The home for Patriots fans in Dallas
I think we're ready! This game gave us many opportunities to get our first down chant, our 47 chant, and our high fives in order. No, question, we made big improvements. Jill is even working through an injury. We'll try to avoid putting her on IR. We're all excited for real football to begin. The Patriots gave a decent effort for the last preseason game. The offense looks great. The defense looks soft... too soft. They started the game by allowing the Giants to march right down the field for a touchdown. Brady threw an early interception, his first of the preseason. Things improved and they went back-and-forth for a bit. In the end, the Giants prevailed. And then they were both 0-0, along with the oth
We had a great time watching the Patriots demolish the Falcons on Thursday night. Good turnout for a weeknight. It was a good effort, and we are almost in regular season form. Almost. Don't get me wrong. After a couple of reps, we got the first down chant going strong, got our forty-seven on, and generally made a public nuisance out of ourselves. Belichick would be proud. But we also have some things to work on. For example, charging our camera batteries. There will be no photo gallery for this one. Hey, it's the preseason for us too. We're all on the bubble. We need a good showing on special teams to make the cut. Our Patriots look strong. Some of those young guys might make a huge difference this year.

BTW, Reiss writes a great blog about the Patriots. You can find it at ESPNBoston.com. Stephen

Hello Wanted to share my thoughts overall with the draft. The team that I saw play against the Baltimore Ravens was not the team that I have watched over the last 8 years. It is clear that we have a few holes. D line needs some work. Linebackers are thin and CB are coming along. The O-line is undersized but only allowed Brady to get sacked 16 times. Receivers & TE - Moss and who ... (read more)
The Patriots 2009 season has come to a close in a most disappointing fashion. Looking back on the Patriots season, it should not be unexpected. They just didn't have it all together this year. This is a talented team so I am already excited for next season. It would be premature to declare the end of the Patriots dynasty. As Mark Twain said, "the reports of my death are greatly exaggerated." The P ... (read more)
I hope I haven't let down Stephen, Doug and Bryce with my tardiness in posting what happened at McSwiggan's while they were on the road in Houston. But, I did finally manage to get a little bit up about it. -Ben From the headline, you might think I was referring to the mighty Wes Welker. But no - I am in fact talking about the contingent of fans that turned out at McSwiggan's to see the P ... (read more)
We met the Houston Patriots fan club down in Houston and had a blast. After a beautiful scenic drive down there, thanks to Doug's expert driving, we arrived in time to take an educational tour of downtown Houston and have some dinner at Ruby Tequila's before the party. Great margaritas! The Wet Spot was already packed with Patriots fans. We met Chris, the organizer of the Houston Patriots fan c ... (read more)
The Patriots gave us a generous gift on Sunday with an AFC Eastern Division title. This is how it is supposed to be. The AFC East without the Patriots as Champions just doesn't feel right. The Patriots dominated the Jaguars, taking a 28-0 lead, which could have been even better if tiny dancer hadn't fumbled at the goal line. Brady looked sharp. Moss owned the red zone once again. And Sammy Morr ... (read more)
The Patriots all but locked the division with their win over the Bills. I will feel safer with another win though. I don't want to get into a tie breaker scenario with the Jets or Dolphins, because that hasn't worked out too well in the past. Brady and Moss didn't look that sharp, although Moss talked like he just made a major comeback. Maroney actually looked like an NFL running back. The defense ... (read more)
On December 20, 2009, at 12:00PM, we have an away game against the Bills. Since our Patriots seem to be in the giving spirit this season, I think we should follow their excellent example and take this opportunity to celebrate the holidays together at this game. So let's make this a game watching event AND a Holiday Party! Bring a wrapped gift that costs less than $25 for the first annual Yankee ... (read more)
