So, I'm sorta new to this being up before 3 pm thing, and as I was getting ready to post today's SOD on my IG story, I was like, man, WTF am I gonna do today? I already caught a Madden W and have a chiro appointment at 4:30; you gotta get some Barstool caliber blogs out (but about what?!), then bam, I see this!
I actually have a free pass to the Pats HOF on my dresser as we speak. There are more ways to make content than simply the written word (even though that's my favorite). Your boi's gonna rinse off and go say what up to THE Greatest Ringless Patriot of the Belichick era. IMO, Logan Mankins is a Hall of Famer. The fact that he wasn't on the 2014 Patriots is so fucking bittersweet, and idk if I'll have the balls to say that IRL, but I'll sure be thinking it. Fuck this is dope. I'm jazzed up. He'll be the second former Patriot lineman I've spoken to before. On the 4th of July 2009 (summer going into my senior year of HS), I worked at Narragansett Town Beach, and Dan Koppen came with his family. I was working the entrance he came in at with a buddy who also happened to be in my advisory, and I was like, damn that's Dan Koppen. I wasn't positive even though he was literally wearing a Pro Bowl tank top (2007 was his lone appearance), but I worked up the courage to leave my post, walk onto the beach, and ask him if he was Dan Koppen. He said he was, and I said I didn't wanna bother him and his family just wanted to s/o him out, mention how I'm a lineman too and wish him good luck for the upcoming season. I gotta hurry so I can see my guy, get this autograph, and pay my respects to a legend. The man played a whole year with a torn ACL. I'll have to tell Logan about that Koppen encounter when we chill, and obvi I'll find a way to pepper this in.
