Give The Pats an A+ with their handling of the Randy Moss situation

It is official now, the Randy Moss era in New England has come to an end, and to a certain extent, an ugly end.  Unfortunately, it was the way it had to end, but at the same time, we must praise the Pats for allowing it to end that way, and not letting the situation escalate and have him leave in an even uglier fashion (see Manny Ramirez).  Instead, Moss left with nothing but good things to say for the team and coach Bill Belichick, and the coach with nothing but good things to say for Randy after the fact.  It had come to a point where it was necessary for both sides to go their separate ways, and it was able to be done by getting a third rounder in return, as well as sending one of the NFL's premier deep threats to the NFC.  So to those who criticize the Pats for getting so little in return, the alternative most likely Moss being released, and possibly going to Miami, Indy, Houston, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, the Jets, or another AFC playoff contender, which would have made the path to Dallas, or the playoffs for that matter, that much harder.
