I hate his remarks about Rodney. Love the rest of it.

I hate his remarks about Rodney. Love the rest of it.

I think he was a little strong on Rodney, but I can see where he's coming from. I was really pissed at him for his behavior in the game last week; he was out of control.

I like the comparison of Spygate to a scratch on a Ferrari.

Agree on Harrison, by the way...

 

[BadMoFo]

Not a great column, agree with Harrison comments.

Yeah, I love Rodney, foolish penalties recently aside.

But I agree with his Dad--save the column for post-season.

 

[Pats Fan in Indy]

"When the Patriots were vilified nationally after SpyGate, that made Patriots fans more attached to the team and the season became about something else. Everyone loved the '86 Celtics, but this Patriots season has been different -- it's a much more personal experience as a fan, something that can't fully be explained. When you're rooting for a team that everyone is rooting against, it's almost debilitating. I'm not kidding. I need a vacation after this season."

I thought this quote by Simmons was brilliant... it describes exactly how I feel.
