What to expect from Pioli: Explaining the "Patriot Way"

[OnTheWarpath15]

Regarding picking the "right guys" and how they fit into the chemistry of the organization:

They were a close team, something Christian Fauria noticed as soon as he arrived in Foxboro. "It wasn't like this in Seattle," he says. "I'll use Traingin Camp as an example. There was a serving tray where they has the salad, and it was kind of like a divider in the room. There were tables on both sides. I'm telling you, all the white guys were on one side, and the black guys were on the other. Now, I'm not saying it was prejudice or a race issue, but it always seemed to happen that way."

"I don't see that here at all. You see these domino games in the locker room? You have guys like Marc Edwards and Mike Vrabel saying 'slap the domino, mother****er' just like everyone else. Seriously, I think it's a credit to Scott [Pioli]. He really brings good guys in. And I felt that right away. All the guys have the same emphasis on winning."
