Did I just agree with Minihane? Bob Kraft = William Wallace

I have never liked Minihane (Minirat) but he must have taken a "sanity" pill because he was, I thought, right on target tonight. He just compared Bob Kraft to William Wallace.

NOBODY is completely consistent in following his principles -- at least, nobody astute enough to realize that multiple sets of principles each have enough merit to be worth following. So some of what Kraft did is forgivable.

But I wouldn't come close to the other extreme of anointing him as a hero.

Brady would be William Wallace and Kraft Robert The Bruce...

Goodell is The Gimp from Pulp Fiction

Robert the Bruce is actually a fantastic analogy, especially if Kraft actually does something more than just rhetoric.

People are saying caitlyn jenner is a hero. If we follow that logic, bob would have to....God, what have I done?!

Maybe the Mel Gibson version

I'm sorry. My advice is to take two aspirin and go to bed. Hopefully, you'll feel better in the morning.

Conversely, Tanguay managed to lower the IQ of everyone watching by at least 25 points.

Clearly he was reading these boards after the latest Kraft betrayal and caught all the Braveheart analogies that were being thrown around.

But he still f'd it up by suggesting what no one was ever thinking then or now - that Kraft is playing the role of Wallace. Won't watch video though.

Edit: watched video, was pretty entertaining.

We do love our godfather analogies around here.


Krafty is surely Frank Pentangelli.

In that analogy, who is Tom Hagen?

Jimmy garapolo?

Tom Brady is clearly michael
Wells is Johnny Ola
Kensil the Clemenza brothers

Mangini still is Fredo

The utter bastard.

Cannot listen to Minihane, no matter what he is selling.. just another oppositional guy who rises to fame on the coattails of faux controversies..

Perspective:

The very first week of Deflategate, Minihane went on national TV (Oreilly) and declared Brady a cheater.

So that guy has some splainin to do.

Just another entertainer looking to do a "hot take" and make headlines. Last year he used Erin Andrews to get his name in the papers. Not exactly a substantive person.

But he got more facebook likes and twitter followers, which is his measure of success..
