Shank Confronts Bill Belichick - II

Here's the official Globe write-up of Shank's attempted ambush of Patriots coach Bill Belichick.

FOXBOROUGH — I came in peace. Truly.

I like and respect Bill Belichick. Like most of you, I think he might be the greatest football coach who ever lived.

But I just had to ask.

And to the surprise of no one . . . he had no answer. He didn’t want to go there.

So it looks like we might never know why Malcolm Butler didn’t play in Super Bowl LII. It’s become one of the unsolved mysteries of all time, along with the lost city of Atlantis, Stonehenge, and who killed JFK. There are theories all over the place, but we still have no definitive answer.

Oh, please - just do some fucking research, maybe read your own paper for once? What a lazy hack - quit pretending 'we might never know'. What a douchebag!

Shameless Shank Shaughnessy - III

Not like we're gonna get a retraction by Shank, but this looks like the reason Belichick benched Malcom Butler for the game:

Writer at PFF reports Butler missed curfew, got caught with weed, had a meltdown on the coaches. As they say, big if true. https://t.co/NrKq3sh0Nm pic.twitter.com/TO9z6bNpcK
