Eric Wilbur with some mild stupidity that the Globe editors gave an even stupider headline:
http://www.boston.com/sports/column...town_where_the_quarter.html?p1=feature_sec_hp
A Patriots preseason game got higher ratings than a Red Sox playoff game a couple years ago. I'm sorry this is not just a Brady town, it's a Brady/Gronk/Edelman/Belichick/Kraft/next man up town.
Wilbur alludes to the gap between the sports' popularity, but this is not a passing fad. The popularity of the game of football and of baseball are going in opposite directions, even in spite of the bumbling fool in charge of the NFL.

Maybe Boston feels more like a Brady town these days than, but celebrity crushes -- no matter how strong -- can only last so long before you end up back at the doorstep of the one you truly, deeply love.
This might not be the year to expect a parade from the Red Sox, but that doesn’t make us love them any less.
Whenever Brady walks away, will we possibly ever say the same about the Patriots?
