@MikeReiss And I do appreciate how you connect with your many readers Mike. Great job by you. Been following you via the Globe, ESPN, Twitter/X for over 25 years. As all the Patriots magic started! Was a loyal Reis’s Pieces reader back in the day also, pre Twitter. Loved it and miss it!

@MikeReiss What is the point? He won’t even make the team after they draft a TE and pick up a vet cheap like a Jonnu Smith?

For those updating Patriots rosters at home, please note the following changes: 🏈 TE C.J. Dippre is now No. 81, taking Austin Hooper's old number. Dippre, who had donned 81 at Alabama, was No. 82 in his rookie season in New England. 🏈 LS Niko Lalos (1-year deal) is No. 62.

@MikeReiss Thanks Mike. True it’s good to have choices.

Hi UncleMark. He might not make the team. No guarantees there. I like to relay the Malcolm Butler story in these types of conversations. When the Patriots initially signed Butler to the 90-man roster after a tryout in 2014, many could have asked, "What's the point?" Long answer short: Never know how these things will unfold. So might as well be relentless in trying everything possible to build the best team possible.

@Jared_Carrabis No participation trophies this year ??

This is the most medals I’ve ever seen in my life.

@VinnysCorner1 Why shouldn’t companies pay all employees a fair wage? Tipping for a service rendered, to compensate workers who are being underpaid for their efforts, is lunacy. America, why do we support this silly convention? Let’s end this.

When did tipping in America become a guilt trip?? 🤦

@CoachSwit Because there are millions of pathetic dads out there trying to live out their childhood fantasies of being some undiscovered ball player when surely they are not. Sorry but it all starts and ends with silly parents. Instead, Go have a catch, attend a ball game with your kid!

When did youth baseball get so serious? Exit velo. Radar guns. Rankings. Travel teams at 8 years old. What happened to just playing because it’s the greatest game ever invented? Sometimes it feels like we all forget it’s still a kid’s game. ⚾️

@_TyAnderson Can Bruins just let Swayman shoot here?

They should go Khusnutdinov.

@_TyAnderson OT Shoot outs suck, worst thing ever

I back it. Had good breakaway goals in Florida in final game before break.

@AlTheBoss03 Carl Yastrzemski.

Name a player — not named Derek Jeter or Cal Ripken Jr. — that you respect the most for staying loyal to one team for their entire career. In an era of constant movement, those guys are rare. Who’s your pick? 👇⚾ Bonus points if you watched them their whole career.

Age yourself by naming an NHL goalie you grew up watching. I’ll start: Patrick Roy

@Jared_Carrabis Can Sox trade Masa back to Japanese leagues?

If the Red Sox let Masataka Yoshida wear his Team Japan jersey for the whole season, he would break Barry Bonds’ single season home run record by the All Star break.

@Jared_Carrabis Can’t this performance entice some other team interested in Masa as a DH, with Sox eating half his remaining contract?

There’s an alternate universe where Masataka Yoshida has done this 40+ times a year over the last three seasons and there are talks of a Masa statue outside of Fenway.

@nflrums Sorry going to call BS on this.

🚨 The #Patriots reportedly offered a 1st and a 3rd for #Eagles AJ Brown and Philadelphia declined the TRADE

@masslivesports The Bruins will waste this pick on some irrelevant player anyway. Always do.

Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving admitted Friday that Don Sweeney's shrewd negotiating move set the Bruins for a high pick. masslive.com/bruins/2026/03…

@Buster_ESPN Yes. Yes. And please yes.

Masa Yoshida will make $18.6m this year, and next year. On paper, he'd seem to be a good fit for the Astros, with their need for a LH hitter and the smaller LF in their home park. In any deal involving Yoshida would probably have to involve a financial adjustment.

@Savageboston The best trade is when both sides think they lost. That means it was balanced.

Howie Roseman doesn’t like losing trades. The Patriots better be careful.

@NickCRadio Very possible. Need to get Eagles off the first rounder.

I love trying to figure this shit out and hope I'm not insufferable, LOL. But, my mind gets working and when it's an offseason/deadline time, I try to think of every angle. New thought: What if the Pats are leaking how "hot" they are after Pierce, b/c they're trying to get the Eagles to lessen the ask?

@HumansNoContext Like a scene from Jackass.

Physics took a day off

@PatsPlanet_ NFL is best consumed on TV at home. And food and drink much cheaper.

Hot dogs 🌭 will be $20 next. $1 for every ketchup squeeze. I love going to games. But it really is a killer on the pockets.
