He's still a monster, though.

God, please let AB tear NE apart...even though I don't think it's going to happen.

Just the one kid, but she's fine, thanks; all well our your way? We're back Stateside now, which is part of why I've not been around much, because both my wifes green card and finding places for both of us to live and work were an extended process.

Flipping Patriots -- that was his plan all along. He got his release today and signs with the Pats the same day. Drew Rosenhaus had already worked the entire B.S. saga out.

There was never any way Brown was going to play for the lowly Raiders! He wants to win a Championship, which will do infinitely more to promote his brand than any amount of money he could get playing in Oakland.

Mark my words, if the owners don't clamp down on this sort of shit, the NFL is going to wind up like the NBA where the players all decide where they want play and cities like Denver are "flyover" places the top players like Kyrie, Lebron, Anthony Davis, Kawhi Leonard, Kevin Durant, Paul George, etc. never would consider at all.

I just hope someone breaks his ******* leg in about 4 places the first week!

"The acquisition of Brown moved the Patriots past the Kansas City Chiefs and into the role of Super Bowl favorites at multiple Las Vegas sportsbooks. The Patriots went from 6-1 to 4-1 to win the Super Bowl at the SuperBook at Westgate Las Vegas. The Chiefs are 6-1."

I get the sentiment but you know how Denver is thin across the Board at multiple positions right. Don't jinx injuries on other players now!

Somehow Denver is a victim in this?

On the plus side, I will hope that DT is released and never plays a down there.

What a total JERK.

Well this is going to be a sucky season. I can't handle another pats title living here.

Faider Nation is pissed. Cant really blame them but if they want to be really petty Gruden could press charges on Brown for illegally recording him. But i doubt that Gruden is going to care that much but would be interesting if the Pats found themselves in another "scandal".
