The Senator Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 From the tabloid known as the Boston Herald... Angry fan threatens Flutie, kin (link) By Norman Miller/ MetroWest Daily News Tuesday, November 14, 2006 FRAMINGHAM - An unhinged Texas Longhorn fan who blames Doug Flutie’s televised analysis for the team’s upset Saturday threatened the former football star and his family in an electronic mail message, police said. The threat, which was not detailed by police, was sent to the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism early Sunday, police Lt. Paul Shastany said. “We have intentions of finding this person and speaking to this person,” said Shastany. “As threats go, it’s a pretty serious incident.” Although the exact nature of the threat was not disclosed, the man, who investigators believe lives in California, wrote, “You jinxed the Longhorn faithful and a chance at the national title,” Shastany said. Flutie is a college football analyst for ABC and ESPN. His playing career included winning a Heisman Trophy with Boston College in 1984, two stints with the Patriots and several championships in Canada. The Texas Longhorns were upset Saturday, when Kansas State beat them 45-42. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
