A few apologies are in order
Posted by John Tomase at 9:14 am
Reader reaction has been strong to today’s explanation of where we went wrong with our Rams walkthrough story on Feb. 1. One addendum — there are people I need to personally apologize to.
I must apologize to the Patriots in general and the Kraft family in particular. My story contributed to much of the heat the organization has taken over the last three months, and my hope is that the message of their exoneration eventually receives the same attention as the presumption of their guilt.
Secondly, I owe an apology to head coach Bill Belichick, his staff, and every player from that 2001 team and the two more Super Bowl champs since. They did not deserve to have their accomplishments falsely called into question, and I plan to apologize in person to as many of them as I can.
Thirdly, I owe an apology to Patriots fans, over 1,000 of whom have e-mailed since Feb. 2 to express their displeasure at the story’s timing and content. I recognize the pall that story cast over Super Bowl Sunday and it’s something I regret deeply.

I'm sure it was over 1,000 who emailed him. He probably missed many times more than that due to a full mailbox or him not accepting emails.
He and Herald Management had more than TWO DAYS to write the explanation piece and they needed to be further shamed into writing an apology addendum by the resultant firestorm of the public?
Shouldn't that have been the FIRST thing written in his "explanation" piece?????
My God, it's true - - - the Herald IS where all the high school dropouts get jobs from their politically connected Uncles.
I know there are alot of people saying they will never read the Herald because of this story, but I can't imagine spending one moment of my day caring to read ANYTHING by people who need diagrams to tie their own shoe laces.

AUGH!!! This, only after many dozens of respondents this morning pointed out that his missive contained no apology. Further proof that this guy's mindset is not to be trusted.
