Next to rock stars, who really has more opportunity?Hate to break it to you, but I'm pretty sure noone really cares or is surprised when athletes cheat on their wives.

PEDs and Juice?The resort I stayed at had a drink named after Sammy.

Good post and I get where you're coming from. Generally I agree about the taping versus the deflating.Also Boston sports fan. Deflategate was overblown IMO, but taping practices wasn’t. Fact Sox player in early 2000s doped matters to me too. Still warm to Boston sports, but general sports fandom waned as a result. I watch 1/20th of what I did a decade ago. Part is life stage. Part is general disillusionment. Case in point with Papi. Generally, there are no heroes.
Note: my day to day gym used to be branded Lance Armstrong, and around that time local streets were chalked with “Go Lance” on chance he’d ride them. If you’re basing fandom on integrity, you might want to reconsider.
All that said, I don’t like his politics, but Brady = GOAT, even if he did drink turpentine during games.
This is why I watch boxing, there's no illusion that any of it is good or worthwhile.Good post and I get where you're coming from. Generally I agree about the taping versus the deflating.
As for reconsidering fandom based on integrity, also copy that, but that's not really entirely the explanation for my feelings either. Belichick is a smug, contemptuous, arrogant jerk who treats the sports media like garbage** and whose reaction to being caught with his hand in the cookie jar is to act like anyone questioning him is a lower life form. It doesn't resonate well with me. As for Brady, I though his story was cool coming out of obscurity at Michigan and always wondered who was evaluating QB talent for the Wolverines. But somewhere along the way he acquired some of the the same haughtiness and self-perceived immunity from the merest questioning as his coach, and I've just simply had enough of it. Randy Moss and the ultra-dirty Rodney Harrison didn't help any of this either. For what it's worth Brady seems like a decent human being and I'll probably relent on him once he stops playing and maybe does something positive with his and his wife's megamillions.
And I have grown to loathe Aaron Rodgers in the past couple of years too. No cheating AFAIK, but that attitude. Oof.
**of course some sports reporters are clowns. But Belichick doesn't need to act like he's utterly above the concept of anyone asking him questions about anything, ever.
Ah. Makes sense. Just two guys knocking each other senseless, I guess. Welp, at least pro athletes are getting paid, speaking of things I'm pretty tired of.This is why I watch boxing, there's no illusion that any of it is good or worthwhile.
LOL @ breaking it to me. I couldn't care less. I just find it amusing, the week Boston fans had.Hate to break it to you, but I'm pretty sure noone really cares or is surprised when athletes cheat on their wives.
Really? I was wondering if that might be true but I played with Davis "Arias" in Appleton in 96 and I don't remember her at all. Interesting.Wisconsinite here saying that unfortunately this is probably 10000% true.

Ortiz: "Just don't take my doughnuts!"Mrs Papi "Mistress took your Lexus, gunman took you liver and intestines, I am taking your $$$$..bye bye Papi"
those were wildly popular in the.. i want to say.. early 90s. maybe a bit before. a few friends of mine had those shirts, jackets and even hats.Good Posting Judge said:That blue and gold shirt Papi has on is bad-###.

I always have a hard time getting passed him leaving a pregnant Bridget Moynahan for Gisele. Yeah, I don't know what their relationship was like, but man, leaving a girlfriend you got pregnant directly for another woman is really not a good look.Aerial Assault said:Good post and I get where you're coming from.

Brady and Moynahan had already broken up. He and Gisele had been dating for two and a half months before Moynahan found out she was pregnant. It's not like he dumped one for the other, and it's not like he left Moynahan knowing she was pregnant.I always have a hard time getting passed him leaving a pregnant Bridget Moynahan for Gisele.

That's rather presumptuous. All accounts are that he's a great guy. And for all we know, it's possible his wife knew about the mistress.A great ball player, but ####ty human being.
sounds like heaven, imohe's lucky he wasn't flown to some desolate island and held for ransom with only a satellite phone with 1 minute of power, 4 bottles of water, and 4 liverwurst sandwiches.
Plenty of it. You know, quit with the coy bs.So then, what's amusing?
It's not as funny as you think it is. Really.Plenty of it. You know, quit with the coy bs.

Plot twist!!!Shame on all you rumor mongers. Dominican authorities now say that Papi was not the intended target. And the rest - the speculation that Papi was banging some drug lord's main squeeze - all that is just "cheap gossip".
“David Ortiz is innocent in what happened. He has no connection to illicit activities, no relationships with people who have criminal connections, nor has he violated his family values that would bring about such an incident," Hoepelman said.

Not buying the plot twist. By saying they really intended to kill somebody else it:Plot twist!!!
What’s the feeling here — legit announcement based on actual facts or a Big Papi legal team payoff to a corrupt official?
And does this mean Papi wasn’t taking batting practice with that luscious Latina?
And what about the reported earlier attempt on his life 2 months earlier? More rumor mongering?The funniest part of this facade is that the contract killer is changing his tune, trying to say he got the wrong guy. And the sheep are buying that bull####.
Oh, nobody in the DR knew who Big Papi was, it was an accident,. He's as famous as anybody there. But it was a mistake! Pathetic.

Nothing but amusement. Won't have to hear loudmouths go on and on about Boston. Good times.So much anger
Big Papi let him down in fantasy baseball a few years back.why are you so angry about this
Uhhhhhh I don’t think that’s going to be the case.Won't have to hear loudmouths go on and on about Boston.
Whatever gets you through the day. You should consider talking to a therapist about some of your feelings of inadequacy. Btw, the bruins don't have anything to do with Ortiz getting shot.Nothing but amusement. Won't have to hear loudmouths go on and on about Boston. Good times.

Boston sports had a horrible week, no two ways about it. It will be a nice break from the obnoxiousness, however short-lived that may be....Whatever gets you through the day.

Now imagine Ortiz died. Now that woulda been the bad week to end all bad weeks, right?Boston sports had a horrible week, no two ways about it. It will be a nice break from the obnoxiousness, however short-lived that may be....
In the end it's just sports kiddo, you'll get through this. Best of luck!
