As the final minutes of yesterday's 38-20 win by the Patriots over the Philadelphia Eagles wound down, while the Eagles were piling up garbage yards and a garbage TD, talk among some Patriot media (looking at you, Chris Gasper) continued to be about draft busts Jermaine Cunningham and Taylor Price and why they couldn't get on … Continue reading Porous Patriots Defense Allows 400 Yards to Vince Young, Still Manages Undeserved Blowout Win With Roster Full Of Belichick Draft Busts
Some Black Friday Sports Media Links
I hope you survived the Black Friday experience if you went out today. If you decided to shop online, better to do that than wait outside in the cold where the temperatures dropped below freezing overnight. No fun. Anyway, I'll provide the links. The Weekend Viewing Picks are here. To the linkage. National At USA … Continue reading Some Black Friday Sports Media Links
After 31 Point Win, All Is Lost For Patriots
You really don't need to watch the final six games of the season. It doesn't matter what happens. The storylines will be the same. They are set in concrete, and nothing can change them. It started yesterday, following the 34-3 win over the Chiefs. It doesn't mean anything! They beat an injury-riddled team with the worst quarterback … Continue reading After 31 Point Win, All Is Lost For Patriots
Where Are They Now – 1510 The Zone Personalities
With WEEI and 98.5 The SportsHub are battling out on a monthly basis in the ratings, I thought it would be interesting to look back at the first effort at competition for WEEI, the ill-fated 1510 The Zone (Now Revolution Boston) and where some of the personalities from that station are now. 1510 GM Mike … Continue reading Where Are They Now – 1510 The Zone Personalities
Crass Belichick Runs Up The Score On Another Hapless Opponent

We finally got a game in which the media can do some good old-fashioned grousing about Bill Belichick (a "prick" according to Fred Toucher) heartlessly running up the score on another hopelessly defeated opponent. The Patriots 34-3 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs last night did not come as easily as the score would … Continue reading Crass Belichick Runs Up The Score On Another Hapless Opponent
Patriots, Chiefs On Monday Night Stage Tonight
The Patriots take on the Kansas City Chiefs on ESPN's Monday Night Football tonight. With a win, New England will tie Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Houston with the best record in the AFC.

Joe Sullivan Shows Who He Really Is
Since the Bill Belichick era began, coverage from the Boston Globe has been pretty consistent. With the exception of Mike Reiss and Greg Bedard, (who I've disagreed with a couple of time, but overall I think is excellent, and very objective in his coverage.) the coverage of the Patriots coming out of Morrissey Blvd has been routinely … Continue reading Joe Sullivan Shows Who He Really Is
