I just took a look at Amalie Benjamin on Google Image. Having done that, I’ve nominated here for What Not To Wear. A haircut and a makeup makeover and you’ll be just fine, dear.

On the other hand, there’s nothing you can do for Tony Maz.

I had to clean the dumb that was oozing from my car’s speakers with Butchie and LJ on the Big Show. Flipping through, I heard LJ start a discussion about whether the Patriots should have signed Cassel to an extension before the season. Other highlights were Butchies repeated factual errors that McAdam had to clear up. I am sure the Sean is thinking that nothing he could have earned for his appearance today was worth the mind numbing stupidity that he had to navigate.

Considering how humiliated he and his teammates were the last time he discussed the Patriots in this manner – and how even the coach cited it afterwards as a motivating factor -isn’t the fact that he would even entertain the question this time damning? I was stunned that he would even be quoted on it. I would have expected him to say something along the lines of “You guys really expect me to get into that again after last year? Next question” in kind of a joking way. People would have laughed and probably had a one-liner in the notes that Anthony Smith had learned his lesson. The story is that he responded at all.

Because he covers football for the Herald and this is a site that links to the day’s articles in the sports section of the newspapers (and other media vehicles)?

Just a wild guess. Maybe he meant to instill some sort of faux tough guy boycott and just forgot.

That Speier piece is very good. I hate to say this but weei.com isn’t half bad.

I’m especially amused by Tomase reporting that Anthony Smith trash talked, when he basically stated that if the Steelers play well, they should win… Ummm, how is that trash talking?

Mike Reiss makes every single other sports media hack look like a hack when it comes to the Patriots. You realize, through Reiss, how utterly clueless they all are. I say, make him the lone pool reporter on the Patriots and charge all the other media outlets a fee to use his stuff. I’ll bet Reiss is the only media member respected by the players and team personnel.
