Boston Globe writer Kevin Paul Dupont tweeted out some thoughts while watching the NFC Championship game. He speculated that Lynch drives a car with “crank windows, stick shift and a big ol’ hood ornament.”

Was this racist? It seems borderline, certainly seems in poor taste and probably something he should’ve kept to himself.

I’m assuming he didn’t see this picture of Lynch’s car from last weekend. Lynch drove his Lamborghini Aventador to get some donuts before the game. That car has a retail price of about $397,500, no hood ornament and definitely no crank windows.
