LOL at Bart Scott Rant - Page 5 - New England Patriots Forums

Scott is a barely controlled rabid dog who is the player you either LOVE when he's on your team or HATE when he's on any other team. I get that.

But at some level, pro sports should be about entertainment, not life-or-death for the fans. And after a decade of more of watching the league office trying to strip all the fun out of football, I find this refreshing as a fan. It takes me back to the glory days (for me) of the 70s-80s when I absolutely loathed the Raiders but couldn't wait to see what they would do next.

The fact that all this stuff is giving Goodell fits just makes me happy. Yes, it can get tiring if overdone, but I think the NFL needs a bit of this and it was long overdue.

Now you can resume hating Bart and the Jets. I could ask no different.

I don't especially like Scott. Not because of this rant, but because he generally talks 10x more game than he plays. Having said that, he kinda took a shot at his own offense there...

Bart Scott is a certified idiot. Seriously, I don't think the guy is capable of carrying on a conversation for more than 2 minutes from what I've seen of him.

I like to watch football, not pro wrestling. Football is a sport. pro wrestling is not.
