    The future is so bright...it's the 2023 Pats Draft Contest!

    @Mugsy's Jock called, @SMU_Sox and I are answering - back for another year, it's the draft contest! We'll stick to last year''s basic structure: 1 point for each correctly-predicted draft pick or UDFA signed within 72 hours of the Mr. Irrelvant pick. I'll sweeten the annual $50 to the Jimmy...

    Jam Kazam (media) PC

    Does anyone here have experience with Jam Kazam? It's a finicky app that enables physically-dispersed musicians to jam together. Internet latency, I/O, and an external mic are necessary, and memory is important; everything else is pretty optional, as the app doesn't need a lot of storage or...

    The All-New 2022 Pats Draft Contest!

    Youngblood

    ESPN - which is rapidly rising in my personal antipathy list as "having no clue what is happening in NE" - released a ranked list of teams based on U-25 talent. If you want to skip the click-through, the Pats rank 30th. Mac Jones and Michael Owenwu as "blue chippers." Damien Harris, Jacobi...

    New & Improved: The 2021 Pats Draft Contest!

    Hey, draftniks – it’s that time again! And this time, @SMU_Sox has helped define a better-than-before draft contest approach, one that plays out in two parts. As in past years, you get to pick 20 players for the Pats. Please submit these as last name, first name, position, school. There aren’t...

    Draft contest!!!

    Hey folks - sorry, I'm very late with this. Whadda mean, it's Thursday! Thanks to SMU Sox for waking me from my SIP slumber... For anyone who wants to play, scoring is just like previous years: three points for each player selected by the Pats in the first three rounds - 4 for round 4, 5 for...

    2019 BB: Always in Playoff Form

    New year, new thread for BB! I loved today's press conference (and actually, I love that transcripts are a feature of patriots.com). Check out the sequence of five questions on Casserio about 1/3 of the way down (and who asks this crap, anyway?). As a bonus, he's asked: Q: What are your...

    New and Improved: The 2019 Draft Contest!

    Hey folks! We're approaching another draft, and that means...time to try our annual 'think along with Bill' game! This year's contest is (as per the title) both new and improved. On the 'new' side, please join me in welcoming SMU_Sox as co-host of the contest! And with SMU's $100 comes a new...

    Asked and...

    Has 'Ask PFW' been banished from patriots.com? It's supposed to be weekly, but I don't see anything after Feb 26. And that was a Scalavino "piece" - that's would be an unfortunate end for a good Pats column.

    ESPN Boston gone?

    My default for ESPN is www.espn.com/boston - but today, the link doesn't resolve, even though espn.com is fine. Does anyone know if they killed /boston?

    The All New 2018 Pats Draft Contest!

    Nine days until the draft, and...I'm feeling a need to demonstrate that I'm out of my depth when I try to 'think along with Bill.' Anyone else feel like prognosticating? Unlike last year, when the Pats had no 1 or 2, they now (at least as of today) have 2 1s, 2 2s, and a bunch of other picks -...

    Question on win probability

    This may not be the right place for this question, but I can't think of where else to ask it. In Sunday's Gray Cup game, Calgary led Toronto by 8 (24-16) with 5 minutes left, and were driving for another touchdown to clinch the game. Calgary completes a pass, but the receiver fumbles on the 1...

    The East is wide open!

    This is a running joke on SoSH. And yet, here's what the standings look like as of now: Bills 3-1 Pats 2-2 Jets 2-2 Fins 1-2 (note - I'd paste a table from NFL.com but I don't know how tables work any more. Please let me know how to find the new Tableizer!) History suggests that the Pats will...

    The New New 2017 Draft Contest!

    By popular demand (okay, I only got one email on it, but Pappymojo is popular, right?), it's back! Unlike last year, when the Pats had no 1, they now (at least as of today) have no 1 or 2. What does this mean? a) I'm highly unlikely to guess any of the draft picks correctly, and b) someone else...

    Living on the Fringe: Pats Practice Squad

    I didn't see anything about the practice squad, and new threads are good, so... Withthe signing of Vinny Sunseri and Mike Hilton (ex-Jacksonville), the Pats have a full practice squad roster. As of now, here is the full complement of 10: http://www.patriots.com/team/roster
