The really shocking thing about all of this is that by firing those 2 guys, Chivas reduced their home attendance average by 30%.

Apparently the vetting process is more rigorous for entry-level new college graduates than it is for running a major intercollegiate sports program.
Well, in my opinion, in order for something to be a feud,
Alright....the related articles within the article are REALLY starting to piss me off.
when a player who plays a role gets a disease that, in order to stay alive, requires him to no longer meet the requirements to play that role, that player is no longer a valid option to play on that team.
Well because he is paid for a certain kind of performance and he is not able to perform. If I work as a tailor and lose both my arms in an accident my work cannot fire me because it doesn't like people without arms. It can TOTALLY fire me because I can no longer do my job. See the difference?
He was a DE on the Pats because he was 6'1 and 315 pounds. Now, he has a disease that, in order to manage it most effectively, probably prohibits him from being 315 pounds. This isn't some Joe Schmoe sitting a desk who just needs to check his insulin and can afford to lose some weight, this is a guy whose livelihood…

Of course they have a Twitter board. Fuck me.
To be fair they cut to the Toronto crowd after each Maple Leafs goal too...

Of course, NESN has been doing that all series. But don't let facts get in the way of a good story, Deadspin......
Haven't won the Cup (or even been to the finals) since 1967. No playoffs since 2004. Down 3-1 in the series to a better team (Cup winner from 2 years ago) they take a 4-1 lead with 11 minutes to go, and promptly become the first team EVER in the NHL to lose a game 7 after having a 3-goal lead in the third. Meanwhile…
Greatest fucking Game 7 I've ever seen. Homerism? Yes. Absolute amazeballs game? Fuck yes.
Hey, Deadspin, love ya, mean it. But fuck off.
Wait, what? Is this about the two seconds of footage showing the Toronto crowd after the tying goal?
