I remember this guy from years ago, when he was an eager pup dazzled by the spotlight and in search of an agenda. now he’s right where he wanted to be, giving Shaunessey a run for his money.

Well, Borges is gone, and Shaunessey is marginalized and pathetically irrelevant. Let’s hope Maz follows them.

I look forward to seeing his fascinating pieces on Nerve.com in the future.

In light of Matt Walsh going on HBO and giving the NY Times an interview, in which he seemingly contradicted some of the things that he told Goodell in his testimony, Felger, who is STILL insisting that the Herald’s false walkthrough story is merely a question of “poor word choice” and “semantics”, rather than being a completely false smear, proclaimed Matt Walsh to be “believable” as he spins his “Patriots Tales from the Darkside” to the national media. Within 10 seconds of pronouncing Walsh “believable”, Felger then flatly stated that “Belichick and the Patriots have been lying about this for 8 months”.

Well, let’s see, if you want to call Belichick’s “rules misinterpretation” explanation a lie, OK…I’ll let that one slide. I think it was more disengenous than a lie, but whatever.

But can Felger please explain to all of us what ELSE the Pats have been lying about for the last 8 months? The Pats have hardly spoken a word about this since the story broke last September. He was apparently trying to call them out about Belichick’s “I couldn’t even pick him out of a lineup” statement regarding Walsh when contrasted with Walsh’s “he was in three team photos with me” statement to the NY Times.

Does Felger KNOW that Belichick was lying about that? Doesn’t it seem plausible that a guy who was fired 5 years ago, and who was a relatively low-level and obscure member of the staff to begin with, may very well have left Belichick’s memory?

Seems that Mike Martz also came out tonight and questioned Walsh’s contention that he was in the Superdome in Pats’ gear during the walkthrough….saying that “they would have noticed” people milling around their walkthrough in Pats’ gear.

So who’s lying Felger? Matt Walsh…who lied about having a confidentiality agreement with the Pats and also most likely fed Tomase the false walkthrough taping story…or Mike Martz, who was actually IN the Superdome on the day of the walkthrough?

This is a complete joke.

The Herald, and all of its writers, editors and part-time correspondents like Felger and Callahan should be totally ashamed of themselves for their conduct.

I can’t wait to hear how Tomase tries to spin this in Friday’s paper.

The conduct of Felger, Massarotti and Callahan these last couple of days serves as a stinging indictment of the media culture in America today. It’s a culture that screams “We can write and say whatever the hell we want about anyone, but don’t any of you even DARE to question us, or we’ll all band together like the pack rats that we are and bury you, both in print and from our TV/radio pulpits.”

I need a shower now…..I need to wash away the stench of this whole sordid affair.
