Who is Matt Walsh?
Well, we are finding out more and more and quite honestly, the reports seem to worsen with each story and investigation.
I haven’t quite figured out why he would need immunity or protection. He was a videotape assistant. He was basically, for a lack of a better term and no disrespect intended, a nobody.
But upon looking at his resume, he has issues. He apparently is a confused guy.
Maybe golf is the niche he fell for later in his 20s, which is not uncommon. I have a brother who is a golf professional in his early 20s after never playing in high school or college. I can understand that attraction.
I’ve covered the Patriots since 1991, and like Bill Belichick I couldn’t pick Walsh out of lineup either. But he did look familiar, as if I had seen him before. I just wouldn’t know where.
Walsh’s resume will be a problem. His job-jumping and impending exit from the Patriots organizating has the look of “a woman scorned,” as English playwright Willliam Congreve noted (William Shakespeare later used it).
For his sake, Walsh had better have proof, as in names, times and Belichick’s statements.
Why does Walsh have tapes and other assorted properties of the Patriots? Lord only knows.
The Patriots, particuarly Bill Belichick, have come out strongly saying they know nothing about Walsh’s “information.”
So the ball is in his court. It had better be a good ball.
