Bill Simmons likes the Patriots. As a noted Boston sports fan, the soon-to-be HBO media personality likes the Celtics, Red Sox, and Bruins too. He is rarely shy when it comes to voicing his support for those teams.

Simmons took to Twitter Tuesday after his former employer, ESPN, published a lengthy story linking two major Patriots scandals, Spygate and Deflategate. His series of tweets reads like it could have come from any Patriots fan, granted one with millions of followers.
