Patriots Cut Adalius Thomas

Linebacker Adalius Thomas was released by the Patriots on Monday, according to an NFL source, ending a three-year tenure that started with promise and concluded with Thomas publicly sparring with the club.

Thomas was the highest-priced free-agent acquisition in team history, signing a five-year, $35 million contract in 2007, but he turned out to be one of the biggest personnel missteps in Bill Belichick's 11-year tenure.

Thomas had issues with his role, expecting to be used as more of a pure pass rusher, while the Patriots were disappointed with Thomas' production and presence in the locker room.

Lock of the Century #1: Patriots release Adalius Thomas.

Lock of the Century #2: Adalius Thomas signs with Jets.

Let’s just be honest here. We all know it’s going to happen. Thomas will sign with the Jets to spite Bill Belichick and the Patriots. It also makes sense because that fat slob Rex Ryan was the defensive coordinator in Baltimore, back when Adalius Thomas was a stud. I’m sure Thomas believes that Ryan will utilize him the way he thinks he should be used. This potential inevitable move fits right in line with the Jets' strategy this offseason of scooping up every big name player they possibly can.

So, to recap: Pats release Thomas. Thomas will sign with the Jets. Thomas will be nasty again. Lock it down.

Dear Patriots, you do know it's the off-season?

The Miami Dolphins have agreed to send a 2010 and 2011 2nd round pick to the Denver Broncos to acquire WR Brandon Marshall. It's the second big move in two days by an AFC East team looking to dethrone the New England Patriots as best team in the AFC East. Yesterday, the New York Jets acquired former Super Bowl MVP, WR Santonio Holmes from the Pittsburgh Steelers for a 2010 5th rounder pick.

Great move by the Miami Dolphins. Although they still lack a deep threat the Dolphins acquired one of the best wide receivers in the NFL. Hands down. Aside from Wes Welker, Marshall is the only active WR to record three straight 100+ reception seasons.

Okay, so yet again New England wakes up to absolute horrible news. After last night's NHL Draft Lottery and the Bruins solidifying their chances at Taylor Hall or Tyler Seguin we wake and get this. Great. Fucking great. Like seriously, what the hell is going on the Foxboro? It seems that every move made in the NFL off-season is a move the New England Patriots should have, but didn't or failed to make.

The Jets and Dolphins have been very active in the off-season acquiring positions of need when the New England Patriots have been sitting there resigning their own players that got them to 10-6 like a bunch of clowns. The AFC East is going to be an absolute bloodbath next year and by the looks of it I think the New England Patriots are going to come out of it bruised, battered, bloody and very very disappointed with the results. Unless the get their act together....and fast.

Just like we said yesterday after the Jets acquired Santonio Holmes, lets hope Bill Belichick and company have something planned for the NFL draft next week because right now they need a lot of help. Not only do they need a WR to replace Wes Welker, a pass rushing LB or defensive end to get to the quarterback, a tough physical running back for the red zone, but corner back now becomes a serious need no matter how you slice it if we're going to be facing Braylon Edwards, Santonio Holmes, and Brandon Marshall 4x a year this year.

Anyone else want to see the Patriots go get Terrell Owens to pair opposite Randy Moss for a year? I mean, it couldn't hurt.

We've now had an off-season where we could have acquired: Anquan Boldin, Brandon Marshall, Santonio Holmes, LaDanian Tomlinson, Antonio Cromartie, Willie Parker, Larry Johnson, and many more talented players, but have settled to resign current players and bring in an overweight, past his prime Alge Crumpler for blocking purposes. Awesome.

So here's a message to Foxboro, In Bill we don't trust anymore. Do something. Show us you care. Make a move. I don't care what it is, but christ DO SOMETHING before it's too late and nothing is available for them to do.

Jets acquire Santonio Holmes; Pats do nothing.

NY POST: The Jets landed former Super Bowl XLIII MVP Santonio Holmes on the cheap last night, acquiring the troubled wideout from the Steelers for the fire-sale price of a fifth-round pick in this month's NFL Draft.

Holmes, who turned 26 in March, is one of the league's most explosive receivers but he also is one of its most controversial and might not be available to the Jets to start the upcoming season.

Okay so here's the deal. I hate the Jets. I despise the Jets. I think they are the most pathetic organization in all of football. I hate their owner. I hate their players. I hate their coach. Everything about them, I hate. Needless to say, it's time to hand it to them. Yes, they take risks on players. Yes they sign guys who are controversial, criminals, and loud mouths. The fact of the matter, however, these guys can flat out play. A fifth round pick for Santonio Holmes? Are you kidding me. What the fuck.

The Jets now have an explosive receiving core that includes: Braylon Edwards, Santonio Holmes, Jerricho Cotchery, Dustin Keller, and Ladanian Tomlinson to throw passes to next year.

The Patriots? They got Randy Moss, Kevin Faulk, and not much more after that, unless you consider David Patten, Julian Edelmen, or half the season of Wes Welker on one leg as explosive.

Like, seriously. What the fuck are the Patriots doing. You can't honestly tell me that they couldn't top that trade offer, especially when you take into consideration the NEED they have at WR. I used to firmly believe in Bill Belichick. I always trusted him with every move, but right now I just don't know. I don't know what he is thinking. It's time to face the facts Bill, we won 10 games last year. Barely.

We were not the New England Patriots of the earlier part of the decade, but I'll tell you one thing. It's time to get back to that point. So as of right now, F2DD is 50/50 on the Patriots this year. Let's hope they kill the draft or all of New England is in for a very, very, very long season.

Rex Ryan has Surgery

March 14 (Bloomberg) -- New York Jets coach Rex Ryan underwent weight-loss surgery yesterday, the New York Daily News reported.

Ryan had a scheduled lap-band procedure at the NYU Medical Center and has returned to his home in New Jersey, the newspaper said today, citing Jets’ spokesman Bruce Speight.

His weight had risen to 340 pounds at the start of last season, the Daily News said. The surgery was to place a gastric band around the upper part of the stomach to make it smaller and hold less food, the newspaper reported.

HAHAHAHAHA! Nothing like having a fat ass, crying, overrated piece of shit in charge of your football operations. At least he knows there was nothing he could do about it and opted for the surgery. Good thing he's getting this surgery because now the newly signed Ladanian Tomlinson and him will be able to sit on the bench and cry while the Patriots and Bill Belichick prove why they are still the team to beat.

7 kids, but only 6 mothers

RADAR ONLINE-- Antonio Cromartie has seven kids by six women in five states, and a partridge in a pear tree. The Jets fronted him some cash to clear up his paternity suits before he reports to camp. Ladies and gentlemen, the NFL!

Where did that $12 million rookie contract go? Possibly for fertility treatments, because there are an awful lot of little Cromarties running around. Those little Cromarties need to be fed and clothed, and that ain't cheap. With a court date coming up this month, and more pending, he needs some money, and he needs it fast.

Those are my kids, and they're my responsibility," Cromartie said during a conference call with beat reporters. "I made some wrong decisions in my first two years (in the NFL), and I have to take on that responsibility."

"We realize that for Antonio to be available, someone of his talent, at his age (25), at his position, there were some circumstances that may have happened," said Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum, adding the organization did a thorough background investigation on Cromartie. "When we made the decision we felt the risk was reasonable given the price we had to pay. We're going to work with Antonio collaboratively to make sure we do everything organizationally to make sure he has the best opportunity to be successful."

Working with him collaboratively apparently means restructuring his $1.7 million contract to give him $500,000 now, as a bonus. Otherwise he wouldn't get paid until the start of the regular season, and who knows what paternity court he'd be in by then?

Too bad Travis Henry's probably retired. An uncapped year is the only time he could get enough to take care of his own baby issues.

You see there was just no way I wasn't going to find this article on Antonio Cromartie. You know why? Because I hate hate hate the fucking Jets. Can't stand them. I hate Rex Ryan. I hate Mark Sanchez. I hated Bill Belichick, until he fucked them. I hate Bill Parcells. I hate Joe Namath. Everything about them I hate.

So whenever I find something like this out, I love it. It's just outstanding.

The Jets traded for Antonio Cromartie, and in turn they took a chance on a player who has 15 career interceptions in his first 3 years. Ten of those picks came his rookie year. So, you can do the math. Yep, 5 over the last 2. So Rex Ryan, obviously thinks he can get Cromartie back to how he was his rookie year. The thing Ryan forgot, Cromartie has 7 kids. Yes, 7 fucking kids.

The best part about this, the Jets traded for him hoping he'd be a stud and in turn had to restructure his contract so he could get $500,000 real quick to get the 6 mothers -- yes I said that 6 mothers and 7 kids. (Who wants to take bets he has a set of twins?) off his back.

So Jet Nation, Rex Ryan I just want to say one thing. Good luck with Cromartie. I'm glad he's on your team and not mine. I'm glad you think him and Revis will allow you to blitz everyone else. We all know that's your pipe dream.

Just ask Travis Henry what happens when you have a great rookie year and decide to bang anything with two legs. Those ladies end up fucking you harder than you fucked them (no pun intended).

If I were Woody Johnson, I'd add a clause to Tubby Ryan's contract, dropping him from the health insurance unless he dropped that lard lump of a creature attached to his abdomen.
