They don’t know squat about baseball either Greg.

I think Buckley is guilty of always looking for the Red Sox angle as well, as he did this morning when forcing a comparison of Wes Welker to Dustin Pedroia. These guys don’t look for Patriots comparisons when they write about the Red Sox, or at least rarely do, but they don’t know squat about football so they fall-back on baseball.

The spawns (ewwwwww) also included two Super Bowl winning coaches – Holmgren (THAT should have never happened) and Seifert.

Were all those coaches legitimate spawns? I think Bill could have used a life plan.

one of Reiss’ Pieces

“One area I will be anxious to see moving forward is how much the Patriots put their 3-wide package on the field and decide to hand off to Maroney, because I feel that puts one of the team’s top playmakers, Maroney, in the best position to make an impact.”

This is going to be a fun year.

Walsh was amazing, no doubt about it. Perhaps most amazing, though, as I heard on “Countdown with Keith Olbermann” last night is that Walsh essentially spawned no fewer than 16 NFL coaches, directly or indirectly through former assistants who became coaches. To paraphrase Run-DMC, sucker emcees should call him sire.

Wait a minute……Bill Walsh coached football? I thought he was a past-President of Red Sox Nation or something. I’ve got to start reading these things more closely.

What do you bet that Peter King mentions Nick’s touching tribute next Monday, just before he accuses David Ortiz of using steroids?

Jerome Solomon, forgettable in the exact same way of a kid added and just as quickly dropped from a sitcom. He’s the Six Bundy of the Globe.

I think Nick approached his Pats beat job much the same way Shaughnessy does his columnist gig. “What’s the Red Sox angle?” is the first question asked and then everything just sort of flows from there. Let’s take a legendary innovator who did much to shape the way modern football is played and pay tribute to him by posthumously asking what he’d think of the baseball trading deadline. Thank God Walsh had the decency to croak on a Sox off day.

We need to always remember how good we have it now. We had Cafardo, Borges and Jerome Solomon on the Globe beat and Kevin Mannix at the Herald. Now we’ve got young guys who clearly enjoy what they’re doing and seem to have a friendly competition among each other.
