Vive la fucking France indeed!​ 

Wee-wee.

I'm am all in on this signing. A big ole Cajun Frenchmen with an awesome name is exactly what this team needs. Ricky Jean-Francois is just a fun-ass name to say, even though I'm probably pronouncing it wrong when I say it. Something as simple as that might just be exactly what this team needs down the stretch. Football is a very serious game, but you gotta be able to have a little fun. You say that name and just smile, it's fun.  I don't need to keep making the same point fifteen different ways.

Plus, New England may be the perfect fit for Ricky Jean-Francois since he owns like 30 Dunkin Donuts. 

This is not exactly some flashy addition that is going to make a huge difference on the field, it's a depth signing. Ricky Jean-Francois has played for four teams over his 8 year NFL career amassing a whopping 12 sacks over that time. Nobody is ever going to confuse Ricky Jean-Francois for Vince Wilfork in the run stopping game.  But I'm all in on this name.

Vive La France!
