From time to time this off-season we’ll bring you some blog posts from years gone by. Either articles that were timeless or make me look really smart or (probably more often) really dumb.
Today we bring you a post from February 18, 2009 from our very first blog. This was after just surviving the Brady-less 2008 season and we were still trying to gain perspective on the season. But one thing that bothered me then, and still bothers me today, is every time I see an NFL highlight with the Gene Upshaw “GU” patches. Instantly you know what day that game took place, the opening Sunday of 2008. The day that will live in infamy for Pats fans.
