Contrary to popular belief lack of a criminal history doesn't make someone " a good guy". Criminal History just means someone was just too stupid to get away with what they did. |

Merriam-webster: Definition of THUG : a brutal ruffian or assassin Sorry, I do not buy slang.. Or loose miss-interpretations. In any account, that sort adds nothing to a team based on that premiss. |

The NFL is not filled with high character guys, its filled with actors and rehearsed answers.

Re: Patriots have lost their 'Way'
That violent mentality translates very well onto a football field. Remember our Super Bowl run? Forget about the bounties? Just because they aren't out there with their gang flags and a pistol doesn't mean the mentality isnt the same.
