So, yeah, I would say the article had some effect.
I cited very specific examples of things that happened in the game and supporters of this crazy theory say it was just a sense of malaise caused by the article that caused the team to lose.

Again, so was Rodney thinking about Tomase when he tried to defend Tyree's catch, making him miss? Just answer me that.

It's about freaking time they came out with an apology. Now who's going to pay for this? Tomase is probably hearing footsteps right now...

I'm not going to knock them for apologizing since that is what I have been calling them to do. Putting it on the front page was a nice tough. Doing it several months ago would have been preferable.

I still think Tomase need to personally apologize, but since I haven't read the herald since this has happened, maybe he has... I'm going to go see.

I would still prefer they publically prostrate themselves before BB and apologize in person, but hey - you can't have everything.

I guess the ban is lifted for me, but the hurt feelings haven't gone away.

You must not have read today's hackjob yet then. Don't bother. Keep the ban going.

Kraft did say the team's prep was taken away the day before because of this crap..

With that being said, game prep had nothing to do with tyre catch, o line blocking, and so and so forth, the giants were the better team that day.

Did you guys see the headline on the front page of TODAY'S Herald? "Not So Fast, Pats." Unvelievable! It makes yesterday's "apology" look like a bad joke.

Nope. Editors write headlines. That headline came from the top.

People should quit letting the management of the Herald off the hook. Today (along with Tony Maz) was orchestrated.

it certainly explains why Tomase is not FIRED. Don't you love it when you see Tomase's picture and his name on "Not so fast, Pats" article.? As long as they can get attention and improve their business, they will do anything even though their work is crappy. No integrity or decency or professional journalism. These characters are simply gone nowsday.

When I look at his picture and work, it reminds me that we need to eat less and exercise more in addition to having good education and manner.
