But back then it was the Colts so it was different.

Yesterday I was ripped for not addressing Jason Taylor's comments, and today I am ripped for doing it. <BR/><BR/>Also, something else I read on a different blog: Remember a few years ago, when Manning and the Colts were blowing teams out and had a shot at going undefeated, while the Patriots won close games with solid defense and superior coaching? Back then, Pats fans were complaining about no respect for their team that played the "right way." Now the roles are reversed, and we are supposed to respect the way the Pats are blowing teams out. <BR/><BR/>Just thought that was interesting. I am sure there is a "logical" reason for that too.Luke Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15794556619520450782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-91712439231026962552007-10-25T16:02:00.000-04:002007-10-25T16:02:00.000-04:00wow, tony's alive. and he's the villain, thats cra...wow, tony's alive. and he's the villain, thats crazy shitness. thanks patriotsnation.David Kippehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09873631867494898033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-49322064309147529282007-10-25T15:54:00.000-04:002007-10-25T15:54:00.000-04:0024 Trailerhttp://www.24trailer.com/24 Trailer<BR/>http://www.24trailer.com/PatriotsNationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06135734612898802153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-79931500123798264222007-10-25T14:51:00.000-04:002007-10-25T14:51:00.000-04:00San Diego’s Jake Peavy and Cleveland’s C.C.

The NHL collective agreement states that only players who are 18 years old by Sept. 15 of each year are eligible for that year's entry draft.<BR/>But there is nothing that would prevent Tavares from playing for the Toronto Marlies in the American Hockey League, which operates as the farm system for the NHL.<BR/>An NHL source said Ferguson, the Maple Leafs general manager, recently contacted Tavares' agents, Brian McDonald and Bryan Deasley, and offered the young forward a contract for a minimum of three years. The source said Ferguson has not received a response yet.PatriotsNationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06135734612898802153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-2880251042218623132007-10-25T12:29:00.001-04:002007-10-25T12:29:00.001-04:00Not to beat the dead horse yet again, but here is ...Not to beat the dead horse yet again, but here is a little something from the Miami Herald:<BR/><BR/>"Some Dolphins players were unhappy about the Patriots throwing with a big lead Sunday.

Remember that a really good winning percentage in any sport is .667 (okay any sport with level playing field. College athletics are skewed because of the wide range of talent levels).<BR/><BR/>LSU could just as easily have lost 3 games, or lost 0. It's why polls are about the worst way to determine who the best team is.<BR/><BR/>So yes OSU got beat, badly, last year in the title game, but that isn't completely indicative of how good a team they were last season. It's factored in, but you can't judge their season on one game. And the Rox got beat badly, last night, but that isn't necessarily indicative of how tonight is going to go.Jibblescribbitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17833352311064492403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-27216761793127707592007-10-25T11:56:00.000-04:002007-10-25T11:56:00.000-04:00One stat stood out in my mind last night.In one ga...One stat stood out in my mind last night.<BR/><BR/>In one game, the Sox outscored the D-bags in 4 games. 13-8marcomarcohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17507640418000407851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-43940039375386648762007-10-25T11:44:00.001-04:002007-10-25T11:44:00.001-04:00The East is going to be a total crap shoot this ye...The East is going to be a total crap shoot this year.
