I'm familiar with both the area where he was "kidnapped" as well as the circumstances around most muggings on Oahu. When I heard his story, my bullshit sensor was off the charts.

The answer is Teddy's.

You know how people say America would be better off if we cut Florida loose? The same thing goes for the 128-to-495 (and slightly beyond) ring around Boston. These people have the thickest Wahlberg-inspired" Boston accents" despite spending exactly no time in the city except for their yearly pilgrimage to Fenway…

Belichick did something similar a few years ago: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/eticket/s…

Where was Lennay Kekua last night?

You may not think the comparison to Lynch is apt but Westbrook may not agree. Their motives might be different, but that doesn't mean Westbrook isn't trying to emulate Lynch.

Copley always seems to have some international demonstration or another (à la Arab Spring). There's a pretty regular stream of groups protesting in or outside the State House every day. City Hall Plaza seems like a pretty clear opportunity. Harvard Square, even?

Look, I'm with you on shaming the EEI crowd every time they deserve it. Lou deserves it here and D&C is a daily exercise in casual, dogwhistle racism (I sometimes wonder if the average 495-to-128 commuter needs three or four snide snickers from those worthlessly smug cretins before he can take his morning dump).

On the flip side, Wilbon's "black man respecting higher education" soapbox routine was cringeworthy.

Aside: Rusty Hardin also represented Roger Clemens.

The reverse angle showing Chara knocking him on right on the button was effing glorious.

Agreed, but taking that a step farther: the Canadian (and American) media would have made that exact case much more loudly than they have.

I don't like to rely on this logic, but it's undeniably true here: if Hasek were born in Canada he'd be universally acknowledged as one of the three best ever.

I could see if he were whining about the Patriots declaring Vereen ineligible while declaring Solder an eligible TE (not even sure that is legal), but he's complaining that Belichick knew the rule book better than he did.

Know what else is deceptive? Play action passes, screen plays, flea flickers, and draw runs. His whining about the Patriots using a legal formation is exactly what it looks like.

I don't really know what to make of this routine, but did it look to anyone else like he was ready to cry during the questioning? I kind of felt bad for him.

Sure, unless you look at the picture.

Resident (singular). But continue painting a metro area of 3M+ people based on anecdotal ramblings of AARP members.

Seriously. Brouwer has a freaking canon.

Not to defend a really dumb way to ask a question, but on the same day your coach is fired and your previous coach said outright that you're hard to coach and that you won't get it done for your team, it's a fair point to get at one way or another. If this were an an elite NBA player, blogs like Deadspin would be…
