Ben Volin is an idiot. Does anyone else agree?

[Rob0729]

Ben Volin?!? Haven't heard of him. People should talk more about him on this board so I can get up to date.

@BenVolin @PatriotsSB49 how did the Pats push the envelope with Deflategate? IF you were paying attention, you would know nothing happened.

I made a thread this morning that many posters felt was in bad taste titled "Did Ben Volin Give Alcohol to Minors?" with the OP saying "It hasn't been proven, doesn't mean it didn't happen". Due to the response, I deleted it.

This is like asking, "Water is wet. Does anyone else agree?"

That's because people, by and large, are sensitive little *****es. Did Ben Volin engage in sexual acts with farm animals? It hasn't been proven, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Mensa International was told by Volin their organization is not good enough for Volin.

Volin considers the Rhodes Scholarship an insult

The Fields Medal...according to Volin it's nothing more than a A+ on a 4th grade math test.

Ben Volin is very smart....in his own mind.

Oh, was that the only one you posted? Because I remember another one.

 

[JackBauer]

Should've just titled this "Ben Volin is an idiot. Does everyone else agree?"

 

[PatsFanSince74]

A more appropriate Thread title would have been: "Ben Volin is an idiot. Does anyone disagree?"

But, welcome to the Board anyway. Don't be discouraged by the response...I think most of us will just chalk this up as a Rookie Mistake after having a little fun.

Which goes to prove that although you’re a no good yellow bellied heartless muckraker, you're still better than Goodell.

Is Ben Volin a child molester? Sure, it hasn't been proven, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Been Trollin'? You read him?

Been Trollin'? You read him?

I always pictured it as Ben Troll-Lynn.

 

[titletownpats]

My favorite Volin story is when he claimed Robert Kraft is related to the Kraft foundation because of a Google search he did. What a clown!

I think he actually tries to do a decent job -- and his failures just confirm what an idiot he is.

His tweets are what are generally horrific about his work -- and he doesn't even seem to realize it.

He's underqualified.

Waste Management is looking for residential waste disposal engineers.

That career might more aligned with his skill set.

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.

Agreed, except for the word serious; he can't be serious with that hysterically stupid opinion.

You can read the look on his face as "Geez, I hope there won't be any pop quizzes tonight!"

Volin has said that he found covering deflategate more interesting than covering the training camp and football.
