I’m so glad to see Ty Law in the HOF. He was everything a CB should be: man, zone, good hands, a tackler, physical, at his best when the lights were brightest.

Gronk got out on his own terms, and accomplished everything possible in an NFL career. What else can you ask of him? He’s got more left in him, but it’s better to leave with something in reserve.

This is the best team the Red Sox have ever had. Most wins. Rolled two great teams (and one good one) in the playoffs. Home or road, they always seemed to have a Never Scared halo above their heads. #RelentlessChamps

The Patriots are on their way to 11-5 and the 2 seed in the AFC. If this is the so-called desert of the dynasty, I think the dynasty is a lot better than we all thought.

AB to the Patriots. This is one of the core tools in the Belichick kit: acquire a talented player when he appears to be toxic and in the depths. And if Brown doesn’t adapt, the team will move on. #highriskmuchhigherreward
