Portnoy contradicts himself as he shares ‘unfair’ | Sports News

Dave Portnoy believes his New England Patriots had an “unfair” drawback of their one-sided Super Bowl defeat to the Seattle Seahawks. 

With the mud settled after the Pats have been blown away by the Seahawks, Portnoy mentioned in a social media video that he wouldn’t make excuses for his crew’s defeat. 

But in the identical breath, he believes the deck was stacked towards New England by having to play on the West Coast and acclimatize to Pacific Time.

“I’ve got to be honest. I haven’t brought this up yet. I think it’s a huge advantage for Seattle playing the Super Bowl on the West Coast, where they live and not having to adjust to the time difference,” he mentioned.  

“I’m still all out of whack. I was out of whack when I got there. [The] Patriots had to be out of whack. It’s unfair.

“I get that people do it, but it seems like every Super Bowl is on West Coast. It’s a huge advantage for the West Coast teams. Your body isn’t ready. Whatever. I won’t make excuses.”

Maye, nevertheless, refused to make excuses for his poor efficiency. He revealed that he had a pain-relieving injection earlier than the sport and that he felt healthy enough to offer his best. 

“I was feeling like I was able to make throws in the game and was myself,” he mentioned. 

At an end-of-season press convention in Foxborough on Tuesday, Maye added that he is not going to need surgical procedure. 

“Time is the best healer,” Maye mentioned. “Just need time off. Nothing that needs anything to be done. Just need time to rest and time away from football.

“Ten weeks till we’re back right here,” Maye said. “That do not sound too distant. It turns round shortly on you. I’m wanting ahead to it.”
