Those aren’t necessarily contradictory positions, though. There is equally compelling evidence that the NFL had no choice but to do *something* in the wake of Spygate, Deflategate, and Othergates because there was so much available public evidence. The conspiracy lies in the reluctant and lenient punishment ultimately…

true. its not like kraft has any of position of power among league owners either

You’re right but don’t you think, at best, the refs behaved inappropriately in yesterday’s game?

I don’t buy it. It’s in the best interests of the league to have the largest media markets possible in the Super Bowl and London is way bigger than Boston.

We hate you because you are 53 years old and you say things like,

One of those kinds with seeds in it too.

They could play the Al-Qaeda All-stars in Kabul on the 4th of July and I’d be pulling for Al-Qaeda. Fuck them in the ass with a family sized jar of Smuckers.

But if you manage to get ahead of the opposition by the end of the third quarter, it’s absolutely essential that you stay ahead of them at the end of the fourth quarter. Too many teams fail to do that, and they’re sorry for it later.

The fact that people get paid for this kind of analysis is Maddening.

Some defendants settle in order to avoid the expense and uncertainty of a trial, while still believing that the allegations are unfounded. (In cases where the defendant’s insurance company is paying for all the legal fees and expenses and any settlement amount, and even chooses the law firm, the insurance company is…

False: They do what their lawyers tell them to.

This doesn’t seem to apply in this case, but I think we should be careful not to assume that because someone has settled a sexual harassment suit, they are guilty of sexual harassment. Suits settle for a variety of reasons, many unconnected with actual guilt or innocence.

Translation: Tom Brady ate a strawberry and now he has full-blown hand AIDS.

Oh there’s nothing questionable about Gronk’s chlamydia.

Next Monday: “ What a move by Bellichick to reactivate 75 year old 4 foot 10 inch Doug Flutie who went on to throw for 450 yards and 4 touchdowns.”

“Early in my career I tried using a glove ... It didn’t go too well. I think it’s better without.”

Just drink some water, ya dummy. Why didn’t ya think of that?

Any Pats fan who says they aren’t even the slightest bit worried about a vaguely injured Brady going into a playoff game against a team run by Tom Coughlin is lying.

I’m always reminded of that old adage “the path to hell is paved with good intentions.” Just because the mom did truly love her daughter and wanted to protect her doesn’t mean the decisions she made were any less harmful. It seems like a lot of parents would rather try to shape the world around their kids so they…

It should also be pointed out that ALL of our nuclear arsenal's hardware is specifically designed to shrug off EMPs that would fry most equipment. Russia's too. One of the reasons they're really hard to upgrade.
