The Pirates are coming off of a tough a 36-33 loss to the Green Bay Blizzard last week. It has been a tough stretch for Massachusetts as they dropped four of their last five games. Today they take on a San Antonio team that has been good of late, winning three of their last four games. With little more than a month left in the season, the Pirates are entering…
Linemen shine at BONE
SPRINGFIELD — On Friday at the BONE camp at Springfield College, some of the best takes were the 1-on-1 battles between linemen. With some of the best talent in the Northeast on display, you saw some real competition. The way the 1-on-1s were structured, the offensive linemen had a slight advantage. The defenders were not able to go until the first movement on the offensive line. Still, some of the……
Patriots put on an unbelievable show in honoring Tom Brady
FOXBOROUGH- Tom Brady was inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame on Wednesday night. It was an amazing ceremony befitting of the greatest player of all-time, the greatest quarterback of all-time and the greatest Patriot of all-time. NBC’s Mike Tirico emceed the event and he did a good job of hosting the three hour event. The induction reminded me of a Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony but with…

Observations from the final Patriots mandatory minicamp practice
We’re on to the summer time, ladies and gentlemen. The Patriots officially wrapped up the spring with the final mandatory minicamp practice on Wednesday morning and as usual, it’s tough to put too much stock into a lot of things we’re seeing so far, but there were a few things that stood out in the just-about two hour session. For the final time until late July, here’s everything I saw…
High School Yearbook: 2003
Note: We wanted to create a new feature that honored the history of the high school game a little. This is a snapshot of MIAA play in 2003, and while a lot of that info is hard to access, we still remember a good amount of it. So here’s an attempt to capture those old glories. If you have any additional information from other years, it is welcome. Here is……

Observations from Day 1 of Patriots mandatory minicamp
The third ‘first’ of Jerod Mayo’s coaching career took place on an absolutely beautiful day in Foxborough on Monday. The first mandatory minicamp practice of the Mayo era lasted two hours and while it wasn’t pretty at times – especially for the offense – there was still some good stuff to take away from the non-padded session. As usual, here’s everything I saw from high on top of the hill……
Renegades continue to sputter with a second loss
Image courtesy of Boston Renegades This is certainly a new day for the Renegades franchise. After five years of dominating the Women’s Football Alliance, it seems that the rest of the league finally realizes this simply isn’t the same old Boston team. After seeing a 42-game win streak snapped against St. Louis, Boston used a bye week to reassess and thoroughly embarrassed its next opponent (New York) by scoring 90…
