I know I watch far too much TV. I know it’s the coward’s way out to blame my wife for this one. But I’ll be damned if Boston Herald reporter John Tomase, who wrote the explosive and since-retracted report that the Patriots taped the Rams’ final walk-through practice before the 2002 Super Bowl, isn’t a dead ringer for Joshua “Skippy” Gad.
