Q: Lawyer (Milloy) is gone. What does this do to the heart and soul of this football team?
TB: It takes a big hit.
Q: How surprised were you?
TB: About as surprised as you could possibly be. I mean, I don't know. It was a big surprise.
Q: You talked to him a lot. Did he have any idea that this might be coming if they couldn't get a deal worked out?
TB: I'm sure that you guys will have a chance to talk to him at some point. He was a New England Patriot and he was what this team was all about. To see a guy like that go…
Q: Do you think that there is a chance that he may come back and play here?
TB: I don't know. I think that everyone would hope, but I don't think that is really the reality.
Q: You are as upbeat a guy is there is. It is on your face that this is a huge blow to this locker room and this team on the field.
TB: I think with a guy like that, he did everything you could ever ask of a player and of a guy that represents this team and this franchise. He showed up every day, never missed a game, never missed a practice, never complained. He was one of those guys where you look into this eyes before the game and you knew exactly what you were going to get. Not only was he a great friend, but he was a great person.

Even if we don't sign him, the Pats WILL be affected. :snicker:
