Shank slimes Belichick with weasel words

-say that ties Beli-Cheat to the situation pretty well.
You teach people how to cheat, they're going to cheat. Beli-Cheat's a cheater, and so are his progeny. I can get behind the correlation.

The fact that anyone is so upset by what the ugliest man in sports writing has to say about anything that they would put up and maintain a blog about it just leads me to believe that rabid sports fans (who lose all sense of relevant importance of things in life) should all be hit with some really nasty disease (cancer? MS? ?) in order to put their shit in perspective. Maybe not the author of this blog (he might just be making a buck) but the kinds of people who call in to sports radio programs frothing at the mouth or post dissertation-level statistical analysis on blogs or generally get more worked up about the idea of Jeter in a Red Sox uniform () than they would about witnessing a murder in the street in front of their eyes.

Might be an overreaction on my part, but between Justin Beiber, Lady Gaga, sports radio, reality tv, it feels like Mass-Market Entertainment Culture has gone beyond defining Western Culture and now is 100% of people's thought (and bodily function) processes. If you REALLY disagree with Dan Shaughnessy, cancel your Globe subscription, tell them why and then pretend he never existed. I just can't get worked up about sports (or meta-sports) anymore. (Obviously I found other things to get worked up about.)
