God I hate the way they shit on Tuukka, who is definitely the best Boston goalie of my lifetime (so since the mid-80s). He has slumps sometimes but the man can play and always bounces back, just as he did this year after the rocky start.
This town and region, man, the negativity is part of the sports fan identity here. Tuuka Rask might be the best goalie ever for the Bruins, but all you hear about is how he sucks and should be traded and the backup is definitely better. Kyrie Irving is a star player, with an interesting young team around him (that is…
You’re right about that. I don’t live near Boston, but most of the national sports media that I followed praised the Red Sox all season long.
You must have missed that WEEI wants to turn the whole game into one big sports radio talk show now. There’s no escaping it.
People who think talk radio matters are old men, angry men, and media people who live in the bubble. Which of course is not a small group. But for the rest of us it simply doesn’t even exist.
FAHK YEW, YA PRICK!
Great to see this here and in BP as well. I’m a little more charitable to the nattering nabobs of negativism than you are, I guess; the Sox did flop in the playoffs after winning the division the previous two years, and David Price is a yutz, and also the Sox were so good last year that they couldn’t believe it, and…
The sports media columnist for the Boston Globe probably knows this
My 10th birthday was during the WS in 1975. I went to game 6 as a present. I was asleep when fisk hit the homerun and was awakened by the screaming. They lost that series. I was in a bar celebrating having just turned 21 when the ball went through Buckner’s legs in 86'. Someone through a beer mug through the TV it was…
Being great is what Boston pro sports teams do. Why the hate? The Knicks and Jets will never win another title. They have the revenue streams. They just don’t have the ownership and front offices to make it all work. Hate all you want. Boston is a lab on how to win big in pro sports. Some cities have to excel at…
Guess what, you don’t have to listen to WEEI, pre and post-game shows, and the general Boston sports media bullshit. It’s much more enjoyable without them. Deadspin, the Athletic, Fangraphs, even the Ringer will give you much better info and insight.
As someone who lives in Florida, I’m convinced the media is making up half this crap. Why would Bob Kraft even get a tug job at a massage parlor in a strip mall? Couldn’t he easily fly to Russia and have prostitutes pee on a bed instead?
I sooooo cannot wait to hear the Thursday/Sunday/Monday night monologues that emerge from this. I’m sure Goodell has the finest writers on the planet twisting their brains into pretzels to figure out a narrative that has Kraft coming out squeaky clean. Guessing it will read something like this:
What are the odds that Trump has frequented that establishment? 2-1? They should dust for his fingerprints and then run a black light through every room looking for pee stains.
If they decide freely, sure, but these women were trafficked.
Why didn’t he just ask his buddy Donald to dial him up a porn star or something.
The article makes the point that many of these women were there against their wills and had no choice at all.
Prostitutes? You’d think the most powerful man in Massachusetts could score some strange for free in any bar he walks in to.
Time you enjoy wasting, is not wasting time.
I'm tired of "No life" posts on articles like this. You don't get to decide what makes life valuable - posting on Kotaku is hardly a valuable contribution to society is it? No. People do what makes them happy, fuck what other people think.
