Boston Herald - This is supposed to be hush-hush and on the deep down-low, but you know us. It’s time to pop the bubbly because Kevin Youkilis and Tom Brady’s sis, Julie, are engaged!
How cool is that? Pats and Sox super family. Can they get married on the Boston Common so that all Boston sports fans can attend / launch a parade afterwards? Someone call Menino. Cue the duckboats. This is an occasion to celebrate!
via BornIntoIt - Boston is still better than New York. They gained a little bit of ground on Sunday night, but everybody knows Boston is still in the lead. Go Bruins, Sox and Celtics. ..
4 years of waiting. 4 years of plotting our revenge. 4 years of the Hoodie scheming. 4 years of pain. It all comes down to this – Super Bowl XLVI. In a year when the most wonderful owner in sports, Robert Kraft, saved the NFL – he lost his wife. This season is dedicated to her and win or lose the team has certainly made her proud. In a few hours we will see if the Patriots can bring home the ultimate prize and complete the season we all know the Kraft family deserves. Let’s Go Pats!
“He did some things, he didn’t do everything,’’ coach Bill Belichick said dryly when a reporter inquired about Rob Gronkowski’s participation in Thursday’s practice. While his participation was limited, the fact that Gronk was on the field has electrified Patriot Nation. Perhaps the best player on the team behind Quarterback Tom Brady, the record setting Tight End is a match up nightmare for the Giants and could be the deciding factor in Sunday’s Super Bowl. Pats fans will be anxiously looking to hear how much Gronkowski can do on Friday, but anyone who’s followed this Patriots team for the past decade knows they won’t get much news from Belichick. The Patriots will keep Gronk’s status as hush-hush as possible leading up to Super Bowl XLVI, however New England fans can smile a little bit knowing that at the very least Gronk should be able to take some snaps with the offense on Super Bowl Sunday.
SportsHub- “he wouldn’t say much about his injury, other than that he’s feeling better and is taking it day by day.’I’m not really worried about if I’m not playing or not yet. That’s on Sunday,’ Gronkowski, who was no longer wearing his protective boot, told the reporters crowding his podium at media day. ’The only thing I’m worried about is Tuesday. Just keep on moving forward, going in a positive direction, and that’s all that counts.’ Gronkowski did say he’s feeling “good,” but admitted to some nagging pain.’[The game is] six days away,’ Gronkowski said. ‘I could be 100 percent by then. I could be 2 percent by then. We’re just taking it day by day. ‘ ’I’m young. I’m healthy, and I feel blessed like that. Whatever it is, I hope I’m a quick healer.’”
Gronkowski is being very Belichickian in his word choice here. Not revealing much. The Giants must be very confused over there so hopefully this messes up their game plan. Let’s hope Gronk can heal up for the rematch, but even without him the Pats have enough weapons to carve up the Giants secondary. Even if Gronk gets in for a couple snaps and draws a double team he can free up Welker and Hernandez to do their thing. As long as Tom Brady is on the field I think the Patriots can defeat any defense.
Get well soon, Gronk! We’d love to see you out there but if not we can still bring home that 4th Lombardi!
Tuesday is Media Day in Indianapolis and the biggest question surrounding the Pats is of course the health of TE Rob Gronkowski. Gronk is scheduled to speak at the festivities (which begin at 10 am ET) so perhaps we will learn more about his status. “Roberto” has missed all 3 Patriots practices since the AFC Championship game, so New England fans are chomping at the bit to see if he will be ready to face the Giants in Super Bowl XLVI. We’re not doctors, but the Chowdaheadz feel like Gronk will be ready to go for the big game. He is simply too much of a beast to let an ankle sprain keep him out of the Super Bowl. So everyone just keep calm and Gronk on…hopefully we will get some reassurance when Gronkowski takes the podium this morning.
Bill Belichick seems awfully confident, even chipper during his press conference in Indianapolis on Sunday. He even cracked a joke about his infamous 4th and 2 call against Peyton manning and the Colts in 2009
“I’ve never had too much hospitality here until I went for it on fourth-and-2…Since then I’ve been greeted in a lot more friendly manner than I was in the past.”
If the Hoodie is in this good of a mood, I’m completely ecstatic. The least emotional man in the world seems to be as excited as a school boy for the Super Bowl showdown. We are less than one week away from the biggest game in Pats history. It’s time to get hyped!
