The New England Patriots have agreed in principal to trade Logan Mankins to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as per Jay Glazer.



Mankins was the Patriots first round pick in the 2005 draft. He made 6 pro bowls and is a 5 time All-Pro player since being drafted out of Fresno St.

In return the Patriots will get TE Tim Wright who went undrafted out of Rutgers and played in all 16 games last year for the Bucs. He caught 54 passes for 571 yards and 5 touchdowns. They will also receive a draft pick but as of right now no terms on what that pick might be.

Me? well i thought you'd never ask. well i'm around 25 years old, give or take, i mean the only way to tell for sure is to cut me open and count my rings but for now i'm content to say i'm 25. i'm freakin funny, and if you disagree with me i will stab you in the jaw. i love to just chill with my friends, they are awesome, they laugh at my jokes, sure, it took some jaw stabbing but hey its not always easy. i haven't quite mastered the whole think before you speak program, apparently, if you start a sentence with "now don't take this the wrong way" people still take it the wrong way. i know, i know, it doesn't make any sense to me either, but it happens. twice while i was fishing, i've seen beavers with paws the size of frying pans that could rip a mans face right off! oh and i hate bears, its just terrible what happened to those two hikers from the czech republic. terrible. i really like to go fourwheeling, i like to work on cars but i'm way to lazy to actually do it. i cant wait to go snowboarding this winter, i'm pretty good, steve once said i looked like a train wreck, he's borderline pro, so that really made my day. oh and once i had a dream.
