"Americans love Good vs evil.."

"Americans love Good vs. Evil. Remember that Star Wars thing? On Nov. 4 in the NFL, a moral clash will grip the nation. Easterbrook"

ESPN is as guilty as the writer for promoting this stuff. Who knows maybe their editor came up with the idea to write such a piece.

i wish the pats or kraft could go after ESPN, for defamation or something...i dont want a suit, just the threat of one, a threat capable of getting eastbrook fired, and ESPN a little more serious

I think fans across the country are starting to turn against the guy. My best buddy from college is a Jets fan and he said that he was sick of Easterbrook for "writing the same propoganda s--- every week."

The JT caption should read, "Hey, Jason, next year you'll love playing outside backer for a winner."

Other than Bill Simmons, I'm done with ESPN.com. This has made me realize that ESPN is just typical media garbage rather than a news site these days.

 

[letekro]

A big steaming pile of who cares. I'd rather be "evil" anyway.

I doubt the editor hates Jews and Catholics like Mr. Easterbrook does.

 

[FlyingElvis75]

It feels good to be bad. At least it would, if Easterbrook could get any of his facts straight.

 

[cblesz]

Easterbrook is a freaking idiot...my blood was boiling reading that freaking crap...I am so angry typing this right now...what a big fat freaking bildo. How does he get paid for this crap???

ESPN is the MTV of sports media.

I like the fact the rest of the nfl has the same hatred of us as the 70 raiders teams. Those are the teams people will remember for decades

I wonder why Easterbrook, in his rush to call Bill Belichick evil, left out the tons of work he does with Jim Brown's Amer-I-Can Program. I wonder what Jim Brown thinks of him. Oh wait, we know;

Jim Brown: "Bill Belichick of the New England Patriots has contributed more to the work I surround myself with than any black athlete in modern times – financially, intellectually, every way. He's been in the prisons with me. He's met gang members in my home; he's met gang members in Cleveland [where Belichick coached the Browns form 1991 to '95]. He's put up money. He's opened up areas of education for us very quietly and very strongly. Imagine what would happen if Michael Jordan did the same thing."

..or if Tony Dungy did. There would be ESPN specials, and article out the ass talking about good Christian Tony helping the inner city youths. But since Bill does it, no one knows.

Or how evil bill works with Lazarus House Ministries, where they say this about the devil in a hoodie:

"Bill Belichick is a longtime supporter of Lazarus House and is dedicated to helping those who are poor and in need. A very humble and kind man, Bill Belichick prefers to donate his time and generosity quietly, without fanfare, without the glare of the press and truly with his own personal style and grace. Over the years, Bill Belichick and his family have served dinner to our Lazarus House shelter guests, personalized and autographed hundreds of pictures for attendees of a recent past tournament and has donated many autographed items to be auctioned off to help raise funds for Lazarus House. We are so proud and blessed to have Bill Belichick a part of our Lazarus House family, and of his commitment and dedication to helping those who are poor and in need."

But he's loaded. I mean, he must have made millions off of his book:

"Unexpectedly, David Halberstam's new book about Bill Belichick is benefiting an Acton-based nonprofit. Seems the Pats coach eschewed payment for the book and instead pledged his share of the royalties to AccesSportAmerica. In his book, 'The Education of a Coach,' Halberstam describes the organization as 'an extraordinary group to which the Belichick family is committed, which brings formidable athletic challenges…to children and adults with serious physical or developmental disabilities."

Not to mention working closely with the March of Dimes, Big Brothers of Boston, the Patriots charity, RoxComp, Breast Cancer research, and about a dozen other charities, none of which he brags or even talks about, because he's not an attention seeking ******* like Greg Easterbrook.

All Things Belichick

But yea, Easterbrook's right. Clearly we know which side is evil.

You should send all of this info to that douchebag or to ESPN management...what a freaking tool Easterbrook is...

Doesn't matter. He doesn't go to church. He's pure evil.

 

[Pats726]

the fact that the headlines are what they are means it's more than ge with this whole thing..Where are the e-mail addresses so they can have many to read? To put it on those terms of good vs evil is blatantly false..and I woudl like to see Kraft slam them with a lawsuit..Maybe it would NOT do anything..but it MAY make them think twiice about the garbage.. Can you imagine if someone toted ESPN as pure evil?? they would have layers all over the place..trying to sue. I woudl shut ESPN out of all interviews..total and complete..see how evil one can be. ESPN sponders?? A boycott...Hey..if these jerks do not care..maybe that will wake them up...

I have seen a few references to Easterbrook and some anti-Semitic remarks. Can anyone please provide links or background information? I am unfamiliar with Easterbrooks history.

Thanks

BFD. Just another hit piece by another media tool. I kinda like the evil connotation anyway.

Here's one I found on Google:

http://www.talkleft.com/story/2003/10/18/109/03433

Excerpt from the article by Easterbrook:

Set aside what it says about Hollywood that today even Disney thinks what the public needs is ever-more-graphic depictions of killing the innocent as cool amusement. Disney's CEO, Michael Eisner, is Jewish; the chief of Miramax, Harvey Weinstein, is Jewish. Yes, there are plenty of Christian and other Hollywood executives who worship money above all else, promoting for profit the adulation of violence. Does that make it right for Jewish executives to worship money above all else, by promoting for profit the adulation of violence? Recent European history alone ought to cause Jewish executives to experience second thoughts about glorifying the killing of the helpless as a fun lifestyle choice. But history is hardly the only concern. Films made in Hollywood are now shown all over the world, to audiences that may not understand the dialogue or even look at the subtitles, but can't possibly miss the message--now Disney's message--that hearing the screams of the innocent is a really fun way to express yourself.

Aside from the above, he's ultra-conservative-religious-right in his social views and is married to a Baptist minister. You can see alot of that come out in his treatises, even on things as relatively unimportant as sports.

This man is so weird.
To celebrate his idiocy I whipped this up for you guys.
