Bonus video of the day: Patriots yo-yo Ross Ventrone stars in the Mayne Event
The Patriots are going to the Super Bowl, and much of the attention will be on that. But allow us to divert a little bit. On yesterday’s pre-game show on ESPN, the much-anticipated Mayne Event feature starring Ross Ventrone aired. The human yo-yo, who has been cut and signed more than 20 times, comically sets up Occupy Foxboro with a tent and everything. Yeah, it’s pretty funny...

Ross Ventrone saga continues . . . yup, the Pats safety is gone again. But for how long?
The Patriots cut second-year safety Ross Ventrone. As you know, we’ve already said that a few times this season. And we may do it again - and again - if he’s brought back in some capacity, which is usually the case.
The human yo-yo has been bouncing between the 53-man roster, the practice squad, and the street. If our math is correct, that’s the 20th time Ventrone has been...

Patriots safety Ross Ventrone explains life as a human yo-yo
It’s become a running joke that each week the Patriots’ transactions are sure to include Ross Ventrone. The second-year safety could be signed to the practice squad, promoted to the active roster or released. But almost without fail, Ventrone is sure to find his name on the transaction wire each week.
Ventrone has 21 career transactions, including 15 since Aug. 10. While it...

Why Patriots S Ross Ventrone is an amateur when it comes transactions…
At this point, it’s a little funny. The Patriots, on a seemingly weekly basis, promote, cut, and/or activate safety Ross Ventrone. They did so again today, putting him on the practice squad and cutting Josh Victorian.
People have asked if this is a record for transactions, since he’s been involved in ‘em on a non-stop basis. The answer? Turns out, he’s not even close. Compared...

The New England Patriots waive safety Ross Ventrone
The Patriots have waived 25-year old safety Ross Ventrone. Ventrone played in 4 games for the Patriots this year and he had 1 tackle. This is no loss for the Patriots and that’s really saying something considering just how bad the secondary has been for them so far this year.
