but it's pretty disgusting.

When Kraft sold his soul to the devil it must have been a package deal.

It would likely never happen, but I think it would be pretty effing awesome if a group of Pats* starters got together and told BB and Kraft that, "if AB suits up, we will not be."  Of course, that kind of "standing up for what you believe," behavior has been successfully deterred.  But I think it would be great.

if ab plays they are a better team and win more. winning more means getting paid more. theyd be only hurting their own paychecks

I realize all of that.

 

That's a big part of why players standing up for what's right would be so significant.

I'd say they're playing chicken with the league. If they suspend/fine AB he's done there but If the league does it he not only won't count against the 53 but If he somehow weathers this shitstorm they can say "hey we were on your side the whole time keep playing here."

It worked with Hernandez. They should ignore all red flags as long he’s making plays.how could they ever know that these guys are psychopaths? Not like there are any signs that he could hurt more people in the future.

Didn’t they stand by Hernandez pretty much until he was arrested? They don’t have a very good track record of being the leagues “moral compass.”

They absolutely stood by him. So this is no surprise.

“I know there are questions about Antonio,” Belichick told reporters. “We take all the situations with our team very seriously, and there are some things that we’re looking into.

 

But I’m not going to have any comments on the off-the-field situations or questions on that. Anything on football, I’d be happy to answer.”

 

Asked if the off-the-field allegations complicate his ability to coach Brown, Belichick said, “When we work on football, we work on football.”

I disagree.  The absolute wisest thing to do, as HC/GM, is to be dismissive and evasive.

you mean like the Bills GM who told us

 

1.  he didn't know Rex was going to be fired

2.  he was not consulted on it, his opinion was never asked for

3.  he just found out Rex was fired at the press conference

4.  he has no opinion on the matter at all

The crappy Bills owner threw the GM to the wolves, there.  That was not a great Bills moment.

This just helps to magnify their contrived Us-Against-The World schtick. Except that these days, rather than simply pretending the world is against them, the world is, in fact, against the Patriots and their institutional unethical behavior.
