If that organization/journalist/reporter aided them in some way like saying paying them for it? Sure.
I was sardonic. "Fans have the right" is BS they use to cover for their own. Kay is big on this. I agree, I wanted to see the pix, but there is no "right" to see it. So I hope Shaffy will get spanked.
He was there on site reporting for a week and I bet he hounded staff going in and out....this is what these guys do.....news hounds. Plus tmz has been upping them at every turn (espn). They have to go all circus anymore for ratings. He got the photo from the staff sending texts:...don't you be silly now Stokes
Well ok, we don't see eye to eye on this but Schefter has jumped the shark the past few yrs.....he's turned into a drama look at me reporter. Can't wait to hear about this civil suit ......I'm sure BSPN will settle out of court
Investigative reporters, even in the idiotic forum of entertainment and sports, play a role-not vital, not important, but a role nonetheless. If it weren't for Woodford and Frounstein maybe Bumphrey would have been president. _
It's a $15,000 liability. I've met him. That guy has $15,000 suits. He's one of the faces of a multi billion dollar business. You're going to need to satisfy your jealousy somewhere else. _
it was not supposed to be released, the hospital folks fucked up. they are ultimately to blame, HOWEVER this tool played a big role in it. and you don't have to steal something to be an asshole. possessing stolen goods is against the law, right? possessing shit you shouldn't have doesn't make you scott free in my book. these guys play the game of football. they never asked someone to make them celebrities. some of them love it I am sure that some of them hate it. people need to live a little bit better lives of their own and leave folks alone. then again I am the type of guy who sees celebrities and says nothing more than I would say to anyone I meet in the world. nothings worse than folks who go up to people in a restaurant and ask them for pictures and autographs and shit. fucking stalkers.
What jealousy ? He was a good reporter some time ago.....he's crossed into the dark side I used to like him but he's just sold out now
He went to the dark side when he reported his buddy Mort got the PSI report wrong? Everything in your pathetic life, every opinion you have, is like a giant funnel that leads back to your 24 hr a day obsession.
My obsession. Haha go back to beating off to your TB12 posters in your room kid. Mort reported per what he was told. He didn't make it up. Has KMC given you a raise yet? deflator wants you to buy his beer and help him get new kicks........ Sad illiterate mainer
I'm a 55 year old kid who knows that you are a fucking moron. I never said Mort made up his info you stupid fuck. You never have a reply to anything so you go off in your own direction to further your agenda. You hate Shefter because he put the kibosh on Mort's report. It doesn't matter that the NFL fed him bad the info, it was wrong.
I get that you hate Schefter, he is kind of a smug douche but what he did has been going on forever. When something gets "leaked", someone either stole of wrongfully came into possession of something and the messenger just put it out there. That's what investigative reporters do--that's a loose term for Schefter but he just did what reporters have been doing for ever. The Ray Rice video was not a public document--it was impounded by police and somehow it got "released'. Whoever put it out there was in "possession of stolen goods" lol. We didn't NEED to see the video to know what happened but we WANTED to see it. The names on the Mitchell report--same thing. I'd love to see all the test results too to find out actually who WAS juicing--that would be a valuable thing for the public and baseball fans especially to know. Fuck that shit it was supposed to be confidential--I don't give a fuck about cheaters confidentiality--I want to KNOW. Wouldn't you have loved for someone to have "stolen" the Patriots videos before Goodell destroyed them? Or would that have been wrong too? Because they were "stolen goods"? Wouldn't you like to see video of ALL the fucked up things these a-holes do on a seemingly daily basis? It's entertainment--that's all it is. We all knew the dumb fuck blew off some fingers but that picture of the medical report crystallized it for us. Who did it hurt? JPP? How did that hurt him--we all knew what happened--so he sues the hospital and gets $15,000, which is what he's entitled to. He lost his monster contract because of his own stupidity--ESPN should have to make up the difference in his contract because they put a picture of a medical record out there--ESPN didn't light the match too close to the fireworks-JPP did. Who else got hurt? The woman on the report? So she should sue and get whatever she deserves. Some day when they take Brady to the hospital with a hamster up his asshole--I hope to God someone steals THAT medical report and puts it out there on the internetz. The X-rays too. _
I have disliked Schefter since he joined the mothership, he was much better on NFL Network. He's been compromised just like your boy Reiss has been on ESPN. Wrong info or not, it was fed and reported. You have no answer for JJ and JM 55 year old who looks for validation on a Jets board, while I am here to keep you insufferable Pats fans in check. I know it hurt all those years of losing to have your RAK savior rig the NFL and their titles. The Hubris is Strong up there, I know. It's the biggest brainwashing since AH in the 30's My agenda.....ha ha, listen pal, you're all hated by 31 other fanbases, so you're not gonna sell that agenda shit now are you? Why doesn't Kraft just say he's sorry for tarnishing the billonaire boys club. Belichick should have by all means gotten at least a one game suspension for Spygate or DG. It's ludicrous how the NFL has protected NE all these years and want to downplay how bad the cheating is. BB is holding the NFL ransome with other damaging information, you can count on it. This is why it's all hushed, it's as bad as it could ever be....so to let it all go nice an neat is what they want to do (the owners), so DG is also a pile on for SG an it should be. Goodell said futher cheating in the future would be dealt with harshly and stop with this persecution complex now. Take your gosh darm medicine and STFU
I think you and I have been down this road before. its not entertaining to me and in all honesty its kind of creepy. its all fun and games until someone puts something about you or someone you give a shit about that you didn't want out there. I don't believe that playing football should make it ok for people to be in your face and bothering you all the time. its become part of the job, but that's only because weirdos made it that way. and they hide behind the old well they don't have to play football bullshit.
What about the Pats tapes that Goodell destroyed? Would you not want to see them? I think you are in a very small minority of folks who don't want to see the lurid details of other's failings--it's a different world today. Some of the stuff on TV is horrible--like My 600 Pound Life or Real Housewives of [insert city] or Jersey Shore--and you know what I do? I don't watch it. But there is some horrible stuff I actually might want to watch. If a football player is tweeting out pics of himself to promote himself and then he accidentally fucks up, he can't pull it back--the bad has to be out there as well as the shit they want to feed us. And those players/celebs have ruined it for everyone so fortunately or unfortunately, that's the price they ALL pay for fame fortune rockstar lifestyle and adoration. JPP put himself in the position he's in--that ESPN got his medical records and put it out there is not all that damaging to him. What did it cost him? Embarrassment? Humiliation? He already embarrassed and humiliated himself--who cares if it's on a piece of paper from the hospital for the world to see? As much as you don't want to agree, these are not private individuals anymore--none of them once they step into that spotlight. Pro athletes, movie/TV stars/internet creations/politicians--they are public people that scummy reporters are going to want to dig up stuff on. It's not about you or me or someone we love--it's about the people we see on TV or pay $$ to see in live games. It's about people that are selling us products and services and themselves every damn day. Who cares-if you don't want to read or see it, you don't have to. If an athlete REALLY wants to be private--he can. Have you ever seen anything negative about the private lives of David Wright? Derek Jeter? No, because they don't do stupid shit. _
i dont want to see the pats tapes that goodell destroyed. i would like him to be held accountable for destroying them, i would like the pats to be held accountable but thats a completely different situation. i probably am in the minority, most people want to tear down and shit on others constantly... its a shame but its a burden i dont carry. however it fuels idiots like schefter. This wasnt a picture tweeted, this was a guys medical records being put out to 4 million douchebags so that schefter could claim he was a big shot. jpp blew his hand off. it happens more often than you probably realize. he didnt put it on instagram and then delete it, he went to a hospital and got treatment. is he an idiot for blowing his hand off? yes. does he deserve to have someone break the law and share it with someone else who knows he probably shouldnt share it but does anyway. no he doesnt. its not about how damaging it is to him. its about crossing lines of common decency. its about being a douchebag or not. its about feeding that kind of douchebag behavior or not. he is suing for 15k, its obviously not about how bad it damaged him, its about the principle of it. hey asshole you crossed a line. I dont think he is embarrassed, i dont think he cares. why would he? the only thing he probably cares about is not being able to grasp his cock with both hands anymore. i dont have to. but that doesnt change the fanatical idiots out there. and as you say, if you dont like my opinion on it you dont have to read it. you said "And those players/celebs have ruined it for everyone so fortunately or unfortunately, that's the price they ALL pay for fame fortune rockstar lifestyle and adoration." then say "If an athlete REALLY wants to be private--he can." which way is it?
Do you not want to know who was in the Mitchell Report? I do. Every last one of those cheating fucks--I want them to be held accountable and they never will be if the public doesn't find out because MLB wants to shield them. How do you suppose Goodell and the Pats would be held accountable? Without the tapes being leaked to the public? Goodell and the Pats proved that they never will be by having the tapes destroyed. And my point about public versus private is a subtle one. Every one of those guys is now a public figure--but if you try REALLY hard, you can shield yourself and your loved ones from being put in the public eye. I don't think Schefter and ESPN did anything illegal--the hospital did for sure and unless we find out Schefter was instrumental in the hospital workers stealing the records, then all he did was investigate a story as slimy and unseemly as it may be, but not break the law. A picture of medical records is just confirmation of what we all knew. It did nothing to further hurt, embarrass, humiliate, invade the privacy of JPP or cost him $$. Maybe technically it may have invaded his privacy but a news organization can look to the First Amendment for protection, and besides--the entire public knew what occurred. Btw, if Ray Rice's video was never leaked then maybe the country wouldn't have had as visceral reaction to what he did. And he'd be playing football again. If we had video of what Randy Gregory did he would never have played football again or gotten a dime of the publics money. Fuck them all, don't be a criminal, don't beat up women, don't be a complete fucktard and blow off your hand if you don't want to be in the news. Be David Wright. Be Derek Jeter. _
I don't look for any validation of anything on this board and the real posters on here know it. You are a bad fucking joke with an agenda. I didn't say one thing to defend the Pats. I pointed out that you make up facts to further your agenda, which is exactly what you do. Look at this post! You regurgitated the same bullshit you serve up all the time. Everything EXCEPT what was actually being discussed. BTW, don't tell me to STFU. It's not your board in case you haven't forgot.
