Maine isn't exactly talent central for beauty competition. I'm pretty sure that a few years back the fourth runner up was a moose.

And someone in the crowd this year was heard screaming to the stage "hey, nice tooth!".

That whole Hartford stadium thing still has some of you twisted up, huh?

I wouldn't consider myself twisted up, but I will forever hate Ol' Rub & Tug for it. Not because I'm a Patriot fan, though I did root for them a bit, but because they would have been co-tenants with UConn and that's where my loyalty lies. He screwed with my alma mater, and that's unforgivable for me.

I find it hard to believe that anybody really thought the Patriots were moving to Hartford.

A lot of entities have made a lot of money off of UConn Athletics in what can only be described as abusive relationships. So it's not just "that whole Hartford thing."

No, because if it was up to Kraft the Pats would be in Hartford. The state didn't hit their marks and he had to pull out. Any decent person has Kraft pegged as a bum.

Well believe it. I was one of those who thought they were coming and put my name on the season ticket waiting list. I was at the Civic Center when Tebucky Jones and others were doing the dog and pony show. I remember watching MNF when they showed what the stadium would look like on the CT River. It seemed believable without knowing too much about the whole situation. I am not twisted but I am no longer a Patriot fan either.

The NFL never would have allowed the loss of the Boston TV market. Kraft was purely using Hartford for leverage.

Mate, that really sucks. When the Pats made the announcement they would move to CT, I put in for season tix with my brother (not that we're primary Pats fans, but we both support the AFC, so it was an easy call). When the jig was up and the rug was pulled out from CT (in hindsight, this was just to prepare us for UConn getting screwed for football CR), I quickly asked for my deposit back (edit: at least I think I did; I don't remember how much we were asked for to sign up for the tix). I wonder why you didn't get yours.

I don't recall when they were issuing refunds, but I'd moved from Norwalk to Quincy in '99, so maybe that was the reason.

It was only $100 ($25 per seat to get on waiting list) so not backbreaking. I was planning on only going to the Jets game annually and selling the other games, hopefully for a gain.

I got mine! I knew a guy who stayed on the list and he has season tickets now.

I received my refund shortly after I requested removal from the wait list once the deal blew up. A co-worker stayed on the list and did receive season tickets after a few years. Four of us attended a playoff game and watched the Patriots beat Jacksonville in January of 2008. His seats were about a row from the top of Gillette. Very cold for that game. He now lives in FL so not sure what became of those tickets. BTW, their sausage and pepper grinders were quite tasty.

I hope my dementia begins with a hot 24yo.

If you start experiencing dementia, your next lady friend could be a hot 24 yo, as far as you know. That's a win-win.

UNC has banned her from the FB facility.

Does he even make it to the season?

Whether at the practice field or Coach's BBQ, who are the players going to be focused on: the elderly Coach B or his hot wife who's their age! That's a lose-lose.

Make sure you have tons of money, as I doubt there are many 24 year olds purely attracted to the dementia...
 
I mean let's all be real. She's social climbing and she doesn't know all the ins and outs of the world though I dont doubt she's highly socially capable/charismatic

She's going to cause more problems, just a matter of when

I agree. I understand her motivation. But, this taints BB's reputation as a serious person.

Hey...he can go have his fun...but his legacy is taking a serious blow. And if it goes as poorly as you predict, it will only get worse.

As a Jets fan...I am somewhat enjoying that patriot fans have to deal with the fact that their legandary coach is now a clown. Then again....that clown...owned th Jets..lol.

I just want to know where she falls on this plot:
Hot vs Crazy.jpg

It will be glorious when the implosion does occur, and it couldn't occur to a nicer team/conference.
