No, I haven't lost my mind; I honestly believe that. This is just such an amazing time to be a Patriots fan, and I'm so, so thankful that I was around to live through what New England has accomplished over these past fifteen years.
There are a lot of fans out there who are feeling pretty low right now, who are down on this team, on its owner, and on the league in general because of the events of the past few days. And thinking about that makes me sad; the offseason following a Super Bowl victory should never be anything but sunshine and rainbows, no matter who gets cut or what your rivals end up doing to improve their teams or what's in the media.
