So borges thought don yee would first finalize contract for jimmy g and turn around and tell borges that his other client now demands more money ?

It just shows how little curiosity he has when something fits his agenda. Calling this sloppy would be a gross understatement.
 
Gotta give Minihane credit for this one....

You think Minihane is behind this? I may not like the guy, but to think he'd attack Borges is not a good career move, IMO. Borges must have friends who will fight back, if it's indeed Minihane's doing. It would be career suicide.
 
To ststatthe obvious, we've almost certainly seen the end of Borges. This is getting too much attention for him to be able to come back from.
 
Long ago, I wrote to the Globe with two complaints about Borges. The lesser was that he was too lazy to know the Grahambo nickname (that's how long ago it was), and had misheard it as Rambo instead. The greater was an OBVIOUSLY false story that he attributed to "sources"; I inferred that he'd lied, as I couldn't imagine multiple sources making the same error.

I received a reply thanking me because, while there had been many complaints about Borges, mine was one of the few POLITE ones.
 
I believe this would be an appropriate punishment:

 
This story has already been floated on national sites. No one will hear the retraction. Sound familiar?

I think the retraction will be pretty well-known at this point. There's a fair bit of entertainment value in a writer getting burned like this. The story is easy to digest so it's the type of thing that'll fly around NFL media circles. They've also got nothing else to write about, so the timing is especially bad for Borges (from an embarrassment standpoint).
 
With the made up Lickmyshaft article, it seems that it is the new 'in' thing for columnist to make up a story and then pontificate how this new 'insight' into the Patriots shows massive dysfunction. And then the cattle follow, forgetting it was a fiction. And weeks of anger and bitterness ensue.

I am getting to old to put up with this crap, how does an organization that has done nothing but excel, deserve to be attacked with lies and supposition that no matter that they are directly told of its falsehood, they twist that denial into a conspiracy to cover up the 'truth' of the fiction. It is disgusting.

Kraft never sued. He also should have demanded Tomase's "source", and confronted that liar, threatening to sue.

Deflategate never would have happened if Kraft had sued. ESPN would have challenged Goodell more, and it may not have ever happened.

How insulting is it that the Herald hired Borges after the cardinal sin at the Globe, too?

It's a little tiring to hear the "I didn't know" excuse, by people who KNOW EXACTLY what they are doing.
 
To ststatthe obvious, we've almost certainly seen the end of Borges. This is getting too much attention for him to be able to come back from.

He's like a roach, though. In all seriousness, I have never seen anything like this in my professional life.

Between Goodell caught lying in federal courts and what ESPN, the Globe and Herald have now all done, in conjunction with their radio partners, it couldn't be more obvious how illegal it all is.

It's intentional, not accidents or coincidences.

So, leading up to the 2014 AFC Title game, the Indy Star was printing all kinds of "Pats Cheat" articles. I truly believe Bob Kravitz and that other guy there, knew of what Irsay/Grigson were going to do. Kravitz was also the first one to tweet, mere minutes after the game was over, that framejob was underway.

Just like the concocted and induced Sean Sullivan email that Grigson told him to send to him, this was all a colloborative effort.

Nothing ever added up, but I find it very suspicious the Indy Star was writing so aggressively about debunked things like Spygate years and years later, leading up to a title game that they KNEW they were going to lose, because they're losers. There was not talk of anything else leading up to the game, but this brainwashing that the Pats "cheat". They repeated lie after lie after lie created by these same entities, as we've seen for years.

Remember the "find yourself a flophouse" line Rolling Stone printed that they said BB said to Hernandez at the Combine in 2013? Who actually believes that? But, someone printed that, made money off of it, and who knows, propelled their career somehow. All for doing nothing by lying and sensationalizing with absolutely no sources of any kind.

So, this whole media machine of printing known lies to make money off the Pats, has not only been going on for too long, but been going on in illegal fashion for too long, and like I keep saying:

Were does it end?

Fake news Media shows "curiosity" when digging for more suits their agenda, when investigation could turn up info contradictory to their stance, or prove them wrong, it's whistle past the graveyard time...

Minihane said he had this guy Nick connect with Borges pretending to be Don Yee and played him like a fiddle. I listened to the interview w/ Nick on the way to work this am.

If hes lying an falsely propping himself up, he sure fooled me.
 
Kraft faced the very high standard of proving not merely that the story wasn't true, but that Tomase and/or the Herald either knew the story was false or exhibited reckless disregard for the truth.


Correct. I've explained this before, but I am of the opinion that in this day and age, evidence of them having knowledge and that this was intentional, will be on their computers and phones.

So, you'd be spending a ton of money during the discovery process, but that is where the evidence is.

I don't believe that people involved in these things have all of their conversations about these approaches, only in person. I think it's done on emails, texts, etc.

I think Kraft thinks it's not worth his money and it may not work, and if it did provide the truth, he'd be putting a lot of people out of jobs. He's been too nice, IMO.

Barring the Krafts having things to hide, it's a no brainer at this point to rattle the cage. Borges printed a column he didn't even bother to corroborate the validity of.


He can claim negligence, but he has a track record as we know.

Here is some person's comment I agree with:

"One can criticize the prankster if they so choose. But running with a random story based on unverified texts and then falsely assigning a second source to them is a separate issue from the prank, and colleagues defending that is not a good look."
 
I have heard the “ good writer” claim numerous times but I don’t buy it. Borges has zero respect for the truth and he’s used his columns as a place to wage his vendetta’s and spread lies for years and years. He’s a fraud and a liar and out of work is the only place for him.
Back in "they day" his "Boxing Notes" in the Sunday Globe sports section was must-read.
 
That was a little over the top, but I think it was only a matter of time since this is just yet another example in a laundry list of them of how slanted and biased the media in general is when it either does or doesn’t suit them.
