For myself and I assume for many, yesterday (his WEEI appearance) once and for all revealed Peter King's true colors. I have not been a fan of his for quite some time, but his recent reporting on the Patriots has been the definition of unprofessional and unethical reporting.
He has made it his own personal mission to be the man who brings down Bill Belichick.
This is not Greg Easterbrook or even Collingsworth. No, instead, Peter King has earned much more respect than those guys and actually probably does have the influence needed to really tarnish Bill Belichick and put an asterik next to the Patriots' accomplishments.
However, whatever respect Peter King has earned over the years has been completely diminished in recent weeks for his tabloid-esque coverage of "spy-gate".
I think as Pats fans, we should let SI.com know that we will not support this kind of reporting, particularly from a guy who, for the most part, is taken quite seriously.
I've let SI.com know that I will be boycotting Peter King's articles from now on. I hope other fans who are as displeased with this guy let their opinions be known as well. I will also not be posting in any threads about Peter King or his articles from now on (well, besides this one ) because its a waste of time.
If anyone knows other addresses, please let me know.

I already boycotted him for the season after that stupid column he wrote saying BB should write a groveling apology letter to that twit Goodell and the rest of the western world for all of his enormous sins.
I don't agree that he has that much influence in NFL circles and he is, in my Pats-biased opinion, eroding his own credibility rather than BB's. It will be interesting to see if he continues on his mission this week after apparently receiving quite a pasting at the hands of Dale & Holley & Pats fans yesterday on WEEI.

Where does one write to SI??? WHO is teh one who is important there?? Is there an ombudsman who overlooks the writers?? Is it possible to in some way do something a bit more aggressive than that? A way to boycott products Si pushes?? (Frankly..the economic thing always hits home more than others....)

Dale & Holley could've been harder on him. I'd love to see the Big Show, well, Fred and Steve, have a shot at him because they would love to expose this guy.
While I'd like to think he doesn't have a lot of influence, I still have to put him above other Pats-conspiracy theorists out there. King could damage BB's reputation, and unfairly so, so I think Pats fans should spring to action a little bit and let King's employers know that they won't stand for it. Will it do anything? Probably not, but no harm in making one's opinion known.

I bet he will still be leading the cheating chorus on Inside the NFL next week.
He said yesterday on WEEI that he was "offended" by what BB did. I have no idea what is going on in his head.

One is the sports related feedback and the other is the "write to the editor" thing. Only two links I could find. If anyone else finds a better one, please let me know.

yes he did...and D&H missed teh knockout punch on that one......(I had e-mailed them about asking King if he thought the practice of avoiding the 15 second coach to QB blackout was also cheating and what he thought about that. It was in Sando's column how MANY teams somehow technologically have a large advantage by NOT being blacked out for those 15 seconds...clearly THAT is a very large advantage!!) By asking King about that it puts him on the spot......He says he IS offended by it and one can throw the fact that he hasn't looked into it or mentioned it at all and one can see the hypocrisy of THAT. If he poh-poohs it, one can say that he doesn't undesrtand football at all..an dhaving a large advantage LIKE that is far more cheating than anything the Patriots did.
D&H failed..and had the opportunity...THAT question to me tells me where King is.....if he is as outrahed about that fine..but his actions do NOT back that up..if he is NOT at all outraged, then it's all an anti-Patriot vendetta...
A swing and a miss D&H struckout....
Boycott Peter King
