MERGED - Our long regional nightmare is over (Borges Plagiarism)

[Bandwagoneer*]

I hope Borges had fun getting in his shots today, because it's never going to happen again...

CHFF just caught him plagiarizing a column from a Tacoma paper that ran last week.

It's so bad that at one point Ratboy lifts an entire PARAGRAPH without changing a single word and only adding a (superfluous) comma.


I'm calling this the best Patriots weekend since Super Bowl XXXIX. Say high to Ken Powers in the unemployment line you piece of SHIT.

I really hope they fry him. They won't I bet....but I can hope.

He urged full participation in the team's offseason program, including minicamps, but Jackson let it be known he would honor his contract, but nothing more. Jackson subsequently skipped the voluntary portions of minicamps.

Nice find by CFH.

I doubt anything comes of it though. Borges has been slandering BB with no justification for years and all the calls from local folk for his dismissal have fallen upon deaf ears.

Plagiarism is on a whole different level though so you never know.

If he was to get canned, all I can say to Ronnie is "Yes, I would like fries with that and can you supersize it as well."

God, I hate this POS.

After Patricia Smith and Barnicle I don't think they'll have a choice but to can his ugly hobbit ass. This isn't something that can be spun as simply having a contrary opinion.
The flag outside Felger's studio will probably be at half-mast tomorrow.

Unless they hide behindthe fact that the NY Times now owns them, but you gotta think they have to do it.

This is shaping up to be the best off season ever!

Would the proper punishment be to transfer him to New York, and make him cover the Jets?

Problem is, this isn't the first time that CHFF has bagged him:

Give some love to the folks at Patsfans. One of the posters sent it to CFH, they posted it on their site pretty quick afterwards. There were calls to have it sent to Florio at PFT but I'm not sure anyone did.
Great, great weekend to be a Pats fan

You get kicked out of college for this. He should lose his job and be forced to cover the Raiders

Even the Raiders are too good for him if he is indeed a plagiarist. More appropo would be Slippery Rock, or the school we made fun of as kids, Sam Houston Institute of Technology (S.H.I.T).

[taltos]

I agree that he should lose his job and get involved with the Raiders. He should become 's personal care attendant.

Borges will point to the disclaimer and might just survive.

Between the plagarism and the biased flip flop on Adalius Thomas, which itself was reckless given his MSNBC comments were there for all to see, if the Globe has any fortitude, they will indeed fire him.

Aside from the blatant plagiarism ....

This made me choke on my cigarette and spew coffee.





Nice find CHFF
