According to a source in Major League Baseball, the reason the Red Sox-Twins deal, which includes Johan Santana, has not happened is because the Twins apparently want Jon Lester and Clay Buchholz to be part of the deal. The Red Sox, according to the source said the Sox don’t want to include Lester. That is [...]
EIGHT PATRIOTS SELECTED TO AFC PRO BOWL SQUAD Brady, Koppen, Light, Mankins, Moss, Samuel, Vrabel and Wilfork earn All-Star honors; Five Patriots are first-time All-Stars; Three Patriots offensive linemen are All-Stars for first time since 1970 merger FOXBORO — Eight members of the New England Patriots have been selected to represent the Patriots and the [...]
I’d like to know what you think. Should the Patroits err on the side of safety, particularly with their quarterback, Tommy Brady, or should they go with the “60 minutes” motto they’ve been professing lately? To be honest, I can’t figure out Bill Belichick’s intentions. Just when I believe I have him somewhat figured out, [...]
Let’s get right to them: 1. The New England Patriots can run the ball. It was a lingering question. And while it was against the Jets (30th in NFL, allowing 141 yards per game), because of the weather the Jets knew it was coming and couldn’t shut it down. It wasn’t a great day running [...]

An interesting inactives list for the Patriots. Pats starting tight end Ben Watson and starting free safety James Sanders are out of today’s game with the Jets, which means Willie Andrews or Eugene Wilson will replacing Sanders and Kyle Brady will play most of the game as the No. 1 tight end. Here is the [...]
Eagle-Tribune’s Hector Longo has an interesting story that didn’t make all papers about the Pats-Jets game. Check it out here: Patriots should do the right thing and lose today FOXBORO | Patriots fans crave blood today. They want Eric Mangini’s Jets to pay and pay dearly for implicating this team in “videogate.” I say Bill [...]
I just arrived at Gillette Stadium and a few things stick out: 1. Traffic was bad, but not as bad as I thought it would be. The reason is the farther south, the less snow. We (Hector Longo and myself) left the Merrimack Valley about 8:45 a.m. and pulled into the lot just after 11 [...]

We’ve had 24 hours to peruse the Mitchell Report and frankly nothing has changed in my book. Roger Clemens is still in trouble. The MLB Players Association still doesn’t care about the “epidemic.” And I believe this report, while not harnessing a lot of hard evidence (two guys really), will be a great thing for [...]
