    that gronkowski "hit"...
    1 game is laughable.  it was the dirtiest and most cowardly thing i have seen someone do in pro sports. 
    Dirtier than Marty McSorley hitting Donald Brashear in the head with his stick? I don't think so.


    This weekend we rock Portland

    Hmmm.... And what do McSorley (at the time of the incident) and Gronk have in common, I wonder?

    JuJu is going to have to keep his head on a swivel for the rest of Vontaze's career.  Giving the dirtiest player in the league reason to have a personal vendetta may not be the smartest idea.

    that is a good comparison.  I would say its close, but Gronkowski's was more dangerous, but its debatable.  He is 270 pounds, after the play, took multiple steps, got leverage, and launched himself and his weird arm brace right at the back of an unsuspecting player's head.  To make it worse, he blamed it on being upset about being held and getting penalized earlier.   Brashear's was pretty bad, but was compounded by falling backward and his head hitting the ice. 

    McSorley was also suspended more than a quarter season and had criminal charges against him.  

    Maybe Dale Hunter is another comparison?  Again, he was suspended a quarter of the season.


    I think 4 games would have been fair and reasonable.  Would have been regular season.  wouldn't really hurt the pats too much (if anything it would rest him for the playoffs).

    The Chargers situation is oddly fascinating to me. This is an interesting read

    It's awful. My daughter has goddamn B's stickers all over her hockey helmet, her mom is a goddamn B's bimbo, and my daughter and her mite teammates are getting three minutes of fame to scrimmage on sloppy TD Garden ice in between periods next week. She's likely hooked after that.

    I need to get back to Brooklyn stat so that at least maybe my son won't become a fucking mouth-breathing, knuckle-dragging Boston goon and learn classy Rangers traditions such as the "Potvin sucks!" chant, "#om@ Larry!" and interrupting the national anthem with "LET'S GO RANGERS!!!!"

    Of course, in NYC, I was running the risk of them becoming Yankees fans. Tough battles that we as parents have to choose.

    I'll say this: If either one of them ever even so much as mentions anything to do with the Celtics in a favorable light, they will from thenceforth be disowned.

  • Brett Hundley proving maybe the management teams know a little more about personnel than the armchair GMs that thought signing Kap made perfect sense.
    "My brain's a good brain!"
  • Watching the Rams game and their brutal lack of urgency on their drive with four minutes remaining was horrible.

    What... was... that?

    We'll see if they get it back and what they might be able to do with it if they do.

    * And I'm not sure why Baldwin didn't secure the first down in the Jax game either- going out of bounds after a nine yard gain when he could have dived forward and gotten the first? There was lots of time. As it turns out... sack on the next play... and... gaaaaame over.
    "My brain's a good brain!"
  • Lol.

    They don't get the ball back.

    Lesson learned... morons.
