A Modified Quote for the Hatriots

[RecoveringCowboy]

“First they came for the Saints, but I was not a Saint so I did not speak out.
Then they came for the Cowboys and Redskins, but I was neither, so I did not speak out.
Then they came for the Patriots, but I was not a Patriot so I did not speak out.
And when they came for my team, there was no one left to speak out for my team.”

- derived from Dietrich Bonhoeffer

It's only a game, you know. Just a game.

Then why are you at this forum?

I think I already know.

Yup, I'm trying to sell Amway.

Seriously, paraphrasing a quotation about the Holocaust might not be the way to express yourself in this context. I feel really bad about deflategate. Very angry, very anxious. But there are limits, you know?

^ you have been contrary on other threads, the few times you have posted.

This hijacking will not succeed.

The point is today the Hatriots may be partying, but recent history suggests another team will get hit very hard by Goodell. When it does, those fans will likely have second thoughts about DeflateGate.
