Years ago there was a story going around that when Fredo Shaft first met Menino (to discuss the "megaplex" idea for the Seaporr), he ran his mouth afterwards that Menino's "elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor." I always believed it to be true because in "my community" (if you get my drift) the reputation Fredo had was that his mouth was as big as his wallet. So for me there is a huge irony here: it's evident that Fredo's elevator doesn't work anymore.
He needs to shut up and go away, and those of us who encounter him need to tell him so. It's the only thing he'll really understand, even more than with money. He has too much to give a crap about a few empty seats or less revenue at that ridiculous shopping center of his. Let the media lackeys suck up to him if they so desire, but us Pats fans need to shower Fredo with scorn and contempt, and refuse to allow him to think he can toss out a few weasel words and we'll get back in line. Nothing would be sweeter than having 68,000 people telling Fredo to f himself on national TV. Drown out his usual drivel about spirituality and show him what passion for the team actually looks like. Go to training camp and heckle him (after you feel you've gotten your money's worth, of course). If you see him someplace tell him directly what a worm he is. Drive him away and maybe Jon-boy will realize the cost of being a stooge for the Goodell's of the world.
