FOXBORO – As Hank Williams, Jr. would have put it, “Are you ready for some football?’’
Please, God.
For over six months there has been more focus placed on what’s inside a Patriots’ football than on what’s inside the Patriots’ locker room. That is about to end because, for better or worse, 71-year-old federal Judge Richard Berman is going to force the issue and use some common sense doing it.
Berman has forced settlements in a number of high-profile cases and is famous for handing the lawyers on both sides pens after a settlement is reached that have a quotation from the first rule of civil procedure.
