    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    Yeah. The Brady/T Swift montage of “Look what you made me do” post Deflategate can be injected straight into my veins.

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    Put me in the camp of I enjoyed it and think RKK came off pretty bad. The fact that he still doesn't know why Butler was benched was appalling. You're owner of the team. The coach reports to you and you can't get an answer out of him as to why someone who played 98% of the snaps during the...

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    I guess I'll lend a voice to what I feel like is the minority position. Between 3 games to Glory, America's Game, the 10 part Brady documentary, Tom vs. Time, Do Your Job Part 1 and 2, etc, we've had a lot of deep dives on individual seasons and games. As someone who has watched everything...

    Interesting. All I can hear is "I'm the eldest boy!" every time he speaks.

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    I get what you're saying here... but I think this shortchanges Brady quite a bit. He clearly had shown enough to be backup to Bledsoe when he had to go in due to injury. And he had shown enough in his stint before Bledsoe was healthy to earn plenty of other starting jobs if the Pats decided to...

    That was then: Celebrating what was

    I had always held out hope that the dynasty could come in for a soft landing and Brady would be here until retirement. That hope faded after the last AFC Championship win when Brady was playing with new stitches in his throwing hand and Belichick said, "we're not talking bout open heart surgery...

    NBA In-Season Tournament 2023 Discussion and Gamethread

    My only quibble with the IST is I wish they’d do away with east vs west once they get to the knockout round. We already get this structure for the playoffs and all the teams playing in the next round will now play 5 times this year. They should just reseed 1-8 and play from there.

    Just how good was Nomar Garciaparra?

    Hahaha - this post brought back memories for me. My grandma was the reason I started loving the Red Sox in the first place, helping me read the sports section of the Globe when I was 4 years old. She loved Nomar but used to always yell, "quit swinging at the first pitch!"... she never bought my...

    Tom Brady is retired

    Yeah, I also found it a bit odd. Of course there are safety benefits to playing now. There's also a salary cap, players are faster/stronger/more athletic, and Joe also played the majority of his career with the best wide receiver ever. I completely get his bitterness towards how his time in SF...

    Would you want Brady back?

    Brady won his first Super Bowl when I was a freshman in college. The longer he plays, the more I can pretend I'm still young. Even better if it's with the pats.

    Wild Card Weekend game thread

    Bucs just activated Jensen for today's game... will be curious to see how he plays and how much. Interesting time to make your season debut!

    Brady is back….back again

    I don't care how bad it is... anything that puts that Super Bowl back in my mind is fine by me.

    Brady is back….back again

    A few pages back (pre-divorce) there was talk about if any of his records will be touched due to his longevity. ESPN has this piece up since it seems likely that Brady will be the first player to cross 100,000 yards passing this Sunday against the Rams (regular and post season)...

    Brady is back….back again

    Or he's just not that good anymore and wants to save face. There's a reason he wasn't on a team until a couple of weeks ago. My hunch is if he was seeing 10-15 targets a game he'd be feeling a little different...

    Brady is back….back again

    Jesus Christ... 'Public drunkenness' and 'not a very good person'? This thread is getting to be a bit much. Who cares that 'people' didn't want him to come back. He likes playing football and is still good at in and wants to do so. If that's a breaking point for their marriage then there's a...

    Dolphins Tampering thread, loss of 2 picks and Ross suspended

    Point me to the story about Brady orchestrating his way out of town on the eve of a Super Bowl. These are just not even remotely the same thing.

    Dolphins Tampering thread, loss of 2 picks and Ross suspended

    I do feel like we're getting a bit hyperbolic here. The final pick six was when they needed to force something with seconds left to go in the final game. In the Dolphins game, he drove them to the leading score before the defense shat the bed. Should Tom have been flirting with the Dolphins...

    What was your favorite Tom Brady moment?

    agree with everything here and it doesn’t even mention the fact that he split open his hand a few days earlier. Just silly stuff.

    What was your favorite Tom Brady moment?

    Probably not my favorite Brady moment, but the 'we're on to Cincinatti' game after the debacle in Kansas City was pretty special. Not only the game itself and how he played, but the 'Brady! Brady! Brady!' chants from the crowd and how everyone responded... probably the most in sync I've seen the...
