there is no temperature @ which the jets win that game

johnny crunch, Sunday, 31 December 2017 21:17 (six years ago) link

romo was p funny the last few minutes

johnny crunch, Sunday, 31 December 2017 21:18 (six years ago) link

yeah, if they played that game on the surface of the sun the jets still lose and both teams are incinerated, except for
Tom Brady who remains unscathed go figure

@bruceallen
Source: ESPN readying new hit piece on Bill Belichick, Tom Brady and Robert Kraft set to publish tomorrow morning at 8am. The topic will be a power struggle among the trio as to who deserves the most credit for the dynasty.

wow its sad to see such 3 such sexy people fight like this

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 00:51 (six years ago) link

The article claims that the rift is so severe many Patriots feel this is the last year together for the trio. Also that Brady went to Kraft to force Belichick to trade Jimmy G. ESPN is planning a full day of promotion tomorrow for the article and its author @SethWickersham

honestly, and i say this as a life long patriots fan, its wld be fn hilarious if they broke up over all three of them being insanely pompous success dads

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 00:58 (six years ago) link

like credit isnt even a real thing how are they keeping score here

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 00:59 (six years ago) link

Is that guy a noteworthy Boston media guy? He's very pasty looking

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Friday, 5 January 2018 01:00 (six years ago) link

Are you guys upset about losing "jimmy g"

on bay area sports talk they say "jimmy g" now with a frequency that i find upsetting

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Friday, 5 January 2018 01:01 (six years ago) link

jimmy g was seen as the successor to brady and it was shocking when he was traded, def got the feeling something was going on behind the scenes, some ppl r prob upset

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:04 (six years ago) link

and how can u not say jimmy g it sounds so right, like some suburban pasta chain with 12 locations throughout central massachusetts and northern connecticut

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:05 (six years ago) link

didn't they basically have to choose between jimmy g & brady cuz of the salary cap

J0rdan S., Friday, 5 January 2018 01:08 (six years ago) link

btw im just here for the drama

J0rdan S., Friday, 5 January 2018 01:08 (six years ago) link

tommy's been looking shaky recently

J0rdan S., Friday, 5 January 2018 01:09 (six years ago) link

i dont really know the details since i dont follow football but yeah keeping jimmy g wldve cost them they wldve had to franchise him next year i think, but also belichick was quoted as saying "i can win with jimmy g" meaning post brady obvs

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:12 (six years ago) link

belichick obvs wld totally do something like cut brady in the offseason, and kraft and brady know that

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:13 (six years ago) link

it's cool that kraft is still dating that gal from the weird deadspin video

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Friday, 5 January 2018 01:14 (six years ago) link

the contours of this story feel more like brady and kraft vs belichick than a three way melee to me

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:14 (six years ago) link

with the main contention being bradys future with the team

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:15 (six years ago) link

a 3 way melee doesn't quite make sense anyway cuz it's not like kraft is gonna sell the team. so it's either brady or belichick.

J0rdan S., Friday, 5 January 2018 01:16 (six years ago) link

yeah the way the tweet is phrased it doesnt really make sense tho i guess i cld see all of them just being sick of each others odious shit

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:18 (six years ago) link

picking a 40 year old player over the greatest coach of all time would be really stupid but also a guy like belichick could more easily just wear on people over time & i could see him getting pushed out even tho it would be the end of the pats dynasty as we know it

J0rdan S., Friday, 5 January 2018 01:18 (six years ago) link

kraft i cld def see letting sentimentality over wanting to see brady retire a patriot sway him, and its not even that big of a deal youd have a year or two of him playing crappy/being injured then hed give up and hopefully u have a young quaterback ready to go, this of course is unacceptable to belichicks reptilian brain

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:21 (six years ago) link

it's never even occurred to me that belichick would coach even for a minute after brady retired

fact checking cuz, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:27 (six years ago) link

and shedding jimmy g was bizarre, but not out-of-proportion bizarre compared to shedding chandler jones or jamie collins or anyone else they're shedded during the brady and beli years.

fact checking cuz, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:30 (six years ago) link

i think it seemed especially bizarre just from the pov that belicheck viewed jimmy g as bradys successor

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:34 (six years ago) link

a QB of jimmy g's caliber if he's really this good is not usually replaceable

J0rdan S., Friday, 5 January 2018 01:53 (six years ago) link

the chances of them getting someone better after brady leaves are not very high i don't think

J0rdan S., Friday, 5 January 2018 01:54 (six years ago) link

ya prob not

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:56 (six years ago) link

tho i can totally understand wanting brady to retire as a patriot, it matters as far as the whole concept of ~a dynasty~

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 01:58 (six years ago) link

as a reluctant close observer of this mess this is otm; kraft helped brady buy his f'n house and i think it would break whatever heart bob has to see brady end his career someplace else. unfortunately brady is also delusional.

call all destroyer, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:01 (six years ago) link

the funniest thing about this is pats fans, esp. "rational" ones, being in complete denial that it could possibly be true.

call all destroyer, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:06 (six years ago) link

its true that brady thinking he has power over time itself is very key to this situation

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:11 (six years ago) link

so brady is whiterose?

fact checking cuz, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:14 (six years ago) link

i understand how much ppl would like there to be a story here, but it's a bit weird no one yet has mentioned how extremely dumb this sounds

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:21 (six years ago) link

also - poly, wait until jimmy gets a social media team behind 'jimmy gq', you'll be longing for the jimmy g days

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:22 (six years ago) link

brady to be fair is still really good tho no

k3vin k., Friday, 5 January 2018 02:24 (six years ago) link

xps

k3vin k., Friday, 5 January 2018 02:25 (six years ago) link

oh there's 100% a story here

call all destroyer, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:27 (six years ago) link

what do you mean?

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:32 (six years ago) link

anyway, on the trade, brady was playing his best football when they moved jimmy. there's really nothing to be explained about why the trade happened. of course, since then he is on the injury report with 2 different things and is probably suddenly, finally, cataclysmically breaking down, so given a do-over i'd vote for keeping jimmy and sending tom to the browns

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:32 (six years ago) link

i don't think bill wanted to trade jimmy and i think he was given a mandate to do so. it may be that simple, or there may be other stuff too, but there's way too much smoke for it to be nothing.

call all destroyer, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:36 (six years ago) link

seth wickersham is pretty connected. greg bedard, who is not in the clickbait business, has repeatedly implied that he knows something along these lines.

call all destroyer, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:39 (six years ago) link

idk stupider things have happened with this football team but it doesn't sound plausible at all to me. doesn't line up at all with the story about belichick clowning john lynch in the summer for inquiring after brady's availability. the trade part is thin and the fight over the dynasty is dumb as hell. we'll see i guess.

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 5 January 2018 02:43 (six years ago) link

i know! i'm just telling you something is going on. i also don't think the trade is that clear-cut. trading brissett, then trading jimmy, and getting a bad receiver, a 2nd, and brian hoyer when you're trying to win a super bowl is an odd use of resources.

call all destroyer, Friday, 5 January 2018 03:14 (six years ago) link

well we will see "competition over who gets credit" certainly doesnt sound very interesting but maybe there will be ~details~

lag∞n, Friday, 5 January 2018 03:35 (six years ago) link

oraying for quality drama
