Boston is a very insulated and sheltered place. Most adult football fans there grew up without televisions, radios, or other means of staying connected with the outside world. It is this characteristic that leads to the blithe street-naivete one finds among the working class residents of Boston and its inner-ring suburbs.

It breaks my heart that an entire region of the country doesn't have the ability to participate articulately in debates about whether "establishing the run" is cover for a bad quarterback or an effort to keep a defense on its toes.
I think a not-for-profit needs to be started, perhaps with the support of the United Way, to educate the neglected New Englanders on football.
