From Darkness to Dynasty - Pats first to 500

[NEPatsfan]

On Sunday the Patriots will attempt to become the first AFL team to reach 500 wins out of the original 8.

If you enjoy sports history I recommend the following book, which I am halfway through.

Put your haterism aside and enjoy a great read and historical tale of one of the founding AFL teams.

It's been a good read so far. I'm a throwback Pats fan, as I suspect you are as well.

I'm not actually halfway, I'm up to about 1970, and what a fd up beginning they had. I didn't come into the Pats fan picture till mid 70's.

Relevant history, sure

Relevant history, sure

The AFL isn't relevant?

Another milestone this weekend should the Pats win.

Thomas Edward Patrick Brady Jr. will become the leader of most wins surpassing Peyton Manning.

Honestly, I love those kinda books. I don't actually know that much about the old AFL...might see if I can find this at the local Liberry.

Oh wait, I'm there right now! BRB...

...Man, this branch SUCKS! The only sports books they had were ghey ones like bicycling, rock climbing, and ones about the old Yankees from the 20's and 50's.

The chick behind the desk said that they also did have a title on "Jazzercise" but it was checked out by some goomba from Staten Island with an unpronounceable Italian name

These past 15 years really changed things. Pats racking up the wins and the raiders losing a ton of ground. And I did not realize how crappy the bengals have been.

If you enjoy football history, I recommend giving it a read.

And just think if Art Modell hadn't moved the Browns to Baltimore, firing BB, and BB wanting to blaze his own path and not taking the Jets job....History won't have happen!
