He's funny as hell on Twitter (and probably in real life). I much prefer following him to most athletes and movie stars who just have a publicist run their Twitter.

I could carer less but it is a big deal if the Kraft's decide they don't want to give 50 million to a player who represents the team in this way. Spikes is a force in the middle and i would hate to see him go but stuff like this is on ly going to make a deal less likely.

I mention this once in a while here, but since there are many newbies lately: Former Pats O-lineman Rich Ohrnbegrer has probably the funniest Twitter account of all professional athletes. Worth a look during the holiday season:

I wish you could decide what your point is.

Am I irate with people trying to make this a story or actually being offended by this? Yes.

Did I say they don't have that right? No. But your first post was defending their right to do so which I'm in agreement with. They do have that right.

Rights exist to protect unpopular things, not popular ones. I get extremely annoyed by the Westboro Baptist Church but they still have the right to say their bull****.

I've already decided what my point was. What I didn't understand was the intention of your OP, which should have been obvious after the response.

Have we really gotten to the point in our society that we can offend people by making a joke about a ficticious character?

Just keep seperating the ball from holder Mr spikes!

There's a big difference between the overall depth and content on a message board and the 140 character blurbs spouted off on twitter. That being said most of my content on here is no different than a twitter blurb...
