So, I know this story is a few days old, but you'll have to excuse me, because I've been on my Central Mass lacrosse grind for a few weeks now.
That said, I'd like to take time away from the cutthroat world of local high school sports to focus on something less serious: The NFL.
More specifically, a hilariously oblivious lawsuit filed by a few New England Patriots fans against the NFL, apparently attempting to get their favorite team's first round draft pick back, but probably just to get attention.
The suit, filed in Federal Court in Boston earlier this week, cites "emotional distress," and accuses the league and commissioner Roger Goodell of fraud and negligence.
Let's begin to unpack this ground-breaking case, with some quotes pulled from the suit by CBS Boston.
