Bye Bye, Slouch!

Bye Bye, Slouch!

Wow! Randy Mouse is again a Viking. What can I say other than, good riddance. I loved Randy for much of his time as a Patriots player. But his primma donna attitude won't be missed by this Patriots fan. I really think that he was dogging it to force a trade. Brady was visibly upset when Moss dropped the touchdown pass on Monday night. I think that relationship was strained too. It's for the bes ... (read more)

A Special Win

A Special Win

What is there to say? The Patriots broke out in a big way on the big stage. They scored five different ways, which is an NFL record. It was also enough to get the special teams coordinator of the Dolphins fired this morning. Patrick Chung was a monster with two blocked kicks and an interception return for a touchdown. Ninkovich added in two interceptions and a sack, inspiring us to salute his n ... (read more)

I’m Always Happy to Get Bills on Sundays

I'm Always Happy to Get Bills on Sundays

The Bills came at just the right time. The Patriots defense still looks like it has some work to do, but the Patriots did enough today. The offense is rolling. Chung and McCourtey look great. Mayo played better. Merriweather made some plays. All the Patriots need is for the whole unit to play as a team and they'll be fine. We had a good crowd today, yet again. I'm always glad to see new peopl ... (read more)

Just a Bump in the Road to the Super Bowl

By Stephen on

Alright, this one is long overdue. The game against the Jets sucked! Really, it did. However, we packed McSwiggans once again, and our fan-club-turned-support-group actually had a lot of fun. It might have been the second biggest turnout, so I'm very happy that you all made it out to watch the game with us. A special welcome to Dirty 2.0. We missed you, Dirty! I've already erased this gam ... (read more)

New Beginnings

New Beginnings

What a beginning to the season! Not just for the Patriots, who looked great by the way, but for our humble group. Ok, so we're not so humble. But we started out from humble beginnings and we have grown into a great home away from home here in the DFW area. Thank you to all of the long-standing fans and the new members for making this a rowdy, fun, and I think lovable group of Patriots fans. I mea ... (read more)

Ready for the Season

Ready for the Season

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 defen ... (read more)

Preseason for the Fans

Preseason for the Fans

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 ... (read more)

Best Place to Watch the Patriots

By Stephen on July 7, 2010

Mike Reiss wrote an article on ESPNBoston.com about the best places to watch the Patriots. Here is the portion for Dallas: Dallas 1. Stephen writes: "I run a Patriots fan club in Dallas. We watch the games at McSwiggans Irish Pub in The Colony, Texas. It's a great Boston pub. The owner and manager are both from Mass.

Patriots Draft 2010

By DugPatsFan on February 16, 2010

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 End is Just the Beginning

The End is Just the Beginning

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)
