Ron Borges Caught In Another Lie, Mazz Making Stuff Up, and Peter King’s Laughable Rationalization
Just another day in the world of the Boston sports media. In the morning, we had Pete Sheppard taking on Ron Borges on the Dennis and Callahan Morning Show.

Just What Is A “Produced” Touchdown?
This drab little note in Peter King's Monday Morning Quarterback column this week has provided considerable fodder for the likes of Felger of Mazz. Opposing passers have produced more touchdowns than Tom Brady, 19-18. This is just a weird sentence. "Produced more touchdowns?" What is the definition he's using here? Solely passing TD's?

Avoiding Super Bowl Media Crush No Easy Feat
Much of the time, I tend to take a very Boston-centric view to the sports world. While I certainly keep up with the sports world outside of New England, there much out there that I could take or leave. The Super Bowl media hype for a game not involving the Patriots is one of those. Especially … Continue reading Avoiding Super Bowl Media Crush No Easy Feat
Globe Staff Going Whole Hog On Brady Holdout
C'mon guys. The Boston Globe. Allegedly THE paper of record for New England sports, is embarrassing themselves with this Tom Brady holdout garbage.
