12/04/08 - Steve Thursday
Fred opened the show with an announcement that, along with the usual Qdoba question of the week, they would be giving away two tickets to a 3D showing of tonight’s NFL game between the Chargers and Raiders at Cinema Deluxe in Patriots Place (presented by Raytheon). The guys talked briefly about the locker room activity, including a sighting of Lawrence Maroney, before Andy talked about an appearance on a Seattle radio he made. Fred gave his review of No Country for (the) Old Men which he thought was “tremendous” before Paul mentioned that Andy tried to talk to Randy Moss in the locker room to no avail.
John in LA called in to accuse Fred of saying Plaxico Burress deserved what happened to him, in yesterday’s show, was meant intentionally because he scored the winning touchdown at the Superbowl. Fred adamantly denied this before John was blown up for using innapropriate language that Fred repeated shortly after. Chris with a tian called in with the fantastic news that his father’s biopsy came back negative (give him the all the best from PFWinProgress.com) and to talk about the Patriots injuries and the shortcomings of the squad’s depth being a major factor this season.
Andy came up with a question to win the tickets for the NFL game in 3D which was ‘Who are the Oakland Raiders starting wide receivers?’. John in Seattle called in, not to answer the question but, to offer the guys something to do Saturday in Seattle. Arty in New Hampshire called in to try and win the tickets but only got one of the two answers correct before Steve in Seattle, called in to let Patriots fans know where there would be a a huge Patriots tailgate before the game in Seattle. If you are interested it would be Saturday night at the Owl & Thistle and prior to the game on Sunday will be at the Showbox SoDo. If you do go to any of these events, email me the pictures and I’ll post them to this site. Arty emailed in the correct answer and won the NFL 3D Premiere tickets, congratulations Arty, let us know how it was on the forums.
Anthony in Naples called in to have a go at Andy about his comments concerning Cassel inheriting the greatest offence ever which led to a lengthy discussion about the pressure on Cassel now as opposed to the pressure Brady faced in 01. Erik joined the show before Steve in Oregon called in to try and hook up with the guys in Seatlle before Steve from the Cape correctly answered the Qdoba question of the day which was ‘How many children does Steven from Oregon have?’
Following today’s Urban Dictionary Word of the Day Joel in Merrimack called in to ask about Rosevelt Colvin and how he has looked in practise and about how thin the Patriots linebacking core is. With 30 minutes of the show left Fred rushed to get to the picks, which can be found here.
