You know we've reached the true NFL offseason ā the first six weeks of summer ā when even the most devoted media who cover the game have virtually nothing to write about.
The biggest news this Thursday is that the Patriots have been nominated for four ESPY Awards. Fans can vote now in advance of the show, which takes place in mid-July.
ESPNBoston.com has a post about Josh McDaniels and how the Patriots OC continues to be talked about as a head coaching candidate.
In the *Boston Herald*, there's a "now-what" piece regarding Tom Brady and his appeal, plus former Patriot Matt Light has some harsh words for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and his handling of Tom Brady's DeflateGate situation.
WEEI.com has a column about how the NFL had it in for the Patriots from the start in that matter.
And NESN.com has interesting stories about a Brady fan who went a little overboard to support his favorite player this week and a local golf course that did something similar.
