    The Krafts

    My brother's in-laws have made donations to MGH that dwarf the Krafts, even have an entire wing of the hospital named after one of them, none of them have even sniffed a seat on the board, never mind the Chairman's role. I can agree that most of these board positions are likely who he is, but...

    The Krafts

    I don't think you're looking at it from an impartial point of view. Kraft publicly blamed Belichick for losing the Eagles SB. He treats Tommy like a son, and refers to his coach as a pain in the ass. He's making Belichick sound insecure as hell when he says "Tommy represented a threat to...

    The Krafts

    I disagree with the first sentence entirely. If Bob Kraft had simply left the entire situation thanking Bill Belichick as the greatest coach of all time, and standing by the "mutual parting of ways," there isn't even a discussion. Instead, we got this: "The tension between Bill and Tom was...

    The Krafts

    And as someone else mentioned, so does Bill Belichick owe all of his opportunities to his father? Kyle Shanahan? Is Sean McDonough only successful because his father was Will? There are a metric fuckton of millionaire and billionaire donors around here. There's only one Chairman of the Board...

    Misc. Pats Offseason News

    Oh good, another reminder how bad we fucked up that pick, and how much AJ Brown wanted to be a Patriot: https://www.si.com/nfl/eagles/news/philadelphia-eagles-aj-brown-rumors-new-england-patriots-tennessee-titans As the Bill Belichick Era in New England seemingly comes to an unceremonious end...

    The Krafts

    You know, this part of your post struck me, because I think the one player everyone references when talking about this is the N'Keal Harry pick. That's when the narrative started that Bill didn't listen to his scouts and just went with the guys he liked began. So last night, I was tossing...

    The Krafts

    That's not exactly what I said. Yes, Jonathan Kraft wouldn't be the President of the New England Patriots or the New England Revolution, but the idea that Jonathan Kraft wouldn't be successful "at all in life" without his father/mother could be said for every single kid who grew up in an...

    The Krafts

    I actually don't disagree with this. I just disagree that "asshole" is synonymous with "incompetent" or that he's only successful at all in life because of his father. He certainly had a leg up on the competition from day one in life, but so do most folks who get to the wealth that these guys...

    Looking ahead, I think Miami was 3-1 against the Hawks this year and 1-2 against Chicago. So go Bulls, I guess.

    All I know is the fucking refs better not call a single tech on a Celtic fir complaining about a call, clapping their hands or waiting their arms after the shit Draymond and Lowry are able to get away with.

    I want nothing to do with the Heat until we need to meet them. Alternatively, I'm not sure this Philly team is a lock to beat Chicago or Atlanta (whereas I think Miami rolls either of them). Let the Knicks and Heat beat the crap out of each other for 7 games.

    I think I'm rooting for Miami. And the aforementioned roof cave in. How about you guys?

    Not for me. I'm over here rooting for the roof to fall onto the court.

    I don't think that door is anywhere near closed for 2025.
