Hey T Cobe, in spite of you making fun of my QB Tommy I'll respond to your question :-). I have quite a bit of mono, I play it with my normal stereo cartridge (didn't even know there were mono cartridges - interesting). Sounds great...

Thanks, Pbgalvin. I'll probably try a few mono records. Regarding the Patriots, I have a great deal of respect for the franchise and Belichek is the best coach in the league: hands down! I'm just not a fan of Brady and the lack of accountability within the group.

I don't think they have done anything different than any other team. They look for every competitive advantage and walk a fine line, as I'm sure most teams do. I would just prefer a team own it or say nothing when they get caught and move on. Accountability and integrity are a big deal to me, but I guess I'm a bit old fashioned.

I suppose sports could join the ranks of religion and politics in being topics that can get a bit heated. There are things I don't like about the Packers as well and they are my team of choice, as hard as that may be. I wish they were as consistent as the Patriots. Anyways, thanks for the response and enjoy the music!

Cheers,

T Cobe

We in patriots nation deal with the accusations by thinking nothing was proved, we were over punished and the league is out to get the pats. Righteous indignation and all that :-).

Listening to West Side Story soundtrack on (stereo) vinyl.
Found a fellow in Stoughton MA who owned a record store, then closed it and went on line, and now is getting ready to retire so is selling off his used LPs, tapes, posters etc cheap. $2 per LP so worth taking a shot on a lot of stuff (after avoiding the obviously scratched ones. Found some great stuff including Jazz and soundtracks...

Nice find from the Stoughton fellow and playing now, an unplayed LP of Leonard Bernstein conducting Scheherazade (www.discogs.com/Rimsky-Korsakov-New-York...zade/release/2939244)
Unopened since it was produced in 1959! Very nice..

I guess that's part of being in top. Face it, nobody is going after the Browns for cheating... I guess we can both count ourselves fortunate to have successful teams.

Nice find with the records!

Cheers,

Hey, Pbgalvin, it sounds like you and I have to stick together... not many Pat's fans out there! :laugh:

Seriously, I saw lots of good football yesterday. Houston's defense came to play. They gave the Pat's offense all they could handle. If Osweiler hadn't tossed a couple errant passes, who knows... And Matt Ryan sure played like an MVP for the Falcons.

Two more good games coming up. T, I won't be rooting against Green Bay. They were my favorite team "back when" Lombardi was coaching. I guess I like teams that come to play, every game.

Happy watching all!
