I think this perception of Boston is outdated. I can’t really think of a time in the last ~20 years (my life as a Boston sports fan) when fans really harassed one of their own. Nomar took some shit but he deserved it and he ended up getting a World Series ring anyway.

But but but every Pats fan is a bandwagoner!

Again, Butch! Spew more bitterness! It’s only 11am, I need more of you pussies complaining.

Calling others “sore winners” on a blog plastered with the sorest loser shit in sports is fucking beautiful. Keep it coming, you rejects of real sports journalism.

Suck it, Barry! If this shyte blog lasts another year I’ll be back to taunt you after Brady’s 6th championship, too.

Nobody wants to hear this, but the reason this shit happens is that guys who coach football for a living are not that smart.

In a couple more years he’ll be assaulting cabbies.

I know this is sports and dumb hyperbole is how we talk about sports, but as somebody who’s going to lose my healthcare when this ACA repeal gets done, this type of comment seems so appallingly tone-deaf. It’s a game.

Shit you’re right.

Have faith Tim, there’s a chance that Brady will be reborn as a mediocre writer for a dumpy sports blog in the future life.

Hey everyone just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you all for hating my team so much. Your bitter tears make this so, so much sweeter. You fucking bitches.

Ray Lewis hates the Patriots. He slams them every chance he gets. I don’t understand anything about this video.

Wow, this thread sure is shedding some light on why our military is such a fucking disaster.

I’m a lifelong Patriots fan and I totally agree.

A Gawker Media blog calling another outlet a rag is just too much for me on this particular day.

The answer is three pieces of cheese. At least two different types.

People have much weirder zen hobbies. Did you know that some people lace up a pair of sneakers and just go jog around the neighborhood for an hour every day? I mean that’s fucking weird.

Hang on, so now we’re complaining about pro athletes NOT talking about politics?

Exactly - and people probably still call you a bandwagoner, right?

I thought it an odd headline as well, and also was a bit confused by the use of the word “pettiness” in the first sentence. I don’t know what pettiness she’s bitching about there, but perhaps that’s just because I live in western New York where Rex Ryan has elevated pettiness to a new level.
