So now the haters are latching on to the fact that Mackinnon is a co-founder of a company that Kraft invested in. I don't get why people are resorting to appeals to authority re: easily verifiable, middle-school level science in the first place, but given that that's the direction stupid people appear to be taking this, that is a significant mistake by the Pats. If you're attacking the league for utterly failing to use impartial resources, you should go to pretty great lengths to avoid any appearance of doing the same.
