Cheating or Gamesmanship?

I've got to tell you that I've heard quotes from the following:
Hines Ward: They we're calling out our signals in the 02 Championship game (Hines Ward has always hated the Pats)
Big Ben: We should be awarded the Super Bowl Title (Easy Big Guy)
Shaun Alexander: When we played them I thought they were one step ahead of us all the time
L.T.: Whatever they do doesn't surprise me (Does he know that Marty S. is one of the kings of stealing signals)
and I'm sure there will be many others. The Patriots are a great team because they have great players and great coaches. A lot goes in to each game and most coaches are always going to find an edge. This goes on ALL THE TIME!!!!! and in all sports. Do these players think that their coaches have never attempted to steal signals? They do every week or at least they try. So let the world come down on the Pats. They've been successful for a long time and everybody is always looking to defeat the kings and bring them down. I haven't heard any comments from any of the good teams...just the teams that stink. One college coach said it the best " In a conference of ten teams, nine of them steal signals and the one that doesn't is in 10th place. Do you think the Colts were stealing signals last year when their defense was horrible during the regular season and all of the sudden they looked like a pro bowl defense for the playoffs? Any comments from Colts camp? The Patriots tried to steal signals just like every other "good" team in the NFL. What about when the Miami defense had the Patriots signals last year and knew everything they were running? If this was the Arizona Cardinals this wouldn't be 1st page news.

Yes, I'm a Pats fan and know that most people are pissed off at this but it really doesn't affect the outcome of games. Games are played by players and the players not robots. We'd have to go back to every team thats been shut out in a game or look at the major upsets that have taken place and wonder. As I said before this shouldn't surprise anyone because it goes on all the time and every team knows it. We actually haven't heard from any NFL coaches other than Mike Tomlin (Rookie) and Herm Edwards (whose team sucks anyways) and he mentioned that he knows that this goes on in the NFL, like he said it's nothing new. Teams should do a better job with their signals and yes people, most good teams change their signals when they play a team twice in the year for this reason. This is "big news" because it's the Patriots and everbody wants them to go down.

Don't take this away from the players that work hard every year. This is really a minor thing but it's unfortunate that Goodell has to make an example out of them. They will lose draft choices and Bill may be suspended. He's still one of the best as is his team. I think this may motivate them even more.

Stick behind your team and your coach. They've brought a lot of joy to our Region the past 7 years. This is something most will forget about soon. I think all NFL teams are relieved it wasn't them. Maybe teams should worry about protecting signals instead of whining.

Big Crowds in Boston

Boston is home of several hundred thousand catholics. I'm proud to be catholic and for what the catholic religion stands for. I was confirmed in the 10th grade and can still remember the first communion gifts I received. My faith is still with me today and it's because of the Catholic upbringing I had. I will carry it with me always.

Boston Area Business Cards

How many business card printing places are there in the Boston Area? Do a local search online and you'll find a ton of them. Find out how long it takes for them to print. If you have a high quality printer you may do them yourself. I found a company online that takes the worry out of everything and produces them at a very high quality. Business Cards aren't like they were a few years ago and the quality is amazing.

Patriots in the Playoffs

The NE Pats face the NY Jets in a rematch of coaches aka. (Genius vs. Mangenius). My prediction is Pats 24 Jets 14. Coach Bill better have a better gameplan this time around. I live in Raleigh NC and there are plenty of Patriot fans all around me. This is probably the second best area in the country to watch a football game. My best friend, who's a Raleigh Real Estate Agent, is a Jets fan and hopefully I'll be able to tolerate him during the game. His prediction is Jets 31 Pats 24......Whatever!!

BMI and Athletes

I need the same fat burner product the David Ortiz has been on to improve my BMI. It's truly amazing the shape these professional athletes keep themselves in by exercising and keep track of quality vitamins and supplements. With the outbreak of Steriods in professional sports it makes you wonder when someones BMI is outrageous. I want to help bring the good back into sports by spreading the word on quality sports nutritional products.

Patriots fan in Raleigh

I live in a subdivision with a lot of fellow NE Patriots fans in Raleigh NC. This weekend is sure to be fun as I watch our most hated rival play our beloved Pats. The Colts are a very good team but we have them at home this time. As I ponder my next move to Raleigh, I just purchased a Raleigh North Carolina Real Estate Investment property, I left thinking that my boys may lose this weekend. Colts 24-Pats 17...Ouch!!

Patriots VS Minnesota

The Pats have a tough test against the Vikings. My prediction is NE 24 MN 7. I'm personally prepping for my trip to Miami when they play the Dolphins. I'm stopping off in Orlando for a few days before driving to the Dolphins game. We got a great deal on on a few Orlando Town homes and this should be a truly exciting trip. Go pats!!
