And now a moment with Albert Haynesworth. That’s right folks, the asterisk has been taken off. The sleeping giant is about to awaken and tell the Dolphins he’s going to be very, very grumpy.

Rapsheet: Thoughts on Bill Belichick’s A Football Life
I can’t believe I still have to wait a week to see this thing.2009 is really an interesting season for this to happen during, perhaps the only year of the BB reign where the magic was just missing.
Trying to rank my excitement for it, I’d put it over the draft, and probably a regular season game, but definitely below a playoff game. Can’t wait…
The relationship between Tom Brady and Belichick comes through so strong in this film. When Belichick needs someone to lean on on the sidelines, it’s Brady. After the Saints loss, for instance, Belichick walks over to Brady and commiserates, saying, “We have no mental toughness, we can’t play the way we need to play, I just can’t get them to play the way they need to play on a week-to-week basis. It’s so (expletive) frustrating.” And Brady responds with a knowing, “We got our (expletive) kicked.” But it’s like Brady is half-coach. So much trust there.
Here, with Mayo and Vince, you can talk to the guys. It’s not something you couldn’t do in D.C., but here, it’s really like a family in the locker room. Everyone is for you. No matter what happens, if a guy does something or whatever, it doesn’t matter, they’re all behind him. They’re not going to pass judgment or anything like that. It’s all about everybody being for you, everybody having your back.

Patriots vs. Dolphins circa 1975
I was kind of pulling for Patchung! here but oh well. Say what you will about the Patriots drafts but every single captain was drafted by BB. Excited for McCourty and Slater, who has slowly won me over after a couple years of being miscast as a kick returner who subscribed to the “just put my head down and run straight into oncoming defenders” style of returns.
