Jets fan chiming in here: Reading that article, would I be correct in assuming that the Boston Herald is the New York Post of that fine city? Nonetheless, I think I’ll read it a few more times between now and the game so I can continue to build up rooting interest for the Giants. (Of course, I’ll have to avoid the very same article from the NY Post that will be a carbon copy of this article with appropriate substitutions for key words.)
Pretty much, but it’s not quite as bad. It tends to pander to the conservative working class, and some of the op ed stuff is pretty loony toon, but it’s getting better.
Well, it was.
You know, I’m going to take a wild guess and say that the linked article wasn’t entirely serious…
Meh. Pre-Super Bowl trash talk between two of the more affluent team fan-bases in the NFL.
Since when is that something to boast about? If the writer really wanted to show how Pat fans have sooooooo much better taste than those po’ white trash Giant fans, she’d name Sam Adams or some good New England-based microbrew. If you’re going to be a beer snob, at least know a little something about the subject.
Again, is that something for a Patriot fan to boast about? I would think most Pat fans (especially those that live in some of rougher areas of Boston) would actually take offense at the assertion that those Tri-State area wimps drink more whiskey than they do. How do you think they were able to put up with the Red Sox 86-year drought between World Championships?
Take it from a Yankee fan-- they became world-class whine connoisseurs.
I did wish her the fate of drinking Bud Light. I should’ve thrown a smiley in there somewhere. No whooshing, I was just having a bit of fun myself. 
First posts of the day are always a bit hazy.
Win.
Probably closer to the Daily News overall, but they do have their Post days.
To buy for less than 200K either place, you’re looking at a <1000 sq ft condo.
Don’t you guys realize that hockey season is going on? You don’t have to watch football.
Were it any other paper, I’d be inclined to agree. But the Herald?
Aaaaa, shit. How am I supposed to answer that?
That you even know about the Dope, never mind post here, takes you out of the class of Typical Meathead Sports Guy right there.
Bingo.
Dear [del]Heather[/del] Jessica Heslam,
Oh yeah, the Patriots are so good & so great. Boy-o-boy. Why even have a game, right? So, you don’t mind if we just show up & play, do you…? It’ll be something to watch while your clerk pulls up headlines out of your paper’s archives about how Dewey beat Truman in a Landslide.
Seriously, how insecure and vain must your readers be that your circulation depends on your maintenance of the proper foot/pound pressure of smoke you blow up their collective Volvo seat-shaped asses??? No matter who wins in Arizona, the picture you paint of the lives of the successful in Boston is more telling by your cup of measure than it by your flowery imagery. But I won’t keep you. There are 4 more columns to get out before game time and you must have some serious puckering to do…
What I find most amusing about the upcoming game is the sudden increase in Giants fans around these parts.
Look, if you don’t like the Pats, that’s fine, but don’t suddenly start talking like you’re a lifelong Giant’s fan.
Hah! You Pitted the Herald!
You’d love WEEI.
I saw this article and groaned as well. Just another reason why there shouldn’t be two weeks in between the playoffs and the [del]Superbowl[/del] “Big Game”
Ah! Thanks
