Bill Belichick of the New England Patriots is the highest-paid coach in sports, according to Forbes magazine's annual list. His annual salary: $7.5 million. National Football League coaches occupy eight of the list's top 10 places. Other North American professional sports are represented in the list by two NBA coaches. Winning a Super Bowl is not necessarily a requirement for high monetary compensation, but it doesn't hurt, consider the NFL coaches behind Belichick on the list. Three are tied for second place: Mike Shanahan of the Washington Redskins, Jeff Fisher of the St. Louis Rams and Pete Carroll of the Seattle Seahawks. Shanahan, Fisher and Carroll each are paid $7 million annually.

Wes Welker: Contract talks with the Patriots have “gotten worse”

Via Pro Football Zone  |  May 17, 2012
Getty Images New England Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker has come out and said that since he signed his franchise tender, contract talks between his representatives and the Patriots have only gotten worse. “There have been talks, but nothing that’s brightened anything at all,” Welker said. “It’s actually gotten worse.” Welker admitted that he went against the advice...

Things are beginning to get ugly between Wes Welker and the Patriots

Via No Guts, No Glory  |  May 18, 2012
One would’ve never thought the day would come that Wes Welker’s relationship with the Patriots was so strained that he could possibly be on his way out of New England. Yes, there are contract issues, but that’s pretty normal in the world of professional sports. The athlete thinks he’s worth one thing and the team thinks he’s worth another. That’s just the way it works...

‘Call Me Brady’ Is The Perfect Troll Brady Summer Jam

Spencer Larsen Jokes That He Used to Beat Up Rob Gronkowski in College

Via NESN.com  |  May 17, 2012
FOXBORO, Mass. -- Like every red-blooded player in the New England locker room, Patriots fullback Spencer Larsen has enjoyed his time around tight end Rob Gronkowski. Larsen, actually, is reconnecting with Gronkowski, and he said the third-year tight end is still the same guy he knew at Arizona. Larsen was a senior when Gronkowski showed up as a freshman. "Just incredible, you...

Seau's death hit home for ex-Patriot Ted Johnson

Via AP on Fox  |  May 18, 2012
Former New England Patriots linebacker Ted Johnson says the death of Junior Seau was ''the tip of the tipping point'' that convinced him to speak out for concussion victims. Seau shot himself in the chest this month. Although there has been no link established between possible head injuries and his death, Johnson says he's convinced it is at least part of what...

New England Patriots Fantasy Football Projections

Via The Football Fan Spot  |  May 17, 2012
QB Tom Brady (New England) Tom Brady threw for 5235 yards last year on the strength of 611 passing attempts, but he’s only twice gone over 580 attempts in a season and the Patriots should have a better defense next year. I also think his 8.5 YPA from last year is unsustainable as he’s only gone over 8 twice in his career. The other time he did that was 2007, when Josh McDaniels...

Wes Welker is not worth what he wants

Via The Victory Formation  |  May 18, 2012
Last year, the Patriots offered Wes Welker a lot of money for a slot possession receiver. This year, they franchised him and he signed the one-year tender for $9.5 million. When he received his offer a year it ago, it was for 2-years and $16 million, so when you think about it, he is getting [...]

Patriots WR Wes Welker Says Contract Talks Are Getting Worse

Via GridironFans.com  |  May 17, 2012
Wes Welker recently signed his one-year franchise tender and that would seem to indicate that the relationship between the New England Patriots and Welker is improving, but that's not the case. Welker is further away than ever from a long-term deal. "There have been talks, but nothing that's brightened anything at all," Welker told Karen Guregian of the Boston Herald...

Wes Welker Signs $9.5M Franchise Tender

Via Sports Blog Net  |  May 16, 2012
Many movie moments could symbolize Wes Welker's decision to sign his $9.5 million franchise tender Tuesday and return to the Patriots for the 2012-13 season. Perhaps the Hulk destroying enemy ships in The Avengers. Or Dean Portman showing up at halftime of the JV-Varsity game at the end of Mighty Ducks 3.

Examining How Bill Belchick and Doc Rivers Talk With The Media About Injuries

Via Boston Sports Media Watch  |  May 16, 2012
They are both among the longest-tenured head coaches in their respective leagues. They have both won conference and league championships. They both seemingly manage to get more out of their teams than the roster talent would indicate. But when it comes to dealing with the media, Bill Belichick and Doc Rivers could not be more different. Or are they more alike than a surface examination...

Between rock and a hard place: Wes Welker had no choice but to sign franchise tag

Via 60 Max Power O  |  May 18, 2012
Wes Welker said Tuesday that he was taking a leap of faith in signing the franchise tender. However, it was more of a push from the New England Patriots front office. Passing camps start soon and Welker knows all to well that if he's out of sight, he's out of mind. In the 2012 off-season, the Patriots restocked their diminished wide receiver position.
