Reason Number One the Pats Lost?

Update: At least someone found humor in the hoodie.

Let the finger-pointing begin. Whose fault was it that the New England Patriots lost to the New York Giants in the Super Bowl? Tom Brady? Bill Belichick? Or was it ... Bill Belichick's new hoodie?

Bostonist blames the hoodie. Belichick came out in a hoodie with the sleeves cut off at three quarters, but the hoodie was in a hot-red shade that no one could miss. One look, and anyone could tell that hoodie was trouble.

The hoodie drew attention from many media outlets. From the news papers, the Globe (who called the hoodie "splendid"), the San Diego Union-Tribune, the LA Times, the Detroit Free Press, and others.

Bostonist wants that red hoodie torched. We want it dead or alive. The hoodie has got to go, and surely Belichick knows it, too.

Of course, there are so many reasons besides the hoodie, but the hoodie is just much easier to deal with right now.
