Sean Spicer Resigns, Now Has Plenty Of Time To Watch Beloved Patriots

Sean Spicer resigned as White House press secretary Friday, over a disagreement with President Donald Trump about Anthony Scaramucci’s appointment as communications director, The New York Times reported.

But we think we know the real reason Spicer is calling it quits: NFL season is just around the corner.

Spicer was born in New York, but he grew up in Rhode Island, where he also attended Brown University. Over the years, Spicer gravitated toward the New England Patriots, and he considers himself a diehard fan of the five-time Super Bowl winners — perhaps to the dismay of most of the region’s blue-leaning residents.

And on and on and on — Spicer has ton of Patriots-related tweets on his account. Spicer even used the Patriots to take a jab at Hillary Clinton during one of his now-famous press briefings. And who could forget the time Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski crashed one of Spicer’s press briefings during the team’s trip to the White House?

Assuming the now-former press secretary doesn’t land a cable TV gig, he now has plenty of time to dig in for the 2017 season — and in just in time, as the Patriots open training camp next week.
