Let's not get all stressy about Bedard. He's never pretended to be a Pats-supporting writer, and we shouldn't be surprised that he just wants to shut the debate down now.
He's generally an intelligent writer who's gone out of his way to learn about X's and O's. Goes to coaching clinics and that sort of thing. So when he goes on the radio and talks about the team, he's better than most of the others out there.
Like all the national media writers, he has 31 other teams and the league office itself yapping in his ear about how the Patriots are cheaters and should be collectively castrated. We shouldn't be surprised that he's drunk the Kool Aid - everyone else has. That's what the Wells Report was designed to achieve...and it's worked.
The appeal will be turned down. Brady will go to court. And if/when he wins, the narrative changes. Until then, all we can do is wait.
