Ben Volin is an idiot. Does anyone else agree?

I hope I'm not alone on this, but Ben Volin is arguably the worst Patriots writer I've seen not named Dan Shaughnessy.

The most idiotic thing I've seen him mention in his articles came after the Kansas City debacle, when he said that Brady just had his 4th bad game in a row. Volin clearly didn't watch any of Brady's previous games from that season, because that wasn't even remotely true (Brady definitely didn't play poorly versus Minnesota, and he didn't play poorly versus Oakland). And while the Dolphins game was a bad performance by him, that game was technically a tale of two halves (very good first half, awful second half).

That guy's a serious hack.

Literally noone on this site has ever brought up Ben Volin before, you are the first. Congrats.

Ben?.....Is that you?

Welcome to the board!

So you know, his nickname here is the MCI. Stands for mentally challenged intern. I expect that should answer your question....

Search the threads for Volin. You will get an idea of Volin's (MCI) popularity on this forum.

Volin = MCI (Mentally Challenged Intern)

Who knew?

Welcome to the Forum!

Ralphie Dimes dislikes 'im too!

And water is wet and the Patriots play in Gillette Stadium!

All kidding aside, Taylor, welcome aboard!

There's a simple solution to his dumbassery, stop reading anything from him, and espn. It's like some of you people have stockholm syndrome

This is like saying the sky is blue or the grass is green.

A simple, yet eloquent solution, that evades many.

i dont know if hes an idiot. but he definitely sucks as s

Somewhere in DC on a Skins forum someone just posted: You know I don’t think Daniel Snyder is the most stable of owners.

Welcome to the board, dude.

No one here has the cojones to do it, but I think you're just the right person to start a thread about how much the Jets suck.

you must be new here.

you guys know that he has an MBA, right?

he could have gone into private equity

chose sports because it's his passion

i'd say he is fairly sharp

Apparently volin started something again on twitter with a pats fan @PatriotsSB50 and is getting hammered. But the troll still continues

Hey @BenVolin, you just said (on Miami radio) that "it's unfortunate that the Patriots tend to push the boundaries". Please explain.
Ben Volin ‏@BenVolin 9h9 hours ago
@PatriotsSB49 Spygate and Deflategate. Ever hear of em?
PatriotsSB50‏@PatriotsSB49
.@BenVolin That's what I thought. So over 16 yrs Belichick blew off a 2006 memo, and 2 hundredths of PSI in 4 balls. Got it. Keep doing you.

@BenVolin @PatriotsSB49 U do realize how lame those tweets r as evidence, right? Beevis & Butthead really didn't say anything incriminating?
Ben Volin ‏@BenVolin 8h8 hours ago
@Grendel_the_Dog cool. Let's ask them what those texts meant under oath. And why he went to the bathroom with the footballs
Grendel the Dog ‏@Grendel_the_Dog 8h8 hours ago
@BenVolin You realize there was no venue for questioning them under oath, right? Just the bogus Wells Report. No independent investigation.
Ben Volin ‏@BenVolin 8h8 hours ago
@Grendel_the_Dog well the NFL told the NFLPA it wanted to hear from both guys, but they declined to bring them to the appeal. Wonder why
