    the Patriots released Tiquan Underwood the day before the super bowl.

    now i dont know who this 24 year old kid is, but you have to just add this to the long list of why people hate the Patriots and Belacheat.

    releasing a guy on the eve of the super bowl is pretty much unheard of unless its for dissaplenary reasons.

    for 2 weeks this kid has probably been on cloud 9 and now hes probably feeling about as unlucky as can be.

    im not sure if this kid is any good, but i would love to see the Steelers sign him just to let him play against the Pats and possibly have a big game.

    According to ESPN: The team released Underwood on Saturday, and promoted defensive lineman Alex Silvestro off the practice squad. The move was not discipline-based, but a pure football decision based on needs specific to the Super Bowl XLVI game plan, according to a source.

    Can't imagine he plans to use this guy he promoted, but I also can't imagine the other guy would have played much of a role. The timing of it is what seems very weird to me. Who does something like that the day before any game, even if it's week 4? Maybe he knows something about one of his linemen and isn't sure he'll be able to make it through the day.

    Sucks to be the guy who got dropped, but if this is how Belichick gets his jollies, he's not just hateable, he's crazy bored too.

    I read that the Pats do all their transactions on Saturday. This has been the norm for them thru-out the season. They do this because any players they drop on Saturday, cant be contacted by other teams until Monday.

    I think I read that the replacement didn't even play (MMQB).

    Well Tiquan doesn't have to be worried about missing out on a SB ring. Maybe he can get a nice ribbon with a medal that says second place.
