Next he will complain about the quality of the hotels in Buffalo.

Who could blame him though?

Speaking of dildos on the field at a home Patriots game---

 

I was just wondering the other day if one of these babies is going to see some action on Monday night.

 

I think that would be awesome.  Only address it to Jones, or BB, or whoever else.

 

Keep the tradition alive!

I was the biggest Patriots ever ever, then I realized "It was all Brady" 

 

I don't LIKE NE but it's kind of fun to have them be good but hopefully just not quite good enough, in a turning the tables kind of way.

 

But when they win other non-Bills games they're just another team to me now, which is admittedly weird. 

 

I do get physically ill watching Tampa Bay highlights on RedZone, let alone them winning.

Mac has been spectacular w/ time in the pocket.

 

No one mentions his line too much. It's one of the best in the league now.  When he's pressured, he looks like an entirely different QB.  

 

Of course, you can say that about any QB.  But I'd say it's significant w/ him.  He just doesn't move in the pocket well, and he's not elusive. Barring improvements in that area, he'll generally need stellar protection to play this well.

I mean, him doing this, Pats fans hyping him to the moon, the media anointing him the best from the draft - this is all going to make a hilarious 30 for 30 years down the line.

 

"What if I told you that a rookie QB tried to step into the shoes of the greatest of all time...."

The media being so late to the patriots party and then overrating them wildly is incredible to me. Like they were clearly going to be good this season as long as mac was decent and he’s playing well. They had some holdouts on the defensive side last year and still had a good defense. The analysts are all talking like there’s no way this was even possible lol

I’m realistic enough to know it doesn’t effect the team, but it’s just bad karma. Every time this board had a week of calling other teams and players garbage, it seems like we’ve lost. I’m going to keep quiet until Monday. 

Does Karma work both ways because their message board is worse 

 

not that you can tell the difference between the two this week

No doubt Mac is good, IMO. He passes the eye test to me. When Jones throws the ball is looks clean. even if he doesn't have top end arm strength. 

 

Tua looks awkward throwing the ball to me, and I'm totally unimpressed with his career so far. Maybe he gets better, but I doubt it. Heck, who am I, but his own team doubts it too from all appearances. They seem to have given up on him after like 5 games. 

 

Errrrrr.....the Dolphins have won their last 4 games, including the Ravens.

 

Tua was "out" from early in Game 2, to Game 6.  The Dolphins lost a close game to the Jags (3 points), a close game to the Falcons (2 points), ran into a buzz saw at Orchard Park, then haven't lost since.

 

Fun Fact: that win over the Ravens would be the reason I currently have a Flying Pig as my avatar.  I said that the Dolphins could beat the Ravens, when Pigs Fly.

So....

I’m too lazy to go back far enough but if someone compared tua to Mac in that they are solid qbs that are accurate and can limit turnovers im on board 😂 this whole pats getting hyped up thing all feels eerily similar to last years dolphins team to me and I could see the same thing happening to them down the stretch

I know they're playing him now because what else are they going to do....

 

But do they really believe in him? Has he really been all that impressive? 

 

I hope they DO buy into Tua and keep him long-term. That's good for the Bills!

I wonder 🤔 

 

Did he look up what happens to NFL players who trademark their junk?

 

 

I hear the odds are good that something bad will happen to Mac N Cheesy Jones 

Tebow?  Not good

 

Hail Murray.  The season went downhill 

 

Agreed, and I still think the argument clincher against such promotion would be the Peterman hype video.  If that wasn't the heavens kicking the stepladder of karma out from underneath him, I don't know what was. 😁

This is why what Mac is doing makes a ton of sense. TB12, RG3, JA17. It has been common the last decade or so (+/-) for QB's to go by an initial and number moniker. If they become super stars, it helps them market their brand. At worst it costs a millionaire like $500 to $2000 dollars and they never need it.

It is almost irresponsible not to trademark it at this point. 

 

What a nothing-burger.

No need for good rationalizations around here lol... With that being said, it just seems like its too early but I definitely get your point.

There is no too early once you are drafted to TM your own name. You can only be too late. If a Pats fan wanted to do it from Cambridge a week earlier he would be toast.

Your understanding of TM law is a bit off.

 

An important aspect of TM law in the USA is that marks may not be registered and then "placed a shelf" for the future, but not actually used in interstate commerce.

 

Jones will have to market and sell some sort of goods (or services--he's already doing that as a football player of sorts, making public appearances, etc.) in connection with the mark MJ10, or eventually his registration will be cancelled.

 

You don't "trademark" something as some sort of routine paperwork filing and then forget about it.

 

A trademark is an indicator of the source of goods or services you actually offer and are engaged in selling in interstate commerce in the USA.

 

PS:  Had Jones been late to the party there are all kinds of ways he could have rectified the situation.

 

I'm not sure why the average American these days seems obsessed with trademarks, while understanding almost nothing about them.

Mac-10 is so much cooler than MJ10.  I guess that would be frowned upon by the NFL though.

 

Mac-10 would be sort of fitting too.  Small and only accurate at short distances.  Has a cult following by  those that just want to look cool and aren't concerned about longevity or quality.

Someone would protest that it encourages gun violence probably lol

Right, OK. You’re being unnecessarily pedantic. I didn’t say he wouldn’t put it on a T-Shirt. He doesn’t even have to. He can just license it out and have somebody do it for him and he’s fulfilled the need. Start the Mac Jones foundation, put it on a quarter zip, and he’s fine. Just like half of the QB’s in the league. 
 

Why chase down a resolution later on for a problem that doesn’t need to exist?

Mac-10 is probably taken.

 

I heard its the name of a gun.

 

Bulldog had a hilarious rant on WGR today about the hole mj10 ten thing. Basically says he hasnt earned it and that mj is Michael Jordan and hopes we destroy him and the patriots. All of which i agree with but the rant was epic, lol.
