Jon Stewart Trashes Patriots, NFL’s ‘F*cked-Up Priorities’

 

Jon Stewart tonight trashed the Patriots over “Ballghazi” and went after the NFL for some “fucked-up priorities” about what’s worth punishing people over. DeflateGate––or as Stewart called it, “the Ballocaust”––has gotten the Pats in a spot of trouble ahead of the Super Bowl.

Stewart mocked Bill Belichick‘s lecture on “Made-Up Bullshit Sports Physics 101” and how clearly, the villain in this saga is a locker room attendant “drunk on his own power.”

He also went after the NFL for threatening to fine Marshawn Lynch half a million dollars if he didn’t go to media day (leading to Lynch just giving the same non-answer to every question). And this wasn’t even the “stupidest iteration of the NFL’s fucked-up priorities” that Stewart found.
