Aside from the buzz that the start of every NFL season comes with, Massachusetts has been in the news for another reason – sports betting.  While the fanbase of the Patriots spreads far beyond the state lines, it’s hard to deny that a significant portion of the New England support comes from MA, so what’s been going on with sports betting, and how does this impact the Patriots?

The 28-3 tee and me

On the five year anniversary, a little retrospective on the 28-3 tee by @MikeDussault19

28-3 has become a part of Patriots lore and it’s hard to believe that a big part of it was started right here on this blog and now, here we are, five years later so it’s time for a little retrospective. Of course, the real Patriots did the hard work, coming back from a seemingly impossible deficit to secure their fifth title but it took a bit before it truly sunk in what the team had…

Top Pundit Claims New England are 'Legit' Super Bowl Contenders, But Are They?

Top Pundit Claims New England are ‘Legit’ Super Bowl Contenders, But Are They?

Controversial sports mouthpiece Stephen A. Smith is clearly well-known for voicing outrageous opinions in search of column inches and attention. Usually, he does so with the ambition of rocking the boat and angering individual players or coaches, but on this occasion, his latest claim is less bombastic than normal. Smith believes that the New England Patriots, who are in red-hot form of late,…

Patriots Lose Running Back James White to Injury

Patriots Lose Running Back James White to Injury

The New England Patriots dropped to 1-2 in the season after a 28-13 loss at home to the New Orleans Saints. The lost might have been more costly to the team than a single loss in the standings after running back James White needed to be carted off the field with an injury. Just a little over a quarter into the game, White took a handoff and darted around the left end for a six-yard gain before…

The Dolphins increased the tempo to add extra heat in New England

(AP Photo/Matt Rourke) As I accidentally take a sip of my now cold coffee (okay ew!), I mull over how I feel as a Patriots fan about the first regular season game being a loss. In my preseason wrap-ups I urged you to not look at the numbers, meaning mostly the scores, and as cliché as it may sound, I would urge you still not to. Instead, maybe look at this big picture as a whole. For starters,…

Succession Planning: Who takes over as coach after Bill Belichick?

Succession Planning: Who takes over as coach after Bill Belichick? @nfpowers

Not only does he hold an incredible career as a head coach, but he also doubles as a Hall of Fame caliber General Manager. Some things only live as dreams and with Bill Belichick now being 69 years young he is at…
