I can't remember not being a Patriots fan, but my earliest actual memory is the drafting of Jim Plunkett. My father's company (or union, I'm not sure) took in a lot of sporting events, so we spent at least one Sunday a year in Schaefer Stadium.I was in my early teens watching the NFL network do a show on the big tuna drafting drew bledsoe.
It is very good to be a pats fan right now.
I loved watching Grogan, Sam "Bam" Cunningham, Russ Francis, Steve Nelson, Julius Adams.
I really became a Pats fan during the 76-77 season (I was 12). I just loved the way they were a solid, punch you in the mouth, football team. That AFCC game against the Raiders still burns me!!!
I remember when Steve Grogan was the new guy. My family watched all the local teams. Pats, Bruins, Celitics, Red Sox. I got hooked on the Pats and the Bruins, I lost interest in the Bruins after Orr left and it was the Pats from then on. I remember Kraft buying the team and hiring Parcells. What a fraking ride !!!
