So, you're beef with Felger is that he isn't 100% right in his predictions? That's a bit unfair, isn't it?F
Like has been argued in every single one of these threads, Felger (and other sports writers) has to take a side. This is especially true on the radio. And it can't be nuanced and it has to be a bit bombastic. Fact not opinion, cap is crap, Green Teamers, Carmine, these are just established buzz words that they go to make their point so they don't have to spend 1/3 of their show explaining what they mean for the eight millionth time.
Unlike other media members, Felger does admit when he's wrong (he never apologizes though, which is par for the course) but on his big things, he's not going to do that. So the Pats can crush the Jets every week and Felger is not going to admit that he was wrong about Cap is Crap. Nor is he going to admit that for two years he and Maz said that "The Pats can't beat the Jets" despite the fact that the Patriots had a winning record against NYJ and that the duo were cherry-picking wins and losses as "good" and "bad". Most of the time things like the above just fade off into the ether when proven wrong.
Writers are never, ever, ever, ever going to say that they're wrong. Look at Nick Cafardo, all year he banged the Bobby Valentine drum despite it being a complete and total shit show. Has he said, "Maybe Valentine shouldn't have been the manager of this nine?" Fuck no. He just shifts the blame to the owners, the fans, the players, everyone except his binkie.
