This weekend, I got to see a true Gronk spike for the first time in a year and a half. I was so excited about it until I reminded myself, once again, that it occurred in Buccaneer Orange and not Patriots Navy. Setting those emotions aside, let me start again. This weekend for the Pats

Dear Mr. Newton, Welcome to New England. You’re much closer to my home right now than I am, but let me just say thank you for being there. You’ve brought new life to the quarterback position at Gillette Stadium and I could not be more grateful, nor could Foxborough. While I should’ve known more, I

This weekend was a football fan’s dream. After a solid Fighting Irish victory on Saturday, it seemed a near miracle that all 32 NFL teams were cleared to play in Week 1. The Chiefs-Texans Thursday night game (Andy Reid’s foggy face shield and all) was a good prelude to the full slate of games on

Dear Tom Brady, What the heck, man? I’m hurt. Truly, I’m hurt. I know there are diehard fans, who know more of your stats or who can rattle off every great pass you’ve ever thrown or who can date every heartwrencher out of which you’ve pulled the entire fanbase. But Tom let me ask you

Reports this week have emerged confirming that quarterback Tom Brady will enter free agency on March 18. This will be the first time in Brady’s 20-year tenure with the Patriots that he has been a free agent. Experts and the public alike are split on what would be Brady’s best move going forward: Return for

On paper the Patriots look so good. Up until Sunday, they were 10-1 with arguably the best defense in the league and good enough offense to hold their own. Before Sunday, being a Pats fan took little to no effort. And then they went down to Houston. Now I know what you’re thinking — “Wasn’t

I’ve said multiple times now in my stories that I am a proud native of Lexington, Kentucky. If you ask me, my hometown is the best place on earth. However, the one thing it — and the State of Kentucky — are lacking is a professional sports team. Because of this, I’m pretty much, by

On February 3, 2002, a 24-year old quarterback returned from a knee injury for the most important game in football. Staring down a tie game in which his team had been vastly outgained in yards, the young quarterback drove his team the length of the field, and the kicker did the rest. Tom Brady became
