let's hold off until 25-30 games in and see how they look. if they are say 8-22 after 30 games then there is legit cause for concern. i think they'll sort things out as season progresses.

Herp derp. You are 1 "special" little man, aren't you? If you feel like re-visiting that and getting owned, yet again, please respond in that thread. See post 73, and try to post ANY type of sourced proof to refute it.

You don't see it because you don't pay attention
Most fans criticized the horrible play calling in the playoffs vs the Jets last year, especially in the 4th quarter. Most fans criticized the lack of effort/enthusiasm of the Celtics during the last few weeks. Most fans are criticizing the weak effort from the Sox hitters and bone-headed plays (like Varitek made last night), and that's only 5 games in.
There. One example from each team, all within a month of them last playing. But you're right, we don't criticize our teams
Oh, and the reason we are so quick to defend is because we have so many haters. Dominant teams for a decade= haters. It also =more bandwagon fans, which in turn, = more haters. Should we just let people talk shit about our team? You wouldn't respond if someone started a thread saying the Yankees blow?Comment -
Yes, still mad about that miracle BS catch that cost us a perfect season and having the undisputed greatest team ever (note- team, not franchise). Still have the best coach and QB in the game, so the Pats will compete for a few more years... how bout the Giants?
Not mad about the Yankees tho. That's just a well-run team, as much as I hate the SteinbrennersComment -
i owned and sold you so many times in that thread it was the epitome of beating a dead horse.
how do you respond to a dumbass that believes dickhead cheney had no connections to haliburton when he was still on their payroll and held their stocks as vice president? you cant, its like arguing with a simpleton wearing a helmet.Comment -
Except he would've gotten those payments no matter what! If Halliburton went bankrupt, he still would have gotten them. They could've gone bankrupt the day he took office and still would have received those payments. And the stock options were all donated to charity, as he promised they would during the campaign, and he had ZERO CONTROL OVER WHEN THEY WERE CASHED IN BECAUSE A THIRD PARTY WAS GIVEN CONTROL OF THEM.
Go ahead, let's see your response to that. Alll my sources are in that thread. Please stop de-railing other threads, and respond in that one, if you really think you're right I linked it for you

bs catch wasnt what beat u. how about that dominant defense that shut ur asses down?Yes, still mad about that miracle BS catch that cost us a perfect season and having the undisputed greatest team ever (note- team, not franchise).

funny that hoody hasnt won anything ever since he got caught cheating and filming opponents practices. just another overrated cheater.
brady got outplayed by a second year qb and all the pats fans blame bad play calling and "injury" when he couldnt hit water if he fell off the boat. talk about delusional.
pats, celtics and red sox wont win anything for awhile. they are old, crippled and useless kinda like bush, cheney and you.Comment -
best offense in the history of the game
no worries.. hence getting shut out today tooComment -
holy shit. You love just making stuff up, don't you? Belichick never taped any practices he taped opponents signals during games, which wasn't even against the rules
THE RULE THEY BROKE
From the NFL's Constitution & Bylaws (article 9): "Any use by any club at any time, from the start to the finish of any game in which such club is a participant, of any communications or information-gathering equipment, other than Polaroid-type cameras or field telephones, shall be prohibited, including without limitation videotape machines, telephone tapping, or bugging devices, or any other form of electronic devices that might aid a team during the playing of a game."
Focus on that last part... "that might aid a team DURING THE PLAYING OF A GAME". If it wasn't used during the game, it wasn't against the rules. The Pats were punished because Belichick essentially ignored a memo from Goodell, specifying where videotaping could take place. Goodell, as any NFL fan knows, rules with an "iron fist". He doesn't mess around, which is why the Pats were penalizedComment -
ive already answered this multiple times. you just cant handle the truth. you think someone who has profited over $50 million being in bed with haliburton for 2 decades has zero loyalty and shows no favoritism towards them.... even tho he awarded them billions in no bid contract for iraq.Except he would've gotten those payments no matter what! If Halliburton went bankrupt, he still would have gotten them. They could've gone bankrupt the day he took office and still would have received those payments.

but ur right about one thing, this isnt the thread to destroy you in politics, ill keep it to destroying u in sports.Comment -
LOL. First, Cheney has no influence on who the Army Corps of Engineers contracts out to... so Cheney didn't award anyone anythingive already answered this multiple times. you just cant handle the truth. you think someone who has profited over $50 million being in bed with haliburton for 2 decades has zero loyalty and shows no favoritism towards them.... even tho he awarded them billions in no bid contract for iraq.
but ur right about one thing, this isnt the thread to destroy you in politics, ill keep it to destroying u in sports.. Second, why did Halliburton get no-bids under Clinton too? Was Clinton or Gore profitting from it? Apparently that's the only reason you think no-bids are awarded, is if someone in the White House is profitting

you keep proving the other guys point about how you dont criticize your teams, no matter how horribly they play (brady vs jets) and how much belicheat cheats.

No tape of the walkthrough ever existed! Boston Herald admitted their source lied
Have any other fails?
Edit- and Brady did have a poor game, I agree. He wasn't the biggest reason they lost thoughComment -

dickhead cheney had no influence? then why did the bush administration use a law to circumvent the normal bidding process under the guise of national security?LOL.

meanwhile haliburtons competitors who were very qualified to do the job were repeatedly rejected even though they had already began talking to haliburton.
"they basically told us that there wasnt going to be any oil well fires."
grace showed 60 minites a letter from the department of defense saying: "the department is aware of a broad range of well firefighting capabilities and techniques available. however, we believe it is too early to speculate what might happen in the event that war breaks out in the region."
it was dated dec 30 2002, more than a month after the army corps of engineers began talking to haliburton about putting out oil well fires in iraq.
only a braindead neocon idiot can not connect the obvious dots.
clinton & gore never profited from haliburton like dickhead cheney for $50 million you moron.Comment -
Esposito flat out gutted this roster
no way can a decimated team like this be competitive in Yanks division
looking forward to contention around 2016-2018Comment -
How do you know they didn't profit? Why else would they give no-bids?dickhead cheney had no influence? then why did the bush administration use a law to circumvent the normal bidding process under the guise of national security?

And again, Cheney had no financial incentive to keep helping Halliburton, so why would he? I just don't get why no bids are ok under Clinton, but not under Bush?
If no one in the administration was profitting, what's the difference?
Let me guess, you'll go back to the "he had a salary and stock options, he was getting paid off", even though I already proved that wrong, with FactCheck.org as my source

"walsh, a former scout, told the coach he saw marshall faulk lined up to return a kick.and he saw.the rams tight end roll to one side depending on the defensive coverage. faulk did return a kickoff just before the end of the first half of the game. walsh provided inside information that might have been beneficial to the patriots"Maybe you should have read the links on the side of that page, especially this one-

check-fukin-mate.
bunch of cheaters. enjoy your 0-6. lolComment -
knowing what plays and formations your opponent will use doesnt help you?
its like trying to potty train a 5 year old....
enjoy your 0-6. :rofl:Comment -
Where was the quote from? Where's the link? It makes NO sense, because there is no context... please provide a link for it if you want me to take it seriously.
According to your quote, Walsh saw Faulk line up for a kickoff... who didn't? If its during the game, everyone saw it
Edit- I am fully aware its talking about the walkthrough, but again, no source/context, so it doesn't hold on its own. Please source that so I can prove you wrong, for the millionth timeComment -
hopeless.....

You're gonna love this, crusty... from YOUR link (which I already proved wrong, in regards to the walkthrough taping, which never happened). At the end of the article, Goodell is asked about why he destroyed the tapes that the Pats turned over-
"We wanted to take and destroy that information," Goodell said. "They may have collected it within the rules, but we couldn't determine that. So we felt that it should be destroyed."
THEY MAY HAVE COLLECTED IT WITHIN THE RULES. That means that videotaping signals is NOT against the rules, but rather the location of the videotaping being done. Let me reiterate that... it is NOT cheating to steal signals, per the commissioners own words.
That stings, huh?Comment
