I’m all about myself, my people, and our needs.
Which is why this whole sequence is filling my dark, damaged heart with joy.
Others must also fail."
Their successes 17 and 13 years ago still haunt my every waking moment.
But I loathed them with the white hot intensity of a thousand fryolaters long before then.
Since for as long as I can remember.
And I perfected that sentiment long before they crushed my 19-0 dreams.
So this is what I need right now.
But also seeing why they wanted Drake Maye.
And Maye grasped it all like a veteran.
No wonder they tried to move heaven and earth in an effort to land him.
To spare no expense.
But the Patriots weren’t selling.
And for that, I’m grateful.
Because we’ve spent too long in this time of doubt.
When optimism hasn’t been rewarded.
Where the promise of so many prospects has ended up being fool’s gold.
And it’s hard to trust again.
Thankfully we’ve all got this to make us feel even better about Drake Maye’s future.
One, you know you just helped yourself.
Two, you know you hurt him.
It’s a win/win.
