Pats Pulpit

Let me start off by asking this question, who's 40 and washed up? Not this guy!

In the New England Patriots second game of the season against the Saints in New Orleans, the "washed up" quarter back threw three outstanding touch down passes. Brady now also joins NFL history with former NFL quarterback, Warren Moon. Moon and Brady earned this by being 40 or older passing 400 yards or more along with three touchdowns in a single game. His passes were 30 for 39 with no interceptions. I mean, it could have been 28 for 39, but flags were thrown for two of the so called interceptions and were wiped out. (Elias Sports Bureau and Patriots.com)

In other news, Gronk made his 69th touchdown!!

But of course, how would it be a football game without any injuries? Gronk and defensive back Eric Rowe were out with groin injuries. Wide receiver Chris Hogan was on the bench with some sort of wrap on his right thigh, and running back Rex Burkhead receives a lovely rib injury. Gronk will be returning for week three, but Rowe, Hogan and Burkhead are questionable to return. (Patriots Wire)

It's great to see the boys bounce back from the "L" they took last Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs! I'm sure it was just them being so tired from all of the partying they did during the off season celebrating their Super Bowl win. ;) But you know they always make a comeback! Hoping and praying for no more injuries the next game (Totally just jinxed it, sorry guys)


Next game: Sunday, September 24, 2017 at Gillette against the Houston Texans.

P.S. I miss Vince Wilfork :(

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
