Former Patriot Ty Warren Still Holds Massachusetts Fishing Record

Found December 06, 2012 on Patriots Life: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Ty Warren,  Vince Wilfork,  Matt Light
TEAMS: Denver Broncos,  New England Patriots,  Houston Texans
That right there is the Vince Wilfork of fish.This 62-pound mahi-mahi caught by former New England Patriots defensive end Ty Warren back in 2009 remains the record for largest of that type of fish ever snagged in the great state of Massachusetts. The Boston Globe had a tidbit about the massive lunker back when it happened that explains some of the story behind the record.According to Hairball Charters captain Eric Stapelfeld - who took this picture and helped Warren snag the fish - the state record for a mahi-mahi (was) 47 pounds. Warren and Stapelfeld, who met through their mutual friend Matt Light, caught the big fish during a Saturday boat trip around the Canyons off Martha’s Vineyard. “It’s way beyond catching a good fish,’’ Stapelfeld explained, proudly. “The odds of catching it are one in millions.’’I don't know how this got past me before, unless I knew all about it and just forgot it over these past couple years, but this is a pretty remarkable accomplishment.

Matthew Slater Using ‘Next Man Up’ Mantra, Ready to Take Julian Edelman’s Spot in Patriots’ Offense If Needed

Via NESN.com  |  December 06, 2012
FOXBORO, Mass. — Donte Stallworth is back in New England. But he’s not the only veteran with a chance to fill the Patriots’ void at wide receiver. When Julian Edelman went down with a broken foot during Sunday’s win in Miami, Stallworth — who had worked out for the Patriots just a week earlier — was brought in as his replacement.  But the veteran receiver may need some...

Via Tireball.com  |  December 06, 2012
Brandon Stokley will play in Thursday nights game against the Oakland Raiders. Stokley missed the Broncos last game dealing with a wrist injury.

With a two-game lead on the rest of the AFC, the Houston Texans could go a long way toward proving they're the team to beat this week.
