How did the Patriots security thing magigy go?

 

 

It was an unreal experience. I was in attendance of all training camp practices and pre-season games. Hung out with some of the players in the tunnels every day and made friends with Hightower, Gronk, and Chandler Jones. Got a 'good morning' from Brady and Coach B as they made their way out onto the practice field each day. Was backstage at all concerts and met Bon Jovi and his band, Taylor Swift and her parents, and Kenny Chesney. During American Idol try-outs at the stadium, I was tasked with being Ryan Seacrest's personal escort along with his entourage. The Krafts had Seacrest and I up to the trophy room which was pretty amazing aside from seeing the actual Lombardi Trophy they beat us out for. When the bomb squad would show up prior to events I would sweep the stadium with them and met a bunch of the NFL officials and went into the Bucs locker room prior to their pre-season game to sweep all the lockers and made it up to Kraft's box and throughout the coaches offices. 

 

My boss with the Patriots reached out to a upper level management employee with the Chargers and I did similar things with their organization this past season. I shadowed NFL Security Division Employees and was on the field pre-game with him just learning the ropes of the business. Each Sunday I would help to escort the visiting teams and referees to their respective locker rooms and by kickoff I was sitting in my bosses box just watching him do his job. 

 

Because of those experiences I am really trying to get into that industry but it is ultra-competiive but I have some great contacts that are looking out for me so we shall see what happens.

Don't forget my idea about bracelets at security kiosks on the perimeter of a stadium. pay me in tacos and newcastles.

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      By CRA · Posted

      99% of my complaints generally are front office complaints.  It may not appear that way always but that's where I have been for some time.   It's also why I constantly talk about random parts the last several years....  to this day, if they were going to draft Bryce Young....I thought they needed to do specific things.   They have literally done the opposite.   In a certain world, I would LOVE an AT.  A Bryce Young.  An XL.  All sorts of people.  How they have chosen to put it all together here? Meh.  I still think if Bryce Young is your QB....the easiest and obvious play for a team....would be a dynamic slot WR, a rec RB, and solid rec TE.  Spread it out.  Let him be the point guard.  I still think this team is being built for a different type QB....one that a Jake Delhomme style QB would thrive more in.  Which is in fact the heart of what Canales has been around and done.  So I nitpick it all.  If I had thought Bryce Young was going to rebound....I would have NEVER been all in on XL like I was.  I was all in XL because I thought the BY experiment was about to over quick.  Ladd would have made way more sense if you believed in BY IMO.   I don't think this team did.  I think Dave drafted XL because they were mentally ready to move on and did after 2 weeks.  and I thought the Frank think was bologna from the jump.  I just have hate the pairings and plan every since Rhule year 1.   Rhule year 1 was the last time I really thought this team was in a good place to give it a go.  It went horribly.  But....the zoomed out plan was pretty logical all around.  Rhule just was not ready and a clown on top of that.   I still think the Dave, BY, XL, Tmac build 3 round pegs and a square one at the end of the day.  Worst thing to happen to BY was to land in Carolina IMO.   Which is often how the NFL plays out.  Where you land and what the org does matters probably more than raw talent/ability often.  I do not actually have a problem with Adam Thielen in a vacuum.  He is overperforming in a vacuum all things considered.

      Bryce Young could throw for 40 tds and 4500 yards this season and my gut instinct still says you would triple down on hating him.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      They should just be predetermined slotted contracts.  I feel like that was the intention of the current system, but they left too much room for interpretation about guaranteed money.  I agree though.  You play for who drafts you or you don't play.
