Re: 2023-24 Schedule (top post is current)
A few thoughts based on reading this thread: The 2009 v. 2023 schedule comparison is apples and oranges to me. Coaches should build a schedule based on where there team is at.

Re: 2023-24 Schedule (top post is current)
Schedule is about what I expected since we need to pad some wins to start getting some momentum under Archie. The JWU game is certainly odd but it’s whatever to me.

Re: The Patriot Way
I don't understand the timing of this signing with Dalvin Cook still on the market. Zeke is 19 days older than Cook but has way more wear and tear than Cook. Between college and NFL, Cook has 1,969 total carries, whereas Zeke has 2,473 carries across college and NFL, so 500+ more carries. Zeke's YPG...

Re: Red Sox and other Major League Baseball
Another trade deadline masterclass from Chaim. Doesn’t add to the team nor does he sell off Duvall or Paxton. Second straight year that Bloom has flopped at the deadline. Could have sold off Xander, JD, Eovaldi last year too.
This clown has gotta go. He has no plan.

Re: Red Sox and other Major League Baseball
Red Sox are still a last place team and 2.5 out of final wild card. Don’t let Chaim move the goalposts.
Very interested to see what Sox do at deadline considering Chaim has consistently lost trades during his tenure with Red Sox and is desperate to save his own job.
