Given the recent violence everywhere in America, this stuff is far too provocative.

He was making a somewhat different but equally stupid point.

Given the recent fan violence in Los Angeles, this is an issue that is should be taken seriously. I wish I had a better example of how these things are instigated than the Baldwin/Krasinski commercials.

Anybody vicious enough or stupid enough to commit a crime like the one in LA doesn’t need a commercial to set them off.

It was Krasinski who alluded to the Yankees being “dead in October”…Baldwin made no such threats.

When writing an article, it helps to have the basic facts correct. I know, I know…crazy concept for the Daily News, but still…

He mentions that he ran, and that there was traffic on the LIE. I know Alec Baldwin’s a pretty impressive man, but running from NYC to Boston is going to take a while.
