Thanks to the generosity of New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, the IFL is sponsored by the Kraft Family.

awww sorry wrong thread!

“I wear them, they’re comfortable, they work for me, I don’t have to wear regular clothes,” (Ridley) said. “I wake up in the morning, put my underwear on, jump in my onesie and I’m out the door. It saves time. I get more sleep if I wear a onesie because I don’t have to wear regular clothes.”

He has given them to teammates, and even left one for Bill Belichick last week.

“I’m going to see if I can get him to wear it — it’s got the sleeves cut off and everything so he’s ready to go,” Ridley said, laughing. “He has no excuse.”

Ridley FTW

arian foster is the best

lol

Shaughnessy hates the Pats far more than the Texans do imo

I loved how Arian said he didn't believe in momentum in the postgame interview against cincy, after being asked the classic inane "will this win give you momentum going into next week?"

Talk about what a win like this means for your team.

just taking it week by week

patriots pr0n:

Ironically, the "old news" and ensuing four-game suspension earlier this season, said Talib, ended up being the "best thing" that ever happened to his football career.

Three weeks into the suspension, he became a Patriot.

Recalling the day, he smiled from ear to ear.

"I had heard about the Patriots and the way they do things, all that stuff," said Talib. "You know what? It's true. This is heaven. This is football heaven."
...

"I love him. Everybody here loves him," said Patriots safety Patrick Chung. "He has fit in really well. He has a lot of confidence. He can cover. He can tackle. I couldn't say enough good things about Aqib. He's the real deal."

Apparently, the feelings are more than mutual.

"As soon as you walk in the building you notice it," said Talib. "It's all about team here. Everybody is a professional. I have never experienced anything like this. I see the owner, Mr. (Robert) Kraft every day. That's amazing, man. Coach Belichick treats everybody like a man, with respect. He's a cool guy."

Talib could go on. And he did.

"I am a Patriot," said Talib. "It feels like I was meant to be here ... The coaches here are so good, too. It's all about football. It's one day at a time. It's the perfect place to play football. I don't know what else to say."

Even coach Bill Belichick, a man of few words, sings Talib's praises.

"There's no doubt that Aqib has helped our secondary," he said. "He's a very smart and confident player who works hard. He has a good attitude and he fits in well. I've enjoyed coaching him."

...

"I don't want to talk about the future," said Talib. "I'm only focused on today. And when I come here tomorrow, I'll be focused on tomorrow ... But if you ask me if this is where I want to be? Of course, I do. Every player should play here."

also the first time in history bill belichick has been called a "cool guy"

let's play poker with kevin faulk!

Can ILX pool together some money to discuss end of year critic's polls with Kevin Faulk?

iirc pats reporters have been saying since midway last season that chung was done in NE

oh yeah, he was done

NFL Draft Bible ‏@NFLDraftBible
It's official. Wes Welker to the Broncos. 2-yr deal.

booooooooo

ha people pointing out that welker changed his twitter avatar yesterday to a pic of him and his wife in aspen with Colorado flag hat.

pats only offered 10m over 2 years? lol

bye Welkah, next time try not to drop the ball when it hits you in the numbers during a major playoff game

yeah that's right, fuck that guy.

denver come to foxboro next season

things that are cheap: talk, patriots ownership

supposedly landed amendola

on a 5-year deal

if you believe that staying healthy is a skill it's hard to get excited about this

stockpiling injury prone inside receivers in the hope that at least one of them is fit for any given game.

amendola will do well when he is on the field

woah now, 31m over 5 yrs! i hope half of that is in the 5th year

i don't know what his contract looks like but i'd wager he would. i think the depth chart will probably be something like:

wr 1- richochet caldwell/stallworth
wr 2- caldwell/stallworth/gaffney
wr3- caldwell/stallworth/gaffney
wr4- troy brown/chad jackson/welker
wr5 -brown/jackson/welker/whatever other scrubs they sign.

brown's probably gone now thtat i look at it.

chicago kevin wrote this on thread the rolling OFFSEASON MOVES thread on board I Love NFL on Mar 13, 2007

with brown probably on his way out and kevin faulk entering the twilight of his career welker will probably be used primarily (if not solely) on special teams. i would be shocked if welker is anything more than a #3 receiver, i think he'll be situational at best.

not chicago kevin's finest moment

thats prob what most people thought tho

he was not a famous popular nfl receiver at the time

yeah there were a few '06 dolphins games that made me take notice but not everyone saw those games i'm sure

i do remember liking the signing, he seemed like a great breakout candidate, though not to the levels he achieved

playing with tom brady is pretty sweet

underestimate "good guy" receivers with "intangibles" and "grittiness" and "a superior work ethic" at your own risk is the lesson here

it was so sweet for chad jackson, and donte stallworth, and chad johnson, and brandon tate, and joey galloway

life is a pretty sweet fruit

there are only so many balls
