Bob Kraft is a Bad Boy
ESPN’s Seth Wickersham dropped a story today about… Spygate. Yup, this fucking thing won’t go away. Which to me is fine. I’ve excepted that the Pats flirt and have gone over the line when it comes to breaking the rules. I have also excepted that every other fan base has their panties in a bunch not because of the alleged cheating, but because of the excessive winning. I am a born skeptic. Nothing is as it looks people, wake up.
The NFL tried to combat the Specter inquiry with public statements from teams that were the primary victims of New England's spying, saying the league had done its due diligence. It wasn't working.
But there was one man, a mutual friend of Specter and Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who believed that he could make the investigation go away. He was a famous businessman and reality television star who routinely threw money at politicians to try to curry favor, whether it worked or not. He had been a generous political patron of Specter's for two decades.
Which is the same approach I have with this story. Here’s the jist; In 2008 Arlen Specter, Republican Senator of Pennsylvania, took on a one man investigation/ assault on the NFL, the Patriots, Mr. Kraft, and the Spy Gate investigation. Yes. A United States Senator invested the tax payers money and his time into this while the country’s economy crumbled and two wars were being fought. What this new story reveals is that allegedly Mr. Kraft had none other than former President of the United States and infamous pussy grabber, Donald Trump issue a not so vailed bride to Mr. Spector if he would stop the investigation into Spy Gate.
“…You can't walk up to a U.S. senator and say my friend has a big bag of cash for you, even if it's campaign money, if you would drop your investigation. That's a bribe."
The story is long and super interesting. It’s worth the read, but here’s what I’ll say. All of these snakes are playing in the mud. You are talking about the NFL and the U.S. Congress. The two most corrupt entities the country proudly displays to the world. What the shit do you think goes on? Godell was openly afraid of an investigation into the NFL. Think about the mountain of bones falling out of that skeleton closet. We are dealing with old dudes with billions of dollars and endless power. This is how they operate.
And hey Patriots haters. Take a breath. Your white night is a 50 year U.S. Senator who years after this “noble quest” went back to Kraft digging for “extortiony” campaign contributions. How pure do you believe this man’s motives could be? When you have a second go do a little research on Specter and his reputation in the Senate. Again for 50 years. 50 fucking years. You don’t keep that office without yanking some cranks. Or is cranking yanks? I digress. I mean for fucks sake, Trump and Specter’s mutual friend was god damn Bond villain Roger Stone.
Of course Mr. Kraft, Belichick, and the Pats do not go with out their share of the blame. Bob Kraft has been rocking Air Force Ones, $10,000 suits, and aviators for a decade. You don’t get that fly with out a little bad boy vein running though you. I bet that was his attraction to Trump as a buddy. Back in the cocaine 80’s I’m sure they crossed paths. Kraft saw a reckless real estate heir rippin’ bumps of ladies of the night and was like,
“This sumabitch is a wild card” and every crew needs a wild card.
So, who’s to say Kraft even gave Donald the go ahead to make the bribe? Maybe Trump was just pissed is buddy was getting dragged through the mud so he committed a quick felony for him. (Allegedly) That’s what buddies do. Ask Putin.
And speaking of allegedly. The source for this never ending story is Spector’s son. And ghost writer of his books! Is there a new book about Spector out this year you might ask? Why YES! There is. Follow the damn money and corrupt motivation. Nothing is as you see it. Lil Shanin (No favors were given with that name) and his Daddy were sad because the big bad Patriots beat his favorite footy wooty team.
Now Shanin Specter says he was proud of his father, who he felt "did a great job" in pursuing the truth about Spygate. "He was alone, but so what? He was used to that," he said. "He was a football fan who felt he'd been cheated and a senator who felt the NFL needed to police themselves in order to maintain their congressional-awarded antitrust exemption. He was right on both counts. Now we know Belichick was, and is, a serial cheater and, in this instance, his boss closed ranks behind him."
Donovan McNabb Puked on himself. Literally.
P.S. Comcast was in a battle with the NFL at this time. Comcast, a Philadelphia based company, was also one of Specter’s largest political donors and supporters. (Sarcastic perplexed emoji smile face guy)
