[1:30]" PFW progress Gillette stadium Thursday afternoon. No Red Sox talk today still talking patriots as always here patriots dot com. Fred -- is in the building but he's eating Paul Burroughs in the building but he's trying to log -- to the -- I'm Indian -- Tom the Sally -- LB you know will join us for the second hour when we do our. Thursday tradition of going around the league in making their picks. This first hour we're talking patriots were talking Redskins Richard Seymour back on the practice field again today. Obviously he had started his PUP window in which the team must decide within 21 days as to whether activate him to the roster. I'm based on some of the talk out of Washington they're going to prep at least a little bit for the possibility that Richard Seymour could be across the ball you know Pete Kendall talking about it and Joe -- talking about a little bit. I'm not sure we'll see Seymour but the window has begun and we'll see him soon I expect them as as I've said earlier in the show. I thought -- a week earlier last week that -- impacts things a little surprised it took him actually. But quiet locker room not a lot going on -- check I'd say a little bit cranky that he's been in recent weeks to thank yes. -- on I've he's had image he's had as edged back previously at buddy was almost giddy at the podium and laugh and in. Yuck it up as much as you know he -- it up to any degree. But maybe he's a little concerned as he's talked about about the tackling -- about the deep Bentsen. Some of the issues may be that are surrounding his still undefeated still very dominant team but we all know he likes to. Look way down the road at any issues that could cost them down on the line and maybe he sees few of those I get the."
[3:11]" Action and not necessarily promise anybody specifically saying it but it I get the impression that they they were some pretty though were pretty Artest you know there weren't full pads -- told us that during the show yesterday afternoon. I think it may have been in going at a little bit harder than they normally would on midweek practice especially at this stage of the season. And I think the tackling issue is probably at the top of the list. Some of the players talked about that after the Miami game it was an obvious that bank UG it was an obvious. Situation and in terms of an obvious message that ballots cat -- the the players after the Miami game because to a man that the -- players talked about. The tackling needing to -- so clearly not that politics focused on I think that maybe we saw a little bit yesterday at practice little surprised that Richard Seymour was out wasn't available today in a locker generally he's a guy that it that it makes himself available particularly when he knows. He's historian at the time not like him not to be around I guess he was in the lunchroom and had never made it. Yet it's a little -- I mean I don't read. And I don't I don't read anything at all and so at least it was surprising that dot that would be one of those things that you could sort of count on TV. -- doesn't ardently backed that wanted to be and that's action very possible. You know until -- ready to play I don't want to hear your voice I don't want to see you in the newspapers or on TV. When your -- to play you'll be part of the team again until then. Now we we'd like to we'd like to read between the lines of -- okay Fred Fred taught us that we need to try to do that. And -- each Cecil. Right we we are along -- when I graduate -- none of -- could do a whole -- matter fact probably the fact that none of us would have jobs that exists without him we -- for when he was but that's said we try to we try to interpret as much information from the -- in the answers that we can. Anyway you able to interpret anything from -- response about Seymour in particular today beyond the stuff that he says all the time. About you know. I'm unrealistic to expect guys -- 67 practices the speed."
[5:28]" You know we always stated he's he's -- really questioned may have been broadly worded but wasn't really what the guy I want to ask is the 100% what were -- Not -- 100% compared to everybody else -- the 100% right -- if -- technical then he more should be more 100% than the guys who played 70 practices in seven games. The guy once there was Seymour yet the ease him into -- not fully healthy yet winners yet in his recovery process but. -- really. Read much into it I mean I think bill has this era of animosity towards guys who. Are -- don't play I just think it's as natural as a coach. Easier rated by guys not being available and Richard Seymour was not available for the first six weeks with -- for training camp. I don't think it's any more so with -- than any other player who would be in a similar situation I think. That's one of those cases where he truly focuses on the 53 guys he has to work with and is in -- way that Richard Seymour is not on that list of 53 guys waiting Anke I think he starts. Credit you're gonna it yet address me as part of the show an opportunity that interaction here some -- this is radio. Are you doing the Dikembe Mutombo right finger at me."
[6:41]" I guys paper here. -- heard last comment. So victims -- be careful of what you think about that situation has little birdies telling me. That you have influential birdies at Richard Seymour was actually surprised when he was put -- this year. I'm told that I'm told that by a lot of people. That that he was upset about it but always surprised I was on another heritage is Richard Seymour I think when a guy's not on the 53. He gets the same sat out I told help but but don't think that this was you know 'cause. Someone could infer from what you're saying that. You know this is Richard Seymour kinda. Take it 80 Z and it being cautious with a self when in fact. I think this -- the team. Being cautious with Richard Seymour as I definitely didn't mean to -- that you know that's what seemed -- this this was now I don't think we -- in the heat -- tightly he well. Are not -- but he was ready to go at less than being healthy. He was surprised when he was put UP."
[7:46]" Yeah not only to be careful with -- topic we're discussing if that's been a wise I think he was surprised I've had people tell me that and well we've heard a lot of things what do you think that he via -- what do you think that he'll. He'll start mean I would imagine like anybody else coming back he's. Not gonna just be handed spot right away going to work on scout team and stuff like that -- and we -- to start we've seen that we -- know that's the way that works well it."
[8:12]" This is another indication of -- to really knowing this team because if in fact it's true. But you knew he was going to be able to without Seymour let's err on the side of caution in in mid season have come fresh in -- ago another brilliant move by bill ballots. I gotta I gotta do is put another point point -- I don't a lot of I got a slam the brakes on you think that he thought he could've played but so we don't need him somewhat fractured expect and you thought it was funny that I buddy hold out Laurence Maroney for one game against the Cleveland Browns he told him Richard -- out for seven -- great games against everybody. Not -- this we don't need him but I'd rather you know I've got a choice to make here like it happened coming in 80%. You know make him work and -- you know maybe gets better as he plays or. I can hope this guy out maturities under -- and and I think we can we can deal with it. Not having him out there I think that's that's more what are. In a choice to make any he he was confident to err on the side. -- I think a lot of teams if you have your pro bowl you know. Right tackle it and he says on -- the doctor says yes he could play you're gonna have him play."
[9:30]" I didn't. I disagree with that I don't Everett I don't think he's talking and -- when he knows I don't think that he felt like he could play. And did -- right but seaport did he let -- doctors but I don't think they're built felt like he was. Physically ready to play. That's that's technical rule as well physically unable more right that's all. On the week as usual argument here yes we need to like about things well or apologies. -- says Gillette stadium Michelle Murphy was the contact. Is that possible or -- the PR departments who -- a a a of this sick since she doesn't work here -- deficit wanted to moment there. So this they didn't order -- now this is too much like our order it is very much I was just while not really worried but. I was just -- doesn't work him. I know I was I'm guessing they were just they were. -- because which uses the one or if it's odd email okay so we're so we need to thank. I would get a whoever we need to thank him a little bit but okay back to Richard -- so when is Richard Seymour play -- to ensure the answer man on the trail Indy. I Richard Seymour will return against the Indy and the patriots Steelers game has been moved for 15 according to -- Parents when he talks this definitively Fred usually knows what he's talking about you like that idea just -- on this more -- like that idea. -- idea I mean potentially your biggest game of the season. What role to play which you it would be better to get him out there this week to get a week -- snaps orders belt. Tornado -- Tony cannot -- that pitino's brother."
[11:17]" Apparently not to spread them all thank you Tony did not go above and beyond a tremendous order would -- such a big order we -- you Friday's launch out of -- well with the supersize extra large pizzas that puppet you know as -- selling these days. Above and beyond all of it thank you very much on if if Seymour comes out today and Erick will ever stop by. The forum it's he comes out today in full pads. I say there's a chance that he does a few snaps by the way he was hopeful that only wants he had this is sweat pants on but it was like the Ty Law. He was just like everybody if he was he was -- the -- the highlights that they I had so now. It didn't have pants on. But that oh that was his choice Alexei and he might to a full I don't I'm saying that it was his choice you know I OK so I'm I'm changing my prediction I'm predicting he might have. A few snaps this week. I'd like that I -- what I saw yesterday on on the highlights. He was don't mean he was participating okay with everybody else in -- and I -- told but he was who is he -- are predicting he will be active on Sunday and play a lot but he'll play a little bit. On Sunday. So that that's my prediction. I'm Sally just joined us on that has bacon -- it race he wants you know he wanted a tremendous them at the same thing yeah. Help yourself to the other one."
[12:42]" Who was at Baylor to a for time you don't know that he has the two -- that we've seen him lately. But -- needed. Wings -- in as a war and that's what we want to thank -- From Florida thank you very much -- Italy's next -- mail well. That was cut now I remember anyone who buys -- watched. If you come to let stadium will be given a tour. Anyone who -- wells we have for them that I'm sure you have some of -- you get yelled at but over -- If you want to give Gary yours actress opposite view a limited -- patriots united. It's a funny. It's a nice book. They remember that are set for the first time I -- said that anyone. And you have and what. If you let stadium bucolic stuff it all -- broke this year give us a Colin all right just another sub but a popular you want on our requests aren't right you you -- want someone -- the -- yeah. I'll be happy to -- site. It's as the ugly hallway this is the crappy this all the epic right can take you like what the pipes are all and -- short -- actually. The the drawback of me given the to a wouldn't be anything to do with what you just but I don't really know all the different intricacies of the building human now how many years you've been here. On this -- but. I'm pretty sure company policy is only go where you're supposed to go to -- actually stay out of -- probably -- why your ID doesn't give you access to certain areas of the building that your idea I'm sure does give you I can take them but we might end up fighters deeper you lost one -- right one -- it up on the other side of the stadium. Afraid to give anybody sore arms going all anybody that buys us wants -- if he buys a large part of the mature. -- and they advertise. All right. Did you men -- so what's going on I spent a good half hour with Logan me and a Logan Logan mannequins and John hand Logan manna from heaven. I don't know what -- listening knows what it means either so stop talking about our listeners to know what manna from heaven -- just approved these guys wrong but I didn't say -- I did say you're wrong about that I just had I had never heard it but I know what else though when it all. That's on top I don't knows I'm not aligning myself without live right now -- I know I'm right -- dot com okay globally yeah that power with Logan Mankins pray tell why was half hour with Logan meaning to John -- Got them together they'd never met never crossed paths at all. -- for a bye week feature story -- sort of about sitting them down talk in football label you know told stories and different things in their views on how the game has changed a little bit. It was fun. Was interest at a date. I don't want to spoil the story but give us not give us a reason why we should read this story"
[15:35]" well they there was an it. Well I guess I'll give the night couldn't have pulled it on the it's Mankins was drafted he has debt through a draft party they're two later. And one of his friends came over and handed him a drawn in a football card and that you're going to play the exact same position. As the greatest offensive lineman ever played the game while. Which is a little nugget in the in the other tell that story may Mankins told the story to John -- that meant -- and is very. Sort of -- shy he was a little awkward and uncomfortable sitting next do you know basically the guy is a living legend as far as lineman goes right but a lot of the talking had to do with you know Hannah it's a different game today and handed doesn't know how good he'd be a lot of different perspectives stories in a telling about guys he watched and learned from Mankins saying I tried that but now I've learned that it's -- pays ways the only way so that's what I do now have Hannah said in a patted him on the shoulder and said something about -- that the first time they've met. Yes -- cool in the first time you listen apparently pitchers right now automatically the story just -- now there's a lot of good stories quotes so. Was make kids like. Kind of in awe of being with anorexia a little bit and I asked him about that I says the same thing. You know if if a receiver you know if Randy moss sits down with you know 20 years somebody has its different because the general public doesn't necessarily I don't think think of John -- as -- store right because those -- were a little different way right and and -- said he didn't think O lineman until he. Start playing lining college in in. So you know is just but a lot of talk about how they're both sort of farm boy season. Different things backgrounds that are sort of similar great it'll it'll be fun we took photos. Of them sort of standing back Sebastian but I don't know if -- make it is bigger always. He but -- said that Mankins and Pete Brock -- of a similar build the Brock was tall not quite as heavy. But was bigger than and he said you know people joke about John -- was dominant at 27 a lot -- he played with were bigger aegis. His weight was 27 as we played right he was masks but a lot of talk about them pulling in how DBs react when they're coming -- the corner it's the Americans are and and I -- and they. In his diving you'd need just to get them to talk football little bit that's what it was."
[18:01]" It was against that's how I'd stop you can get with patriots football weekly -- progress you'll hear about it in advance. So anybody sense launch will continue and tell -- football weekly in progress in no barrel that volley well now I get it. Sure it's not pro football weekly like the IT department thinks he -- recently server that says pro football weekly I don't know we had a service pro football weekly. Right -- patriots we we -- here and Paul -- patriots weekly is here and it's OK -- somebody outside the organization does that I'm fine with that. But inside the organization learned the company yet. Why I don't call between the braves I know that the revolution play here right. I -- Clarence Thomas who worked for the company you're -- IF the I don't know what they do but I know they exist and I know that I QB while. Little -- by 80 heart happens it's all business and this is the guy who always -- why you so mad in their defense striking guys. So they make wrestler -- their policies right well. But we have no idea -- argument for that I delete -- which is another -- is that he's out that in 35 seconds of several shut down to victories they've ever been real quick. In the bathroom the -- are not they keep. Adding restrictions for the past words out all rights -- that really getting ridiculous -- so well you're only good -- the pilots have to write them down Italian not to write them down out there for -- please you have an office I have a Cuban mine is -- he right by the side of my computer. But he knows that. And that towards that that's -- magistrate -- can and my computer okay it's QB smaller -- and my kids get our guys always have accusing -- against I heard a rumor that the reconfiguring I saw the guy measuring yesterday's I don't think it's a rumor. There reconfiguring in order to make better use of the space so we're going to be like going from Gillette stadium when nice spacious seats in -- to Fenway Park it's question and a -- of the other listeners. Fascinated with this time I'm ready I think they love everything web rarely are practicing that on our upper field today he okay without a the I think people -- now other outdoors yesterday they were indoors today they're outdoors. And I think people want to know that our cubes are getting smaller and I think that practice in this room are -- going to get. I don't wanna block that really body of Italy but I did TTDs with -- Gary Gary if I like that but Fred I don't wanna. Anyway web radio patriots back out you have any thoughts at all but the Redskins evidently read oracle will take those -- yeah we're looking ahead to the colts would make it no no bones about -- fact I think that bill -- is that a very good job. Raising that register all over him raising the red flag of the Redskins befits -- everyone I talked to like outside of the building. It's it's a pretty good defense that's 'cause it's a fact I don't buy it. It's you know I didn't need -- to tell me. You know look at the league stats. But the match it's still 60 and a half point favorites. Well that has been about as that I had been right because the Redskins offense -- sites such as -- Joe Gibbs says -- be concerned with anything about the Redskins. You know knowing that but the Redskins offense -- now you concerned when you say concerned concerned about winning window yet I don't everybody topic about winning. But I think that the Redskins do have a pretty good they don't like the Buffalo Bills that you try to claim -- This is a team and I think as a decent defense but it will be on the field so much and the offense will not be able to anything to score any points but as I don't think they have the the ability to do so -- after the tongue lashing out last week the patriots. That the fits all they won't miss a tackle all week I think balls. On the right track and a battle Libya on the on the field all day but the probably put bad situations because turnover and you know -- deep fences fine but you know he's going to pay off but the the patriots not as ball 35 minutes. All the sudden you know does -- I think that's a good point although it gets but that's all right with office actually had the ball longer than the pitchers that's scored so quickly. And the dolphins were running the ball down 25 points because one in the -- that's their game and they just were in the office they just ran their offense and -- better job than we did. He ended outscored the second into the whole quote I can't wait that December game as that I know it freaked and what you know that that's going to be -- the -- on that Wednesday press conference -- just holding on what's like the fact that. Dolphins are dropping like flies now Zach Thomas in the car taxes not play this week. Whiplash who knows how long that. I'm I -- I -- back in the suitcase that's Zach Thomas whiplash is is akin to Rodney dangerfield broken arm. All my neck. At -- and Pete -- in the Super -- now let's pray that -- Eugene -- Ankle by the way we hated on the field we -- talk about that yesterday that he was not a practice -- that. Later in the day injury report useless that having missed practice art what are limitless especially practice. With with an ankle injury. Now what Eric said about Seymour want to clarify that he it was true he had. You know that doesn't have the experience he had the gray sweats on but when I watched the highlights that they showed on on TV on the local news last night. He was going for all the drills to it wasn't like he was limited in many -- patient players in the past. Ty Law always did but it's always did things that we don't know because it was out. If there were any hitting drills to participate I'm told he did. Don't you have to -- rule have personal pride -- is no rules second ball players don't play and you know I have to with thigh pads in the game. -- you don't put general outline into almost neighbors -- helmet and shoulder pads he -- the only things that you're required to use more photo here knowing he wears. I mean normally you know receivers will not where sometimes quarterbacks but he's all right guys. Number like I know that he Bruschi yeah we're able linebackers I'd definitely he doesn't -- court Ivan that is -- Dickey said he's got a both. Both ways in the past he's he want to many as a warm -- Would document that -- with the -- required to winners only field. Not the padlocked icicle -- that. -- throughout I was -- on -- withdrawal Pat's like I used to wear high school it's out of an ambulance probably -- something else that he's -- me on. I don't paint job he was limited thread yesterday in practice Seymour I think they'll need a good night Ellis to use that -- it was more accurate. Report from yesterday I do think -- play a few more accurate -- I live report -- like I didn't want to make it sound like Disney wasn't wrong that's what he -- if I'd I just don't think that he was limited. Justin -- perspective from the past I'd just gotten better out. Regular sweat pants that are -- I just want to read Tony's email -- that Tony Thomas responsible for this wonderful -- that we all doing good afternoon gentlemen in -- Indy. I thought it was about time to treat you got to launch once again please be on the lookout for I told them delivered to the security gate but I am not optimistic. -- and a new person answering the phone and he was confused especially. When he wanted me to sign the credit card receipt which abortion. I was I taught out of since I have -- think about what part. I enjoy you guys crack me up every chance I get that was the year podcast I cannot imagine me dragging out my boss the way you guys -- Redd torched now it's a great -- all laws. And -- what -- outlet I what's going on. -- that what do you want at this and I don't want any -- on what I wanted to -- next to me on the plane while working always wise like that would like that's what it is Reggie you made that happen you got it done extremely well I've never -- excited that that's first and foremost at these young guys get things done. And the people we need around here there's no way I get that I'm going to feel like this. Did you win but I how I felt all you got to a fight with a guy told you he'd taken nine Jason -- yeah I'll take a hundred record -- all right that ratio I don't know it's -- the locker room talking to Mark -- you -- and you weren't even there -- you or even better electorate employees work you -- out if you need to get things done that's very quick -- made Manfred. Well the last -- also -- accommodate ethnic. That's the last thing he -- and and you know which is you know well all look at all of us. Now that would wheel talent would tell on Mark wouldn't rate -- should wash U. He was he was -- well I was saying how I'm I'm not boss material because I don't like just talent people everything what what I don't eat that stuff I don't either and now. And and we were -- power threat we get the job done you don't I said spreads good because he lets us do our job but he's got to put the hammer down when he needs to be put down whereas I don't think because she's at a concert. Basically we we were talking about your competitive -- Your impending retirement seems quite conservative route was concerned about that that you have a midlife crisis -- its -- could I had a discussion on my wife last night about. What we do. That's got home from work and Arafat -- for the world forget about -- I've got off from Warrick and a letter again you know settled in for about 15 minutes -- I think we really haven't concerned about the situation. We've talked about it in the past but now it's reached the point of -- dining rooms all over New England right now concerned about you know at theater gets uptight I was and -- do because at the age of 39 I'm not ready to retire -- only 39 at. And that was intentions every you know I intentionally set my job Soriano wants and you guys could do -- And sell other Golan back Panama automatic you have sick as a dog like Chicago until many get apologize and I'm not get one Tom that would today's code says the sick all that happened that's up on top box that's that's the wives tale apples in a later -- life or rural. But you know you won't get sick later this -- that's great get out of the lawyer I mean. I don't want to get sick now -- I'd -- of people getting mildly sick after the -- at this rate for if I don't beautiful -- I use it once or without getting really maybe that if I do get in Vegas equate it maybe one or tied right -- stop -- for -- I don't know is whether I just finished Tony email yes I. I he needs some advice this summer I was fortunate to purchase by auction of football in the 1960. Patriots team an autograph by the original members Jack Rudolph a linebacker that is memorabilia up for auction. That by the way it was a year at age 14 -- to what's my first of very many patriot games. I would like to loan it to the new museum in need to know need to contact I believe that it is better to have many people view this priceless artifact. And it is stay in my patriots were met home -- that's great the person you want to contact is name is ranked Hansel. In his email is Brent H at patriots dot com BRE and E. I would've gone with the main phone number there can't pay the cubs now we want actually saw that Jack Rudolph -- Jack off collection we had a book of all sports review that was in there. We're actually thinking linebacker. Rudolph that's what he said it I didn't listen to them catalog contact -- Tony is -- he'll take area and it will take care you because you take care about. All right -- step aside would get spread back in the hot seat here announced not to show for real only get back."
