By Sterling Pingree: Sports Chowdah On Sunday, news broke that Tom Brady and the Patriots have reached an agreement on a two year contract extension that will give the GOAT $8 million more this season and make him a Patriot through 2021. Quite the birthday present for a 42-year old quarterback, one that no other […]
By Sterling Pingree: Sports Chowdah The talk of most training camps, as they opened up this past week, has to do with a superstar who is holding out. Even as Tom Brady enters the final year of his current deal, it has hardly warranted the major media attention that Zeke Elliott or Melvin Gordon has. […]
By Ryan McLaughlin Sports Chowdah. Summer in New England tends to fly by, doesn’t it? Heck, I’m already counting down the days until my vacation at the end of August. And for Patriots fans? July 25 – the start of training camp – is marked on the calendar as well. It is on mine. The […]
By Sterling Pingree- Sports Chowdah.com. On television, the Red Sox are beating up another tomato can, but maintaining their double digit deficit in the East.

At approximately 2:27pm yesterday, the world shook. In most cases, saying that the earth shook from something that happened in sports would be considered radical hyperbole, but Tiger Woods winning the 2019 Masters is above all hyperbole. One of the greatest athletes of ours or any generation ascended back to the top of the world […]
The NFL will release its schedule within the next week or so. Roger Goodell has already chickened out and moved the Patriots opener to Sunday night instead of Thursday (as is tradition for the Super Bowl champs) so he doesn’t have to come to Gillette. We know the Patriots will host: Cleveland, Dallas, New York […]
The new Alliance of American Football (AAF) kicked off Saturday. While social media is giving the product some love, I can guaran-darn-tee you nobody in the six state area known as New England cares. Well, at least not Patriots fans. After dining on lobster with the Pats, theres no appetite to munch on sea urchins […]
My former WZON co-host Pat Spekhardt started a lively Facebook debate last week. His contention: the Tom Brady era is amazing but not as impressive as the Bill Russell era. As often was the case on our old radio show, I feel the need to set him straight. Let’s be clear out of the gate. […]
