LOL

I HATE the Patsies so I couldn't be happier that they removed that huge cancer from the RAIDERS. Renteria thought he had it bad in Bahstun, just wait until Pats fans get a good healthy dose of Moss.

He may still have high top-end speed, but he's lost the initial burst to get the seperation. That, and after he gets bored in NE and starts running lazy, sloppy routes and dropping passes they're really gonna love him.

Moss acts up when he's on a bad team. When his teams are good, he seems to be pretty loved, at least by the fans (see his tenure in Minnesota before they got clobbered by the Giants in the NFC champ game).

I think as long as he gets reasonable numbers of looks and the Pats are winning games, he won't be an issue.

He got great results from Corey Dillion.

The odds of a 4th round pick turning into a high quality starter are about the same as Moss getting a clue.

Not a bad move by New England.

The Patriots traded Deion Branch for a 1st round pick, then get Randy Moss for a 4th round pick, oh and they are paying him less than they would have had to pay Branch.

There is a reason the Patriots are always a contender. I wish the Rams were this smart.

Moss' rookie year with Minnesota, they were 15-1. Since then, the combined records for his teams has been 55-73. And, for the most part, these were all teams that were expected to do anywhere from great to pretty good.

If he wants any chance of fitting in in NE he better go up there and keep his mouth shut. I don't think he can do it.

I don't think the Rams have ever been put in a position like that. If they had a better coach in 2001 they could have used those three first round picks to make them unstoppable.

I thought getting a No. 1 pick for Branch was tremendous. Getting Randy Moss? No. Just say no to Randy Moss.
