#DFG: Canceling the Noise

[brandonchristensen]

14 mins late so far...

 

[Valek123]

Delaygate

Awesome.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Belichick extension would be cool.

 
That would be classic

 

[TSC]

Goddamnit this is nerve racking.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Belichick extension would be great---as in spygate, Kraft sending clear message "I am focused on our team winning more games not this other baloney"

 

[loshjott]

would pats.com be tweeting tune-ins if it was bad news? no, right?

Part of the plea agreement.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Either that or he's just trying to pee.  He is 62, after all.

 

[Buck Showalter]

zzzzzzzz
 
cmon already

 

[brandonchristensen]

So they said "MAJOR announcement"?

 

[E5 Yaz]

Opening ceremonies of the 2024 Olympics ...

 

[brandonchristensen]

 

[Dollar]

I really hope it's not about the Winter Classic.  But I guess that would be better than any sort of Belichick announcement or Deflateballs statement.

 

[twibnotes]

"We are here today to announce that the krafts have agreed to finally install escalators at gillette. We will now take questions"

 

[LogansDad]

Just got back from picking the kids up and saw this.... now I'm gonna puke.

 

[CantKeepmedown]

So they said "MAJOR announcement"?

ESPN notification to my phone said, "team expected to make significant announcement"

 

[PeaceSignMoose]

If this is a press conference about next year's winter classic I may die.

 

[geoduck no quahog]

My guess? Patriots are stating that due to the unnecessary and ridiculous distractions being posed by the press concerning this issue, they have decided that there will be no more press briefings or interactions with the press until after the Superbowl. Mr. Kraft will cover all financial penalties involved.

 

[54thMA]

Is this being picked up by any channels, I'm not finding this anywhere

 

[E5 Yaz]

Twitter is silent. PK tweeted that he should write two columns as a tribute to Ernie Banks

 

[YTF]

Could it be as simple as BB telling the press not to waste their time asking about Deflategate because as per the NFLPA the Patriots will no longer be commenting on the matter?

 

[Ed Hillel]

Maybe Wilfork missed his weight clause.

 

[Jnai]

They're holding a press conference to announce they're having no more press conferences? This is awfully meta.

 

[Infield Infidel]

patriots.com

 

[Valek123]

What channel are people watching, Klay Thompson had a night huh?

Sorry, know that was the very definition of game threading...

 

[Mystic Merlin]

I can't tell if the lack of leaks is scary or not.
 
I think scary.

 

[Buck Showalter]

Damn I hated the Cowboys.....
 
This video is reminding me of those feelings

 

[bankshot1]

Max global xposure for the Winter Classic?

 

[PedroKsBambino]

BB is going to officially introduce Ernie Adams as an assistant coach

 

[tims4wins]

ESPNews says conference forthcoming

 

[cshea]

I'll admit, I'm nervous. 

 

[Corsi]

Is this meta?

 

[moondog80]

"Major announcement" rings of WWF. Vince Wilfork is entering the Royal Rumble.

 

[soxfanSJCA]

He's having the presser right now, but only with Kyed and other moderates whom did not pile on to the witch hunt express.
These folks are simply being punked.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Maybe Wilfork missed his weight clause.

 
He'll be in a sauna pregame, then reach weight by gametime

 

[Dollar]

I hope they're announcing the signing and subsequent release of some member of the Ventrone family.

 

[brandonchristensen]

I'm super nervous ... :/

 

[kartvelo]

 
He'll be in a sauna pregame, then reach weight by gametime

Shrinkage!

 

[brandonchristensen]

20 mins late.

 

[twibnotes]

I fear this is part of a "settlement" with the NFL

 

[loshjott]

I'll admit, I'm nervous. 

I don't see anything good coming of this. I hope I'm wrong.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Aaron Hernandez signed for the Super Bowl

 

[Leather]

Ugh. He's probably talking to the team. Which is why he's late.

 

[RIrooter09]

Every play in 1972 would result in a flag today.

 

[E5 Yaz]

I fear this is part of a "settlement" with the NFL

 
I don't fear that, especially if this makes it all go away

 

[H78]

"Major announcement" rings of WWF. Vince Wilfork is entering the Royal Rumble.

Holy shit. I legit laughed out loud for a full minute.

 

[brandonchristensen]

If Bill does something drastic, I hope he does it shirtless.

 

[Buck Showalter]

horrible pass by Griese.
 
Should have put in Don Strock

 

[johnmd20]

Delay is angering me.

 

[P'tucket rhymes with...]

I fear this is part of a "settlement" with the NFL

Hard to believe this sort of deal is the best Kraft could get, but you might be right.

 

[staz]

WTF IS GOING ON?
