It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Felger blaming the Pats for the ESPN story - "the Patriots started this with their outing of numerous league officials"....wow...in his mind, it's "only" the NFL firing back at the Patriots
The problem is that if Kraft WERE to do that, he could lose the team. He could be forced to sell much like the Clippers owner was forced to sell in the NBA.
So, what would you have him do? Please expound for everyone..
How does he lose the team by defending the wall against espn & Si, which is what I said explicitly?
Here's a clue, espn & SI are not the NFL and are not NFL employees.
What "numerous league officials" did the Patriots out??
According to Felger: Nash, Pash, Gardi, and a few others. Seriously, he is spinning it like the Patriots have fought tooth and nail throughout this entire ordeal (except of course, the draft picks and fines).
Greg Bedard then blames Belichick and the Patriots for lack of transparency, opining that everything would be hunky dory if he/they had come clean years ago...
Felger and Bedard...yup not listening to that garbage.According to Felger: Nash, Pash, Gardi, and a few others. Seriously, he is spinning it like the Patriots have fought tooth and nail throughout this entire ordeal (except of course, the draft picks and fines).

It is strange that 2 "Massholes" could have such dramatically different perspectives on entire populations. I traveled domestically for more than 6 years, spending weeks at a time in almost every major city. With just a few exceptions, the vast majority of my interactions with the "locals" were positive, and I have made several life long friends in my travels.Same here. Been to every major city many times for business all over North America. We have a stigma and we win. And many are tired of it.
Boston is not the friendliest city.

Because, to defend the team, he has to say things the league could feel are detrimental, particularly to the league. Pretty sure that is covered under the owner clause as a "No No"..
We socialize a little different in Boston. Our busy lifestyle tends to make us less open to social interaction with strangers. We also tend to have a thick skin and a quick, biting wit. It is these things that make us seem less friendly to residents of many other cities. Try going to places like Portland OR, Madison WI or Pensacola FL. The vast majority of people are very friendly, and strangers are much more likely to make eye contact. Cities like Boston, NYC and Chicago seem cold by comparison.People often don't have much to say after you're run them over. Don't think that "not friendly" is much of a factor here.
Felger and Bedard...yup not listening to that garbage.
So, let me get this straight.. Because the NFL took Brady to court in an effort to make sure the penalty stuck for something that Brady didn't actually do, it's the Patriots fault that the league's incompetence was put on display?
