Ben Affleck found out the Bills were whooping his beloved Patriots in the middle of an interview
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
A press junket is a grueling, athletic gauntlet for an actor. They have to sit in a chair all day long and see reporter, after reporter, after reporter — all of whom are generally asking the same questions. On Sunday Ben Affleck was speaking about his new film The Accountant, which meant he couldn’t be watching his beloved Patriots. Fortunately (or unfortunately) Sports Illustrated was there to break the bad news.
Affleck looks at his phone a lot, but there’s a good chance he didn’t have good enough reception to check the scores. Watching him find out is priceless.
“Rex Ryan ... f***.”
Affleck is every Patriots fan.
