Somebody Tell Nick Wright That Patrick Mahomes Will Never Be the GOAT

The retirement this week of Tom Brady gives me another excuse (as if I needed one) to rub salt in Nick Wright’s fresh wounds. If you don’t understand why I despise Nick Wright, you can read all about it here, but the main point is that Nick is a shameless homer for the Kansas City […]

The Joy of Schadenfreude as Nick Wright Cries the Tears of Unfathomable Sadness

When my team loses a football game, I have the luxury of being silent, pretending that nothing happened. The incident on January 10? Nope. No comment. Movin’ on. Nick Wright of Fox Sports does not have that luxury. He gets paid to talk about football, which is galling to fans of other teams who must […]

Patriots Post Mortem: What Mac Jones Needs to Do During the Off Season

It’s been nearly a week since the Patriots got humiliated by the Bills in last Saturday’s playoff game, and I’ve been procrastinating on doing a post mortem analysis of New England’s 2021 season. Y’all know the story — the Patriots drafted Mac Jones from Alabama, and thereby recruited me as a fan, because Roll Tide! […]

Can Mac Jones Win the ‘Froze Bowl’?

It’s supposed to be about zero degrees at game time tonight in Orchard Park, N.Y., where the Buffalo Bills will host the New England Patriots in an AFC wild-card playoff.

During New England’s seven-game winning streak, it appeared entirely possible that the Patriots might win all their […]

Today Is the Day: Patriots Can Clinch Playoff Berth With Win Over Jaguars

Yesterday someone said, “Stacy, I gotta tell ya — I liked you a whole lot more before you became a vocal Patriots fan. Remember, most of their fans are Massachusetts communists.” OK, I admit this has become somewhat obsessive, but as I say, when they drafted Mac Jones, they recruited me as a fan. It […]

AOC and the Georgia Bulldogs Traveled to Miami This Weekend

The Georgia Bulldogs are playing Michigan in the Orange Bowl, and I’m sure the New York Democrat has serious business in Florida: Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was spotted dining in Miami Beach, Fla., on Thursday, according to a tip received by National Review, on the same day that her native New York City reported a record […]

Nick Effing Wright

If Satan were a sports commentator, he’d be Nick Wright of Fox Sports. And if Patrick Mahomes were gay, Nick Wright would be his boyfriend. Any liberal who thinks Fox News is biased should turn the channel over to Fox Sports sometime and see what real bias looks like. Nick Wright, a Kansas City native […]
