Default Ah! Bob Ryan is trashing the Pats, Belichick, and the fans

Some of his gems from his appears on Felger's radio show:

"I get queasy thinking of the tuck rule"

"This whole thing started on a sham (tuck rule)"

"The Patriots fans failed for not caring about Belichick cheating"

"I will never feel good about the Patriots wins because I want to win right"

He basically spent five minutes trashing Belichick and the fans for supporting him. He feels the Pats fans have no morals because they never even questioned Belichick. He feels the Pats' win in the first Super Bowl was fraudulent because they won on a bad rule.

Bob can't admit he is wrong about his earlier moronic column, so he just keeps plugging away with nonsense.
Tuck rule !!!
Do a little better than that Bob.

Bob's right, it was a bad call. The call should have been roughing the passer, Pats ball 15 yards from the spot of the foul. That said, I'll settle for the tuck rule call.

You know, I really used to like Bob Ryan. I would read anything he wrote, watch shows like Sports Reporters when he was on and always listen to whatever radio show he is on. However, over the last few years, he has grown old and tired. It is sad. It is like watching a great athlete who should have retired two years earlier hang on for one more run that is never going to happen.

Come on people, it's much better to win a championship by BUYING your way to it.

Sox and Schilling + $200 million dollar payroll, or Celtics and their sham trades for Garnett!

Ryan is intellectually bankrupt on this one.

Ryan is a basketball writer first and a baseball writer second and not a football writer. I think he hates that the Patriots have become nearly as popular as the Red Sox and even with the NBA Championship the Celts still trail a distant third in this town.

I always thought Bob Ryans writing was annoying. He had this holly than thou attitude because he felt he had been on the beat so long he was entitled to this attitude and he wrote about the Boston misery much better. He has no clue what to say now that the teams are successful. I probably haven't read more than 10 Ryan articles since highschool.

Bob Ryan is a sensationalist, pure and simple. He'll say anything to get attention.

To be fair to the Sawx, they've "only" spent $130M-$150M on payroll each year since 2004, as opposed to the Steinbrenners, who've spent well over a billion dollars on their zero championships this decade.
