I'm afraid of people that can't spell "fanatic" and then use it as a screen name.

Maybe they found out about when he played that "joke" on his old roommates GF that could have maimed her.

And in what world is Peter King a Pats homer? He is a Steeler homer if anything, and brought up Spygate EVERY WEEK in his MMQB article until week 12 or 13.

You impugned my honesty and asked for a link, I provided one. That same story was reported by other media folks as well. Around here sounds like unless the Globe reports it straight from the Pats' mouth it's not believed.

On the Globe's scurrilous character hatchet job, and not to make too much light of it, but "could have maimed her"? With a blender blade? Not sure what kind of blenders you use, but I think the word "maimed"'s"s a little hyperbolic don't you? The blender blades I've seen would have a tough time cutting through butter.

On King, he grew up in northwestern CT, rooting for the Sox and, from his writings I'd guess the Pats. He loves the Pats, Manning and Favre--every column has at least one of the above. Interestingly, he's been pretty even-handed on Spygate, I must admit, but he normally just gushes over Belichick, Kraft and Brady.

Be afraid--be very afraid.

I suppose if the same thing had happened, but the Bills were the team in question, you would be saying the exact same things. I highly doubt it.

Look at the website in your browser address bar. It's www.PATSFANS.com, not www.footballfans.com. If most of us are pro-Patriots...well, gee, what the hell did you expect? And why come here, anyway? Do you think you are going to change our minds? Or do you just like to be the anti establishment "look at me my opinion is different" guy?

Oh,and at least one of his columns has one thing about the Pats, Favre, or Manning? Well, what did you expect, they were the 3 main stories for the last 5 years of the NFL (Pats dynasty, Manning's records and SB win, Favre's resurgence this year). And since when did rooting for the Sox have anything to do with being a Pats fan?

Lock him in a room for a month with a TV playing football analysis by Mark Schlereth, John Clayton and Merril Hoge in an infinite loop.

I'm actually a Bills fan, so if the Bills had done the things the Pats are accused of, I'd be ashamed of it, not suspending my disbelief to support them no matter what anyone else said (rational or irrational).

I come here to talk football and to inject a little itty bit of objectivity into the discussion. It was a poll, I gave my answer and was attacked for it and responded. No more, no less.

PS On King, read his columns and you're left with little doubt that he grew up a Pats fan--on your question of Sox and Pats, isn't a little obvious that most Boston fans root for both teams?

I want to know if I can drive the dump truck.

And by the way, what's this doing in the main forum?

The other two are tools, but Schlereth is not all that bad.

So what I said was "attacking" you, but what Matt Walsh did to his roommates gf was "just a joke"? At least be consistent. And why would you be "ashamed" about the Bills breaking a rule and getting fined? The Pats broke a rule, got punished, end of story. Except for the rest of America who won't stop babbling about it like it was some covert operation to undermine the whole league.

Let's see; I can believe Jimmy Johnson, Sean Salisbury, Keyshawn Johnson, Bill Parcells, Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, ect about the whole thing not being a big deal. OR, I can believe footballfanetic and be "ashamed". Call me crazy, but I will go with the guys who used to be in the NFL as opposed to what you and the mediots (Peter King, Pete Prisco, Tomase, Easterbrook, Matt Fish, Dr. Z, all the dummies at the NY Post, NY Daily News, NY Times, and NY Newsday...those are who I can think of off the top of my head) have to say.

Sorry for "attacking" you, BTW. I am suprised you haven't flown down to Jersey to hunt me down after the disgusting things I was saying.
