A Loss of Innocence.

Alright, maybe not, but it does sound dramatic. How about a loss of the feeling that all is well and good in the universe? Nah... I never really HAD that feeling. Well, suffice it to say that I am UNSATISFIED with the answer as to what THOSE THINGS are. Not that I don't believe you, I too waded through the snark infested waters of the internet (see how I did that? SKILLZ!) and found something similar, I believe the post was something like "the [futuristic pipe wrenches sporting bright yellow magnetic fields] are a post-modern interpretation of the bridge and lighthouse combo that can be seen at the entrance of the stadium" or some such nonsense. Post-modern, indeed. I never did trust them beatnik artists with them fancy berets tilted at some crazy angle. I however, have another, more sinister interpretation. Don't they look ever so slightly like some sort of futuristic razor???? Gillette Stadium... well, you do the math. I think I've uncovered a conspiracy. Anyway, regardless of their stated reason for existence, I think they're hideous and distracting... that's probably why the Pats win so much, all the visiting teams have one eye on THOSE, wondering what they could possibly be. And I, for one, will still be cringing everytime the ball is near the 50, trying desperately not to notice these offenses, and no doubt failing miserably. Pllllbbbbttt.
