he does have a kid of his own, and apparently when his kid was born, he missed 1 day to spend time with his daughter. that's exactly what Horford did too. but Felger thinks it's wrong when Al does it.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

The birth of a child is a life-changing experience.

I was fortunate enough to be there to cut BOTH of my son's umbilical cords.

Al Horford is to be commended for being there to experience the same, and I'm proud of our C's for beating MIA (and Whiteside) without him.

Who is this Felcher guy anyway and how does he come to be a 'sports personality' ?

A hot take featuring retrograde views about gender roles?  I can't wait for Felger to accuse his critics of being SJWs (or, as I like to call them, non-sociopaths).

People criticizing this are idiots, we still won, get over it.   Felger pretty much hates the Celtics, one can only hope the social justice warriors make his life living heck out of these comments.

someone actually criticized him for it?... or is this one of those things where people are outraged about fake outrage.

Apparently he's a local guy whose opinions everyone hates but listen to anyway, guaranteeing more terrible opinions for the future. Get the impression he's like a low-rent Skip Bayless. 

Also TP for the intentional/autocorrect spelling.

Talking to Tomase, Felger sarcastically calls himself the devil.  No Felger, you're not the Devil. 
You're an idiot.  Nothing less nothing more.

Of course it's a no-brainer.  The only debatable question is whether it's still a no-brainer if it's a playoff game.

Thanks. I am part of the older crowd who can remember when the Boston Globe Sports was the reason to buy it.

TP for bringing back a great memory.

EDIT #2: Apparently it was Felger who criticized Horford. Al's sister had the correct response, IMO.

Main reason to ignore this.
The Nets will finish with the worst record and the Celtics will end up with the 4th pick.

Felger has it made. He gets paid a lot of money to make up crazy stuff to stir up the local driving community sitting in traffic after they may already be annoyed from a day of work. He doesn't know that much about sports, but he does know how to get under people's skin.

LB, you may have missed your calling!

I called him a couple years ago to tell him that he was being a blowhard b/c the Pats didn't resign Revis. He had a bunch of crap to spew, then two years later, I was the one laughing, though he's still making bank.

*That being said, I can't wait to tune into his station at 2pm to hear him get hammered.
