Sounds like 'alternate facts' have invaded sports.
Fallacy argument playboy. "If this then that" mess is silly. Again people here debate like children.

This is TERRIFIC news.

As sports fans in Boston are told they are racists, some may realize what liberalism is about.

Hmmmm, maybe pick up another seat in the northeast.

Nice.

I wouldn't say that that the Pats are a racist organization, but their owner, head coach and QB are Trump supporters which means they at least have a high tolerance for racism.
No it doesn't mean that, that's nothing more than continuing the same old tired BS lies Hillary, liberals and their media lapdogs have been spewing for months.

Lack of diversity doesn't necessarily mean there are racist motivations.

Boston is a super liberal city, so what point are you trying to make here? You think they're going to all of a sudden vote Republican...? Seriously? Over this?



You need to get out more.

LOL... you not too long ago accused me of being liberal.

[edit] ok... may be my memory doesn't serve me... maybe not you.. but I'm often accused of being liberal... lol. I'm actually fairly moderate and identify as independent. I think conservatives and liberals that post here are equally as nutty.

But common sense.... lack of diversity doesn't mean racism is at play... it simply means lack of diversity.

Sorry Burdell but this patriot fan hate the Giants a lot more because of the more recent Super Bowl losses especially the first one. Worst part is that I lived in New Jersey not but 10-15 mins drive (without traffic) from Jet/Giants stadium.

As to the patriots. The patriots are not a team. They are a fairly complete system of how to play football (successfully) masquerading as a team. And from what I gathered from my past reading. The patriot system is not very easy to learn compared to other teams. So at the end of the day everyone, no matter what their color, earned their spot by willing to commit to the patriot system of playing football 100%. also it a good Idea not to po Belichick by showing up late for practice. Ask Jonas Gray about that.

I'd like to mention that the patriots have one of the few Jewish player ( Julian Edelman) the NFL. And he is damned good.

We also have ONLY known Cro-Magnon man/caveman in the league. Of course that would be Gronk.



So we've done right be the GEICO cave people. What more do you people want?
