With the Patriots in the news so much this week leading up to the Super Bowl, I was trying to think up an excuse to re-post my piece from last year on Why the "blue collar" New England Patriots are really the NFL's Most Republican Football Team, and really, really hoping I didn't have to update it in order to do so, because that would require a modicum of effort. Fortunately, the New Yorker has arrived with a news peg I can use to make it seem timely.
Writing about the daily grind in the sports reporter Super Bowl beat limbo, they picked up on a throwaway joke from Brady today about his relationship with his father, who followed him around the country throughout his early career.
And then, Brady continued, after he joined the Patriots, his father endured other hardships. “Even when I started my pro career, he travelled to Buffalo,” Brady said. “I don’t know if you guys have ever been in the hotels in Buffalo, but they’re not the nicest places in the world.”
Just like an out of touch New Englander to display such an oblivious disdain for the real world, as the rarefied likes of John Kerry, George Bush Sr. and, more recently, Mitt Romney have done, the New Yorker wrote. Then again, THEY AHH BIASED AGAINST THE PATS LOOK AT THEYAH NAME.
"What is it, though, about plutocrats from New England and the things they say about the worlds that other Americans inhabit?"
Maybe he's starting to lose sight of that truth? It's not much of a leap, after all, from besmirching the quality of the hotels in a 5th rate, rusted out backwater, to saying, as Romney did this week, that he's "not concerned about the very poor."
The Republicans are looking in all the wrong places for their nominee. There's another blandly affable, handsome, rich as all fuck prospect out there who clearly hates the common man. And he's already shown he's a proven winner.

Walter, face it, there isn't any connection.
Stupid article you hack. Brady hates the common man because he talks about shitty hotel rooms in shitty city's like Buffalo ? That's all you got? He is a humble charitable respectful football God. Romney is just another born with a silver spoon stuck up his ass, complete phony, political hack, douche bag. Now go put that shit on your list , you ass clown.
MAD^
Jesus, really bro? First time here?
Is this a real idea someone would actually believe in?

Anonymous Bro is Mad, Bro. Fahkin Quee-yeahs.
I watched the Superbowl last year - first time I'd ever watched a full game of 'Murrican football. Surprisingly enjoyable. (Although having two whole different teams for "offense" and "defense" is overkill.) I was also surprised at how rude opposing fans were to each other without anyone getting genuinely upset.
How dare you!
