Border War Simply “High School” Move by Jets
While there are plenty of articles in the papers this morning talking about the renewed "border war" between the Patriots and the Jets with New York's signing of former Patriot (and Jet) Ty Law this week, I come down on the side of my colleague Scott Benson, who wrote yesterday on Patriots Daily: What a … Continue reading Border War Simply “High School” Move by Jets
Thank you, veterans everywhere
One week ago today, we elected a new president. Most were happy with the pick, but many weren't.
