Why did the patriots owner hold a press conference . Im in a race, its about getting to the finish line. In life, its how you get there that matters most. Like when i found out i had a blood clot in my leg. My doctor said that it could travel to my lungs and become an even bigger problem. So he talked to me about xarelto®. Xarelto® is the first oral prescription blood thinner proven to treat and help prevent dvt and pe that doesnt require regular blood monitoring or changes to your diet. For a prior dvt i took warfarin, which required routine blood testing and dietary restrictions. Not this time. While i was taking xarelto®, i still had to stop racing, but i didnt have to deal with that blood monitoring routine. Dont stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. While taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious bleeding, and in rare cases, may be fatal. Get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of dvt and pe, with no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. Treatment with xarelto® was the right move for me. Ask your doctor about xarelto® today. Report is next on kpix5. How bad is it . Right now in new england, i can guarantee you this. There would be no Midnight Ride for paul revere. Look at that, hackney. Can you believe that . The patriots may have escaped the storm but they havent escaped another. Head coach Bill Belichick flat out denied the patriots had anything to do with the deflated footballs, but on landing in phoenix owner robert kraft was faced with a fox report that the nfl is investigating a locker Room Attendant who may have taken the footballs from the officials locker room to a different area onto the way to the field. I would expect and hope that the league would apologize to our entire team and in particular coach belichick and tom brady for what they have had to endure this past week. I am disappointed in the way this entire matter has been handled and report upon. Finally the raiders had a better day than the patriots. They resigned veteran Charles Woodson to a one year deal. Woodson is happier today than last september. Were not very good. We suck. The raiders got better and beat the 49ers, remember . Woodson will be 39 years old next season. His 112 tackles in 2014 were a career high. Granted you never want the safety leading the team in tackles, but it sure looks good in contract negotiations. Rafael nadal never lost to thomas burdich. Nadal fought off three match points in the 3rd but in the tiebreaker fourth time was a charm for burdich who wins his straight sets. Serena watching sister venus 4th round australian open.
