A Patriotic Goodbye

The Patriots are known for their gutsy calls, both in and out of the locker room. As of late, they signed an aging Fred Taylor, cut Adalius Thomas and still owed him 40 million, signed Junior Seau like 5 separate times, and many, many more strange things.
The most recent news out of Foxboro has to do with a fan favorite- Randy Ma'
Randy Moss has done both what he was expected to do (go off' on d-backs for unbelievable numbers and highlight reel catches) and also didn't do what he was expected to do (complain to media, fight with teammates, not finish routes).
So today he packed his bags and headed back to good ol' Minnesota. The Patriots traded him this morning to the Vikings for a 3rd round pick. Makes sense for the Vikings- they desperately needed a downfield target for Old Man River to hit, they needed to offer excitement for their fans, and cmon, he lit up the scoreboard for the Vikes for 8 years.

So, I guess we will just have to see how this one pans out. As a Jets fan, this is a win-win. Get him out of the AFC East and get some of the media focus out of NYC. Until next time, remember, "Straaaight Cash, Homie"
