    classless move IMO. If you are going to make this move, don't do it right before the big game, do it before they make the trip. Got to feel bad if the Patriots win and he sees him team celebrate and he can't be apart of it.

    I found this funny

    Ask Jeremy Shockey about which ring meant more to him, his first one where he did not even play in the game because he was hurt, or the one were he got to play?

    Bunch of jerks. I hope that promoted d-lineman whiffs on a tackle that leads to a touchdown

    It's a business. Why should one player's feelings get in the way of winning a SB? Bilichik thinks he needs an extra DL, someone has to make room for thim. Can't let one guy stand in the way of 52 others.

    With that said, go GMEN!

    So he didn't need that extra DL until last night?

    Belichick is merely swapping a wide receiver who wouldn't have played for a DE who will and Belichick is known for making moves the night before the games as a way to keep the other team guessing.

    So no, he knew, and yes, he did it the night before. Screw the superbowl, Underwood might get butthurt if we cut him now. It's professional sports. Deal with it.

    No, he purposely waited for the eleventh hour to cut the dude. Give him more credit than that. So yes, him and the coaching staff made that decision last night.

    I know right. This is classless but no one cares that the Giants were concussion hunting against SF?

    oh my mistake. shame on the Patriots for setting up a game plan and not making everyone fit. I will personally lobby to expand the roster to 54 men just to make sure this never happends again.

    No. He probably needed him but didn't want to cut Underwood earlier so the Giants can't pick him up and get information. They are unable to do that right now because he is a Saturday waiver.
