Stating the obvious- that is your opinion and mine is that it is still sad. Although non's pointing out of the Patriots losing was his second most important is very close.
However, you can't say that your opinion is logic when it is just as much opinion as mine or non's. Although I don't share in the view of something recent taking greater importance than an event that occurred years earlier.
Basically, what this guy said reminded me of a verse,(just so you can see where I was coming from)1 Peter 1:24-25.

I feel it's short sighted to take a comment and brandish such a broad stroke over someones life that they never met or even know in person. In my opinion, that's very weak and short sighted.
Obviously, I'm ignorant to the person's full context, but I feel he was referring to professionally speaking the most important thing was the '72 season. The mentioning of the Patriots losing being the 2nd most important thing ... well ... personally my feeling is anytime something bad happening to someone else is something of great importance to you is awful. Maybe I was raised wrong, but I was always raised to hope for the best for others and raise yourself above, rather than push others down to give the illusion you are above.
In other words, be great by being great, not try to be great by others failures or shortcomings.
