Default TomASSe suspended or just on a twinky binge?

BLOG UPDATE: I’m not going to be writing for the next week, so there won’t be a ton of activity here at the Point After. Karen Guregian will have you covered if anything major happens. Otherwise, look for Karen’s updates next Wednesday from OTAs.

If it was a suspension, they would want to publicize it, no?

A Mansfield native and Tufts grad, he grew up during the Steve Grogan era and is coming around on this Brady guy, even though he'll always have a soft spot for No. 14 and his neck roll.
Speaking of neck roll, does Tomasse have more chins than a Hong Kong phone book, or what?

Seriously, I'm glad he's taking some time off. I've made some mistakes in my lifetime - some pretty embarrassing and significant... some in the public eye.

Tomasse let his zeal to get the story first get the best of him and it hurt a lot of people and the team and his paper etc... his editor hasn't exactly taken any bullets for him either, and ultimately its the editor's responsibility.

So I'm all for Tomasse taking some time to get some perspective on all of this. It's not the end of the world. I'd love to say there was no damage done but there was - but he and we all need to move on and put this behind us.

Same here. If he'd been a little more apologetic, I'd be willing to grant him absolution. As it stands right now...he's got to grovel a little bit more IMO.

Still--I watched him on CSN's Sports Tonight a few weeks ago, and watching his eyes light up when he talked about Papi hitting an HR on his birthday...he was like a little kid. Hard to hate that.
Hopefully this will teach him some stuff and make him a better person.

I wouldn't forgive him if the story was true. He intentionally tried to torpedo his persecuted,worn out, home town team when they needed distractions least.

****** him and the horse he rode in on.

Sounds like one of those "You need a few days, son. Take off the rest of the week {.... and get your ***** together}" vacations.

Be glad to put Tomasse behind us
... but then he can't still be writing at us.

If he is,
he isn't behind us.

Out! Out, damned spot!
