I cannot in all good conscience condone that Robert Kraft has chosen to stand by and support someone who is not only a convicted felon, a rapist, a foreign asset, but is also at the center of a child-trafficking ring and has participated in, or had knowledge of the murdering of infants and children.

Kraft, by doing this, is also implicitly endorsing or being indifferent to illegal mass imprisonment and deportation, as well as the enormous buildup of illegal and inadequate detention facilities prior to the 2026 midterms.

Kraft himself was also familiar with Epstein and his background. It was Epstein who arranged for Kraft's defense when Kraft was charged with solicitation of prostitution, so this is not a "mistake," or a "poor choice."

Now does this mean I'll stop being a Patriots fan? No. The team itself has nothing to do with the conduct of its owner. I'll continue watching them and rooting for them, but I will not be attending any more home games and I will not spend a single cent on any Patriots merchandise for the rest of my life.

I'm well aware this thread could end up being incendiary, incite cult animosity amongst other things, and that it'll likely get locked sooner or later. I don't have a problem with that but I feel obligated to take a stand.

But aren't we all innocent until proven guilty? Hahahahahahahaha. Yeah.
 
 
.... and therefore, by supporting Kraft, we should all boycott ourselves.

Locked.

I hadn’t realized Kraft was such a strong Ray Lewis supporter.

I'm with you, and believe that there are far more important reasons to take this stance. But not here, brother. It'll just spark more divisive argument and this is a safe space for many of us.
 
I am sure we have time to debate this in a mature and logical fashion in the 15 minutes before a much deserved lock shuts it down
 


It's football. Stop allowing yourself to be manipulated.
 
I hear Belichick feels the same way about boycotting Kraft.
 
A good friend of mine who has attended games with me at Gillette for 19 years now suddenly hates Kraft as well. It's because Bob's wife is a newly appointed Trump-Kennedy Center trustee who voted to rename the place after our current president.

I agree with his dismay. But I also am able to separate that from all the good RKK has done for the franchise and the region. Bob Kraft is a great owner and I am grateful for that, even though his other endeavors/choices/escapades might be open to question.
