Sorry, Eric, way too little, way too late, bro. I am sure you did not intend to set off the fire storm you set in motion. But, maybe you should have thought this through BEFORE whining to the league office for something so minor. For the past decade now, because of what YOU initiated, BB, TB, and the rest of this organization is constantly over scrutinized, unjustly criticized, and all of its accomplishment through hard work are impugned. And, now our QB and organization are hit with draconian penalties for minor infractions (ones that are never proven in fact to being with). Well, Eric, we reap what sew, as you are finding that out the hard way. I have NO sympathy for you, you no good bastard. Hopefully, you will NEVER get another coaching job at any level again. Don't kid yourself, many of BB's colleagues may be jealous of him, but they RESPECT the hell out him. No organization in their right mind would ever hire or trust you. You are rightfully a PARIAH in your field. It does not look like you have many friends either. I hope this eats away at you night and day for the rest of your miserable life. Maybe, just maybe, you can understand a bit what this organization, us fans, BB, and all associated with the New England Patriots have had to deal with because of you. NO sympathy from me. As far as forgiving you, well that is up to other powers that be. You really want to show sympathy for this? Easy, go on a REAL national show and explain your point, and make it clear that this was way overblown, then. maybe we can talk about "forgiving" your transgression.
